Hard to see Man City losing any midfield battles this season. That partnership of Rodri and Kovacic must be so hard to play against. You can't get the bloody ball off them, and they hardly waste a pass.

 

[Reuben klang]

They had every intention of Greenwood being that striker.

Key word being had. That was 4 windows ago that audio and pictures were released.

They now find themselves in a situation that they may keep him because they're absolutely desperate.

 

[Bigpig]

No. You used to run the risk of an extended ban if the appeal was pointless (which this clearly wouldn't be) but that's been scrapped if I'm not mistaken.

Overturned then was a stupid red

I know but this summer imo they have sat down and essentially scratched the need for a striker off because if their intention to integrate Greenwood back into the squad. Now it looks like that might not happen for another 12 months.

City got to be careful here left Newcastle with abit of hope.

 

[Bigpig]

Botman and Schar have been great. Foden easily MOTM?

Crazy.

Newcastle might grab something here. Last 10 should be good.

Foden is like a cheat code this game

Pep

Always thought Schar is a bit underrated, dont watch loads of Newcastle but he always looks solid when I have

 

[the wopster]

We have been far better in the second half

 

[Bigpig]

If City is a slow starter. God help us!
Good save Pope

 

[Trusty]

No subs by Pep. He's such a weirdo

 

[montymint]

This score line flatters us. We’ve never stood a chance. If we fluke anything this game it’s 100% undeserved.

 

[Mark1989]

Just watched the high lights that red is pathetic, we have to appeal that

I think you've done well, you havent given up that much in the dangerous areas. Different day it could have been 1-1

Moans about too many games then doesn't make a sub...Could easily have brought Palmer or Phillips on.

We’ve done well to stem city. But it’s been at the cost of not being able to impose any authority up front.

Hopefully a wake up call for the deluded fans on twitter lol.

 

[Bigpig]

Not too disappointed. Played well defensively and City were superb. Hopefully Joelinton is not serious.

17 Home wins for City different gravy
