Way to hold the line.
Sucks that they lost Pulisic and Sterling in the first 10 mins, I think we would have still won but.


Rico Lewis looked like he is going to challenge for starter.

B team is puttin it on.

Okay, that legit just made me cry laughing out loud.

Well that was a crap performance.

Well that was a screwjob.

I believe the phrase is Montreal Manchester Screwjob.

You had one shot on goal. 1. Uno.

That doesn't mean it shouldn't have been a draw.

Also doesn't mean that it was the reason why you lost.

Well sure it does. A right call there and it would be a draw.

That goal shouldn't have counted. Won't convince me Rashford's presence over the ball didn't impact how the defenders played that.

And I have no real reason to want that goal to be disallowed

As an Arsenal fan it benified us but that that should never have stood.

The only thing lower than the number of shots on goal City had is the level of responsibility City players/fans are taking for their **** performance.

Guess they decided to show up in the 2nd half.

I don't want to see whatever that crap was the first half again. That was abysmal soccer by our side.
It may be fun for the players to give the other team a nice little 2 goal head start out of fairness, but it's not fun for the fans.

The intensity they showed in the 2nd half compared to the 1st was miles above.

Mahrez being his usual brilliant self.

This is Haaland's world. We are just living in it.

The team seems to be really distraught over the allegations. Boat racing villa this morning

What a BS penalty. How does that affect the ball or play? What is the point of that penalty there?

Kevin is the reason we are top of the season.

That didn't last long

Why are we such crap without KDB on the field?

Looks like Newcastle is going to burn out early with that starting intensity

Should have been at least 2 more goals.

I think we are going to advance.

Goals, we have them.

Any Etihad tips? Going to the FA Cup match tomorrow.

Very cool. I've only been once. Make sure you don't go in the visitors entrance as there are separate entrances for visitors only, unless you are a Burnley fan.

Ticketing is pretty easy, they just require you to have your ticket barcode scanned. I screwed up and printed 2 of the same tickets and I was already inside the turnstile when my wife got rejected and had to go to the box office to get hers printed off. I felt bad but the staff was super friendly.

Remember, no food or drinks (other than maybe bottled water) can go down to your seats. Have to consume it all in the concession area, so go extra early if you plan on eating there.

Our hotel was near Piccadilly and we took a cab to the stadium but ended up getting out and walking about a mile because we just sat in traffic near the stadium. Took the Blue line back and walked about a mile to our hotel and figured we should have just done that on the way there. Felt completely safe walking on the streets at like 12am.

I've been once as well. You can actually walk from Eithad to town but its a nice little hike. If I remember it was about a 40-45 min walk. We looked for a cab but there was a lot of traffic and no cabs available so we just walked it.

No food or drink in the seats is surprising. Thanks for the heads up.

Now that I think about it. It was a CL match we went to. Perhaps you can bring beer down for non CL matches because I remember them saying something about it being Champions League rules.

Food though I remember they said we couldn't take either as a norm, but this was 5 years ago, so perhaps its changed, let us know.

So only no alcohol allowed in seats. Water & food ok.

What a performance tonight. The passing was amazing to watch.
