City got battered like the albino child in a Nigerian village.

It seems as though, if Haaland doesn't fire, then neither do Man City. He's scoring for fun for Norway, but out of form/confidence in the premier league. Probably come to life in the new year, but by then, they'll only be chasing 2nd place.

They created enough shots in the game, and the Xg was similar, but Maddison was on one today and scored 9.2 on sofascore.

Could be one eye on the Champions league games as well.

Most fixed match of all time - Atletico Huila v Cucuta Deportivo, heavy backing on the overs on goals markets and home team heavily laid even when winning (started the game 2.24ish and were 1.8ish when 2-1 up in 60th minute). 3-2 going into ET and the away team missed the first of their penalties and were then awarded another a few minutes later to make it 3-3

My girlfriend's African, I had to get her go ahead before I could say that.
She laughed and said go ahead Casper
Last laugh is on her, I'm actually a pale white ghostly man....

If Liverpool win against City next week it's their title to lose!

Man Utd will almost certainly get a new manager bounce against Ipswich you would think.

Jeez pick that one out for Ipswich!!!

You do wonder what's going on at Man C now. I hope Pep doesn't sort it for a week or so.
He's now lost 4 on the bounce. Or rather he and his team have.
Can Rodri be so pivotal - I dont' think so. Is Pep losing his intensity? Maybe. New contract with nice payoffs if he's sacked.
They have suddenly gone from Champions elect to the next Man U. Clogged with ageing players on massive salaries and long contracts. The Fair Play stuff could plunge Man C into hell. They won't be able to spend their way out of that as they'll lose all their top players.

No partisan opinions here then.
Seriously, I know part of being a footy fan is to stick it to your rivals when they falter. But (apart from the cynical fouling on the counter) Man C have been a joy to watch for a looooong time.
Something seems awry.

As someone that would happily see Man City loose every game for the rest of season, i must admit they have been a good to watch at times,,,,(gawd that hurts to say,,,,, )

They had enough chances on the weekend to win that game, so maybe they are just having a sticky patch?

Are there too many players who think they just need to turn up, and actually don't know what is it like to have to fight for a game?

Have some of the players not played consistently enough to be able to get the "rhythm" going?

Do they know reputations could be torn apart at the end of march with the results of the 115 charges, so are some considering their options?

Teams know they need to be at120% to play City, so if City are only firing at 60% then rewards will be had.

You don't become a poor team overnight, so I expect a bit of a recovery, but hopefully not for another 2 weeks,,,,,

What ever is happening it is a good time to laugh at the Manchester clubs..... (but unfortunately it won't last for ever!!)
