Hope there is a big European night feel to this

I can't believe he's had 2 starts and only 7 appearances overall. Could easily have played in the Chelsea team of this season

We've sold him for 15m euros. Haven't read about a buyback clause

Athletic subscriptions are worth it?

Gosens? Now that Pasalic has joined Atalanta permanently for a decent price

I dont think starting Bats instead of Giroud changed the result

I wish I had stopped watching. Players have put down their tools early.

Pedro wow. What was that. Pedro willian Bats. I am done. Good night

There wasn't a need to overrule the ref there

How fucking lucky are United but really we shouldn't be allowing this game get down to luck!

Fuck VAR

Well. Fuck it. We are not finishing top 4.

Kante's absence is felt on the right side.

Has to be James

Oh fuck off. Engels missed a clearance and Son scores. typical

The deeper implications are huge. City are out of the running for virtually every big player including Sancho! City's own players will want to leave the club. Will Real Madrid or Barcelona tempt De Bruyne? Pep will be heading for the exit door too! All of this in a season that is already spiraling. The club had it coming

Get 4th please. I don't trust this 5th place thing

Take a chill pill

Buzzing. 38m is a GREAT price in this market and its smart to get this done early rather than wait and put all the eggs in the Sancho basket.

I read he's a Chelsea fan, idolised Drogba, Lampard and is friends with Tammy, Callum etc. That may be why?

Absolutely. I shudder to think of this season under Sarri. Azpi, Willian, Pedro, Alonso plodding in the 4-3-3 with Giroud/Bats up-front!

Kepa James Rudi Tomori Emerson Jorginho Kovacic CHO Mount Pulisic Abraham Just want to see one team with Kante, Azpi, Willian and Christensen benched

Tomori for Christensen? Tomori's presence could have helped the left hand side of defense where Azpilicueta was routinely by-passed.

Why is any of this a surprise? A bright start, slowly fading, no changes and concede twice.

Post-match after Arsenal, Lampard said that Jody rated Tariq. “I'd seen him when I was doing my coaching badges and you do a lot of hours with the academy and youth team,” Lampard said.“I saw him train a lot and I know he has a different dimension as a right-sided wing back.He has pace, low centre of gravity and can go by people. Of course he wants to work on his end product and all the last bits. My question to Jody when he came on was whether he had got the confidence and personality to deal with this, a tough game with responsibility to try and turn it. Jody said 'yeah, no problem'." Maybe oversight from the club in allowing Lamptey into the last six months of his contract before offering one.
