Un-fucking-believable. City snatch 3 points well after the whistle should've been blown.

Fuck off.

 Fuck off Sterling

Oof. That is some shit defending from Ake.

He has been absolutely horrible, and I am being nice.

What a pointless ending off! Never get that rule. If he went to the Bormouth fans fair enough but just stupid. Them again it's Mike Dean.

Got to laugh at the officials in this country.

City doesn't seem to be better than last season at all. If City doesn't win the title he will be a real fraud.

Especially when you see players get sod all for dangerous tackling and then celebrate and show emotion off you go

You can't blame Mike Dean for red card.

The problem is the rule that you can't celebrate with fans but that's FA problem.

Mike Dean was just doing his job...

The rule is just so stupid.

Nah for me any rule you should put a context into it and put some common sense. If he scored in the 1st half and he did that then a yellow card was  the correct decision but it was a game winner

Anyone remember Costa being late to the celebration party in a match last season because he was on a yellow? It's a dumb rule, but it's one you as a player have to remember.

City win after the whistle should have blown. Not to mention win it off a free kick that gave them possession from what was a clean tackle.

I'd argue it's worse when it's the game winner. The supporters were in a frenzy already, with some of them coming onto the pitch. They didn't need Sterling riling them up any more. It's a rule in place for safety for the supporters, the stewards and the players.

West Ham are SHIT. Hopefully this is the season they're sent back down.

[communicate 2,703]

Bad defending and bad goalkeeping

[Laylabelle 9,534]

And 2-0...boo

[Tautvix 1,321]

This United will be really hard to stop. No doubt about that. We must stay in touching distance from them if we stand any chance of winning the title.

Mourinho and United fans are probably over the moon so far. Literally couldn't have asked for a better start to their season. Piss easy start to their PL season where they've now got 9 points from 9, have a +10 goal difference already, and have yet to concede a single goal yet. You can say that their opposition has barely tested them but they've been impressive.

On top of all that, they get such an absolute joke of a CL draw that they can probably rest all of their best players and still top the group.

I think the only real difference between them and us is depth. Their best XI is on par with ours but they can bring on several game changers unlike ourselves. Just read on Twitter that 7 or their 10 goals thus far have come from subs. That's what you need when you're in 4 competitions. This is where we'll fall away from the Manchester clubs unless we are very busy next week.

There is no way we can match united depth. They are loaded, because they can spend and spend without having to make tons of sale every season.

I think if we made about 3 more signings we'd have nice depth. Unfortunately, I think we'll probably only make 1 if I had to bet money on it.

Asking for 3 more signings is too much. At this point even 1 is hard. Not sure any quality player is available. At wb almost impossible but I still believe we can sign one more midfielders.
