Stoke in the first 20 minutes are showing how bad Man City midfield and defence is. Man City will mostly lose this match due to Willy Caballero.

Barcelona of the Premier League.

Game over 0 2

Brilliant assist by De Bruyne.

 

And Aguero is by far the best striker in the league.....until he gets injured in a couple of weeks.

Long as Costa is better than Giroud and whatever sad person Liverpool has as their #9 I will be happy...for now

Not with Zlatan around, who's proving Ligue 1 or PL doesn't matter to him.

He's a class above the rest thoguh. Never won the Golden Boot in his life but his goal-scoring rate is ridiculous.

I like Mike dean call. Play the ball, if you play the man it has to be penalty everytime

[superfrank8 23]

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Terry get his shirt torn by a West Ham defender last week during a corner and no pen was awarded for that? Aguero has his arm held and a pen is given straight away whereas the foul by Kolarov was clearly a late tackle and the ref totally ignores it..

Just can't see past Manchester for 1st and 2nd. Neither team have even meshed but have cruised in their first few matches.

Seeing as how our board has thus far failed to back Conte with the players we'll need to compete with those two, 3rd is really the highest I think we can achieve. That could change before the window closes but it's not looking likely. We're failing with nearly every target.

[Laylabelle 9,296]

Yeah same.mean long way to go and things change but starting strong and playing well before they mesh..

Nah can't see us finishing higher then 3Rd which be happy with but at the same time so annoyed that again the signings we needed weren't made..then again 3Rd may be a bit optimistic just have to see 

Pen for Stoke...2-1

[iceboy 992]

Joke penalty

[Pizy 17,860]

How was that a pen? 

[xPetrCechx 13,546]

MIKE DEAN IS ON CRACK!

[DYC. 7,542]

If the plan is to let Remy go, I'd seriously go for Arnautovic. A bit of an enigma, very hot and cold but a talented forward, offering power, technique and versatility. Costa, Michy and Marko would be a good strike force.

Mam City created nothing nothing in the second half.

created that goal though.

Guardiola with De Bruyne-Fernandinho-Silva in midfield. Klopp with Wijnaldum-Henderson-Lallana in midfield. Starting a holding midfield-less tactical trend?
