I didn't watch the game, I'm not sure if you did. But from what I can understand, there was a lot of time-wasting.

In this case it is annoying. I despise Spurs. However, it's very frustrating if your team is losing and the opposition are doing whatever they can to run the clock down. We've all been there.

So unlike a lot of rule changes, making the time added on more accurate is actually a pretty good one.

See us vs Newcastle last year, where they playacted their way to loads of added time, allowing us to score the winner in said added time.
 
Newcastle one wasn’t a pen.
Poundshop Rooney has to be the biggest cheat going in PL, he is building up some rep.

Thought it was a clear pen....skidded across the turf and cleaned the rat out, that keeper is a mess....he got lucky a minute earlier as well when Wilson has his goal chalked off, weak as piss.

He looked like he left his leg for the keeper. MOTD had a good slow mo of it.

Yeah - the slo-mo I saw looked like the horrible prick was on his way down writhing in pain before contact was made - If that was Salah, he’d likely be yellow carded for diving and then face a FA Tribunal for bringing the game into disrepute leading to a six game ban.
 
City are unstoppable.
If we're gonna have any chance of winning the league we have to perform like last time we did it and basically win every game
Can't trust anyone to beat them

I disagree - I saw the highlights on MOTD of City's game against West Ham. Honestly thought West Ham had some good chances for the game to be a draw at least, their decision making in the final third was not good enough at times especially not passing out to the right when attacking. Also the Alvarez guy for West Ham, really did take the fight to Rodri from what I saw. I better coach - a more attacking one will have won that game for West Ham.

City look unstoppable, but this is the first time I have seen a City team having its final third breached so many times in a game, there is something wrong with them, the game against Sheffield United, and even in their first game against Burnley - teams you would not expect to get out of their half more than 3 times in a game were playing through their (City's midfield) more than 7 times at least in their games. If they face up to teams that have a dynamic attack - I guarantee City will struggle. The biggest fear I have for us, is that we seem to be getting into the habit of making comebacks (except the Villa game) - we really need to sort out our shit but then it's to be expected as this new midfield works itself out.

We've lost the league twice relying on other teams to beat City.

They will lose, watch them against the teams where there is an intent to attack, and the front line are more clinical. They will come undone, - it's been going on for too long now, also I know a lot of people on here put it down to money - yes that's true when it comes to their depth in previous seasons especially, but in reality they have bought like us, Pep made those players world class just like Klopp did with our first generation. But the way Pep sets up and plays the game, he an get more out of them for longer than our energy sapping system. Hopefully now that we have a midfield of ball controllers with press resistant ability plus energy to run, things maybe looking up for us. Its not the first time that City are winning all their games - remember the 4-3 game at Anfield ? - we were the first team to beat them that season - and it did not take place till late Dec/early Jan if I recall.

No no this is a different animal, it's not even an animal it's a monster. We've seen Man U come and go, Arsenal and Chelsea too. Those three teams were beasts but they could be beaten. City has taken it to a different level.
Yeah, I know, it sounds some like I'm sensationalising it, but that's how I see it.
This City team has done things I've never seen another team do, consistently.
Before City, no other team reached 100 points in the Prem.
No one managed to win all domestic cups in one season.
No one has won the league four times in a row. These fuckers might do it.
 
Chelsea have spent 1 billion £ and this is the team and squad they name. Fucking hell.
 
Weather is grim here. Gonna be mistakes and plenty of fouls.

Sterling on a yellow within 5 minutes.
 
City do look different these days, they used to feel vulnerable when the big names were injured but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

The only positive is that the West Ham match has been their most difficult on paper so far, hasn’t it? They’ve got us, United, Brighton and Arsenal on the horizon. Those fixtures will tell us how the season will pan out, probably 12 points to them…

Nobody has cheated their way to the top and continously gotten away with it, either... They're cheats. Their achievements mean less than nothing.

Sure, to me, to you, to a lot of LFC fans and fans of other teams. But the record books will still have their name in it.
