Other games 24-26 Feb

[binomial]

Sesko finally gets his goal albeit with the help of a deflection that wrong foots Neuer. He's gonna be a big player in the future.

 

[Modo]

They don't. They are a possession based team.

I need proof 😉

 

[Beamrider]

In case anyone was planning on watching the Arsenal game in the hope they might drop points, save yourselves the bother. Karius starts in goal for the geordies.

 

[Modo]

City looking tired. Bournemouth could score any minute now

 

[binomial]

Kane in stoppage time, another remarkable finish. Good play from Choupo Moting tbf.

Interesting VAR call coming here…was Moting offside?

 

[Modo]

Bournemouth could have scored an equaliser. City were there for the taking.
Bournemouth had several chances in the second half.
I'm getting more and more convinced that they'll drop more points.

This is what City do. Just enough.

Its the hope that kills you.

 

[King Binny]

Is it just me or doesn't City run as much as we do? I'm thinking, how come they don't get that many injuries...
@King Binny do you have any stats regarding that?

Distance covered? Can only find current season's latest info for individual players on that.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!!!

Karius starting against Arsenal.

 

[binomial]

Arsenal lining up with their strongest XI (for about the 100th game in a row), City could've gone with their strongest XI if they wanted.

Must be nice eh? Cunts.

It’s Anthony Gordon’s birthday? Shit, no way! How rude of me.
Happy Birthday Anthony.
You ugly diving ginger twat.
Now go bag the winner.

Oh so they do run more than us...

 

[Fabio]

Newcastle, riddled with injuries, are shite

 

[Dreambeliever]

Arsenal cruising while City limp over the line.

 

[The Nomad]

This is a bit shit.

 

[Modo]

15 goals, zero conceded in the last 3 PL games.
Maybe these fuckers won't bottle it this time around.

 

[white-sox]

Guardiola just said man city and Bournemouth aren't on the same level field as they had extra rest. Are you kidding me?! Can't wait till that ball bag of a club get sent down.

Lol.

They were top at Christmas, they already have when they went on their crap run. That's with Haaland and KDB out for months and us missing about half our team.

15 goals 0 conceded in last 3, that's all well and good. Still 3rd though.

 

[binomial]

1 conceded.

They're no longer invincible!!!!

Bottled it and still just 2 points behind us?
They have a few more "easy" games up ahead, but from mid March til the end of April they play Chelsea, City, Brighton, Villa, Wolves and Spurs. In interesting fixture list to say the least.

 

[Modo]

I'm partying like it's 1999

 

[Modo]

Just saw their 3rd and 4th goal.
I guess Karius finally went Karius on them.

They were like 2-3 ahead at Christmas, so how do you explain them now being 2 behind going into March despite this historic, never to be seen again, never to be forgotten 15-1 in their last 3 games.

Genuine title contenders would push on and create a gap when your rivals lose key players to long injuries, they've done the opposite.

But I wouldn't say that they bottled it. They beat us and that was enough to be back in it.
Bottling it would mean that they're totally out of the race. That was a slump.

 

[Fabio]

Tbh they were cruising until march last year. Then their arse went. Be interesting to see how they get on with CL as well

Back in it, not in it, back in it, not in it.

Never were for me and the last 3 results doesn't change anything. They're a good side but not a great side. We and unfortunately City are. Porto are decent at best and even they managed to expose them.

Non injuries and an incredible amount luck (just taking the Liverpool games alone) are why they're only 2 points behind.

They certainly look a different animal since thumping us. Confidence sky high and blowing teams away. Reminds me of us in the second half of the 13/14 season.

Hopefully it doesn’t last.

6 wins in a row now, not three.

 

[Frogfish]

Oh so they do run more than us...

That was back in Sept after 4 games (not the Foden stat). I'd be very surprised if they do (eye-test).

Yeah I see your point
