Do you think that City will be proud of their days work ?

Must be very hollow for both players and fans. No sense of achievement, no pride and no surprise.

Wouldn't really entice me.

Do they need to be that proud, as long as they win?

It’s a penalty for me. If he’d gone down instead of getting his shot away it would’ve been given. It’s still a foul and should’ve been given. These decisions don’t help in encouraging players to stay on their feet.

Yep, modern game.

I don't think any of them are penalties. Getting touched anywhere else doesn't constitute a fk nor should it in the box. Times change.

Foden booked for getting the ball and then showing disgust

Two own goals from Esteve?

Not sure I've seen that from a Burnley player before.

Does he get the match ball for a hat trick

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:46 pm

Poor angle from Walker

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:48 pm

Anthony gifts to Haaland. Dubravka saves day. Corner

Yeah, I think so. Shouldn't you always be proud of your day's work ?

Or is that an old concept ?

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:48 pm

Dubravka with a bood save after we gift Haaland with another good chance.

fidelcastro · Post by **fidelcastro** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:48 pm

Pretty pointless subs at this stage.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:48 pm

Humphreys and Hannibal

I'm sure they are proud, just not as proud as if they beat a title rival.

Good to see Humphreys back.

Same old story at this place. No wonder tickets went to general sale.

At least we tried to play football under Kompany

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:51 pm

Time for 5.

Well done City, very well done.

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:52 pm

Who let him get the cross over? Walker? Very poor marking. Ah well! Usual disaster.

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:52 pm

90mins keeping him relatively quiet then that

Leeds 2-2 late goal... Rovers losing.

The best I've got at the moment.

f uck. 5 Haaland

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:54 pm

Offside?

Really no need. Ball should have been given out left ages beforehand.

At least we scored 3 times

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:55 pm

Come from the offside.... then poor as a unit.

Not many want to remember this game from the back line.

Dumb and heartless finishl. A shame.

Ekdal ball to head. Wsteve comes in abd messes it up!

Bad day at the office for Esteve.

I hate the number 5.

Definitely some Chinese betting syndicate running this fixture lol how can we call the score every time we play them

fidelcastro · Post by **fidelcastro** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:56 pm

Towel thrown in during those last few minutes, which is unacceptable, regardless of the opposition!

BobSykes · Post by **BobSykes** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:56 pm

Respectability to humiliation in 45 minutes.

That's going to take some bouncing back from i suspect, coupled with the setback of Tuesday's embarrassment. And our assumed rivals not doing us any favours either.

I felt bullish at 4.05pm...

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Sat Sep 27, 2025 4:56 pm

Harsh scoreline but we brought on 2 late defensive subs then shipped 2 more goals.

That should be a lesson for us. It needed more attackers at the end to gamble at 1-3.

Esteve as had a day to forget that's for sure .

goal
GOAL - Man City 5-1 Burnley
published at 16:53 BST
16:53 BST
Erling Haaland (90+4 mins)

Make that two goals for Erling Haaland.

It's calamitous stuff at the back from Burnley as Maxime Esteve, who has scored two own goals, and Hjalmar Ekdal collide to leave Haaland clean through on goal.
