Embarrassing how much smoke is being blown up Man City's backside on this forum.

Objective statement: "Treble winners as it turns out were actually very good, completely in control, deservedly beat us 3-0, and we couldn't lay a glove on them"

equinox: *wipes coke from nose while sniffing* "God it's embarrassing how much smoke is being blown up Man City's backside on this forum"

Aye, righto pal.

I thought Vinny didn't agree with the taking the knee stuff?
Didn't he choose for our team not to do it last season?
Last season when it was optional Burnley didn’t take the knee.
But now it’s a Premier League directive we are doing it
Hypocritical in my eyes

If you are booing players protesting against racism you are a tit whatever way you attempt to spin it on here. Another negative bloody referees at this level.

Plus points exciting players we’ll be fine when we aren’t playing teams that can pay 100 million for each position.
But when those same players had the option last season they didn’t. Just saying

We will not play that system we’ve not got 7 wingers to play two strikers! Time will tell, our success last season consisted of zaroury hugging the touch line and benson whipping crosses / goals in and none of them started so in vinny we trust

Positives: We definitely laid a glove or two on them despite their obvious superiority. Trafford wasn't overworked. City had to work hard and the main difference was Haaland.
I have to think hard to find a negative and that tells me there weren't any.

Great workout for our new look team and confidence gained from that and Kompany's assertion that this team will get stronger as the season progresses.

Good season ahead.

We need a left back. Vitinho isn't the answer and anyway isn't he a right back?
Poor first goal and not a good headed clearance for their third, nonetheless some neat and encouraging play.
