Apparently Bristol have taken the biggest ever away following of nearly 8k to the Etihad tonight.
Aguero is on the bench, Sterling playing through the middle.

Bristol look good, as they did against Utd, but if they continue to try and play out from the back whilst City press they will get caught out I reckon.

Bristol's a great place and the most underachieving sporting city in England, so they're right up for this

Would love em to win this. One less trophy for City the better. They've done a great job ripping into to their souless fans so far as well.

Did Aden Flint head the crossbar clearing the chip from Sterling?
He looked a bit woozy.

City have amazing fans. They took over ewood and Blackburn as a town long before any sheikh turned up under Joe Royle. That was in the championship.

I've never worked out why City paid the rumoured £30 million or so for Mangala...

Getting flashbacks to our fantastic first half against Spurs in the first leg of our semi final clash.
Hopefully Bristol don't concede 4 in the second half

Too much cider!
Great defending though. Like when Tarkowski anticipated a shot and got back on the line to clear.

These are different 'fans'. Lots of empty seats on view.

Very true Saxo, but sadly many of the old lot have become disillusioned and feel City is no long ‘their’ club.
Of course, some of them are happy to take the money and go with it.

To anyone cheering on Bristol City, and theres some big ifs here but:
If we finish 7th
If a top 6 team wins the FA Cup
Then if Bristol City win the league cup then they take our Europa League spot.

Sterling appears to have forgotten about his team mates when he's near goal..

I wouldnt worry about it. You'll be bottom half soon enough.

I would stay at home and watch us against lower league clubs on telly next year if that meant I had enough money to follow us in Europe.
It's bloody well expensive watching them big clubs.

1-1, just sensational..... look at the pass from the Goalkeeper under immense pressure, defence to attack in 1 pass. That's why Pep got rid of Joe Hart.

Pep replaced Hart with Bravo, realised that wasn't a great move and then went out and replaced Bravo with a far superior keeper.
That was my point.
Bravo is an accident waiting to happen, we saw that at the weekend and he looks nervy tonight.

But what relevance does that have to a pass just made by Bravo? I only said Pep replaced Hart because Hart can't use his feet like Pep wanted.

The pass by Bravo was good, but it didn't look like it was done calmly to me, he looked under pressure and passed like he was, just fortunate that De Bruyne was there.
Anyway, Aguero is on now, should be all over for Bristol soon.

Poor pass from Bravo there, his defender had nowhere to go with it.

Look how high the City centre backs push up the field, they're 40 yards from the Bristol goal. Suffocating.

I'm sure City are going the season unbeaten if they don't lose to Liverpool.
