ostrich one 

Mount would have really added some spark here but I understand Tuchel resting him. With Christensen already injured, it’s not worth it playing him today.

small margins in these games against City now which is a testament to the improvement TT has made with this team

we're not out of it yet, thanks to Aguero

What is the point in us even participating in a game officiated by Anthony Taylor. 

Might as well save the bus fare and forfeit the games officiated by this blind, biased, incompetent, bald bafoon. 

Exactly. A weak pen for City, a goal scored by a player that should have been off.

Like I said was not to jynx Taylor really has it out for us.

Who’s the bastard in the black?

Bit of a training game going on TBH.  Mistake by Christensen and a couple of fluffed half chances and a comical penalty about sums this game up TBH.  At the start of the season we would have probably written this game off anyway; its the next 4 games that matter. 

Think we need Ziyech and Pulisic to switch sides. For some reason Tuchel has Pulisic on the right, with Ziyech on the left. Think if that’s reversed they’ll both be more dangerous.

it’s f**king always that the one who should be sent of then scores

f**kin always

No. No. Laugh at you. "At you". Not on you.

Not sure you can use this game to judge anything other than Anthony Taylor is just a #$#$@$$)$%#)?'?$)

People called it back then, but that soft red card for that west ham bloke means it's gonna take one of our players being seriously injured before someone gets sent off against us. 

He keeps ignoring reds against us. Piece of sh*te bald c*nt

If we can nick an equaliser and draw this 1-1, will be over the moon.

Such a flat game and to be honest, I'll be happy to lose if we beat them in the big one on the 29th May.

We need a good second half if we want anything. City is better here for me. They have a brilliant squad, best in Europe for me. Even their argued second string you have quality in every position. 

Anything over ziyech will be an improvement.. at this point.. the only playing in our forward line currently is Timo.. its so frustrating though seeing a clueless ref being allowed to participate in a big game.. he is an embarrassment.. and the sad part is there will be no action taken on his underperformance..

Suarez, Maguire, Sterling. 

Always in massive games.

 

That’s never a pen he has run across Gilmore and away from the ball and tangled legs

It's clearly that Ziyech prefers to play on right, in his first attack he created a shot, he is more dangerous when he switches from right to left and has a vision to goal.

 

I hope Christensen injury isn't bad and he's only gone off due to embarrassment and pride. Such poor defending for their goal.

Yes a draw will be a great result for us.

Push on Christensen while he was at full stretch ignored by VAR.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. He walked stumpled right into Gilmour and definitely moved away from the ball.

Surely we must have lawyers that can argue against having Taylor as a referee in our matches.

And the guy is from South Manchester, I thought that would be against the rules.

I once got banned form editing wikipedia after changing his profile after a match against UTD. I was only trying to highlight the fact that he is from Manchester. Dont know why I got banned.

It was probably nothing to do with the fact that I called him a biased c**t
