He seemed to show up on the day of the city game brandishing his own shite version of wummery and we haven't been able to flush him since. 

 

Deffo a city fan, noticed how he's disappeared since Newcastle scored?

He hasn't gone over to Bluemoon. 

 

It's crashed! 

 

Cunts.

The PL had better teams back then. 

 

Henry, Toure, Campbell, Cole, Vieira, Henry, Bergkamp, Pires would walk into this City side.

 

 

Henry was so good he'd get into this City team twice.

Love the original of that gif as well. Only just found out that its Robert Redford and not the actor who plays Alan in The Hangover 

I learned something new today, I always thought it was Alan.

Yep. This will probably be our greatest ever league campaign in terms of points won, but still only be good enough for a fairly distant second. Coming within 10 points of a team with their resources would be a remarkable achievement.

You don’t seem to get this game “ game lasts 90minutes plus injury time shit do you “

[El Rojo]

That City side struggle to deal with any kind of adversity in a game at all.

 

They’re fine when they’re on top and all guns blazing, but score one and you’ve a great chance of knocking in a second.

I feel all David Frost commentating on the Ali Foreman fight about Rafa:

 

'HE'S DONE IT!! THE GREAT MAN HAS DONE IT'

[Hades]

How we all laugh these days watching other teams buffoon around.

 

 

[Ronnie Whelan]

13 wins from the title and that would be city winning all their games. Not saying they aren't capable of that but what a position to be in.

 

We need to just win tomorrow. 3 points and we are two off the fuckers on goal difference with a 7 point lead. 

 

If they drop any points from their next 3 games and we win our next 3, i really would fancy us. Tonight gives us a little more breathing space going to the toilet. Still terrified of that game.

[Anubis]

Saw this. Even the picture was prescient...

 

 

 

 

[aRdja]

Quite gracious from Pep. 

[lifetime fan]

[aRdja]

Why does JJ look so disappointed?!

[Aventus]

Tomorrow is fucking huge, biggest match since the City game. 

 

Beat Leicester and I think City will take their foot off the gas in the league and start resting players for Europe. They've got a brutal schedule ahead and they'll need us to fuck up three times before the end of the season, providing they win every single one, which I don't think they will. 

 

Over on Bluemoon:

The disappointing thing is we're just handing the title to Liverpool. Not even making them work hard for it. We took 4 points off them this season. It should have been 6 if Mahrez could take a penalty. We should be there or there abouts at the top fighting it out, making them sweat for every point. But no we just switch off in the "easy" games and think we can win just by turning up and surprise surprise we drop points allowing them to stroll to the title. Fucking shit mentality.

[Edward.]

Not really into betting but my mate had this bet on tonight.

 

No idea what it means but the score and the names look right.

Yeah very classy in fairness to him. He's like the nice rich kid with all the toys. You hate him for having it all, but he's not the worst.

Decent. 

 

Is Ritchie not their usual penalty taker? 40/1 seems quite long for a player on pens.

Yeah agree with that. They looked a bit leggy tonight. I think they will drop more points as the games pile up. They struggle when they have to battle it out. Massive tomorrow.

[magicrat]

4 defeats now for City. They won't win the rest of their games and i think 90 pts will win the title.

[Red Shift]

RAFA YOU FUCKING BEAUTIFUL MAN!

I'd love you to be right...

 

But we have 45 to play for, i find it hard to believe we could drop 15 of those and win it.

 

I am sticking with 95.

 

I hope you are right and we do it with less.

[suzy]

What a time to be a Liverpool fan!

[Baltar]

Great stuff from Newcastle and Rafa. Let's hope we make this count by winning tomorrow.

Just seen a clip of Lingard hitting the deck after the slightest pull by the Burnley player. You can guarantee the narrative around it will be that he's entitled to hit the deck if there's contact, if not completely skirting the issue. Compare that with the treatment Salah got, where managers of other clubs that have nothing to do with it decided to have their say anyway.

English players are exempt from this type of criticism. African boys like Salah and Zaha are easy targets for the media.
