Arsenal seem so lightweight, all over the park. They have a decent attacking line-up on paper, but there is not one player from that starting 11 that I would have in our first 11 barring maybe Ozil.

I wouldn't want Ozil anywhere near Utd.

They said the weather was the main reason. I think the point they are making though is that no matter the weather (unless it had a direct consequence on travel with shut downs) fans would still make their way - especially to a home game - if the team is playing well and challenging. 15 years ago I imagine the stadium would still be a lot more full than it is now

Where are the fans coming from? They're not local anymore, few teams fans are. The reason it's half empty will 100% be weather, not a poor cup final reaction. It's hard enough walking over the street to get some milk without falling over right now.

Why are people choosing a PL game night where we aren't even involved (we just had a great win at the weekend too), to turn a City win into shitting on us. Give it a rest ffs.

You have to ask? Slamming United is the only way for some.

More City fans than United fans on here tonight by the looks of things.
 
Koscielny is absolutely terrible. 5 years later, I wouldn't change any of our defenders again for him. Atrocious defender.

Are Arsenal playing that badly though? City have been annoyingly amazing.

Absolutely; all it takes is one pass and City are running straight at the their defenders. They basically have no midfield, Xhaka and Ramsey are useless.

This is a repeat of the first half when United came, press them into mistakes and you'll score 2-3 goals. Then sit off them and counter attack as they leave no players back.

City will dominate us for as long as Pep is there.

The PL hasn't been defended for a long time. It's completely different when you're champions. They won't have it easy next season I'm sure.
 
City look like the United of 06-09. Their counter attacking is reminiscent of the days of Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez, Nani, Park, etc when they visited the Emirates.

I'm going to assume that you are young and have no fight in you.
Never, ever, ever give up. In sport. In life. You fight till your last breath and believe that you can succeed.
The moment you give up, you have zero chance of winning or succeeding in whatever it is that you want to achieve.

We have a a serial winner managing us and he is determined to win more trophies. He will get more players this Summer, which should go some way to becoming a "Jose team". When that happened at Chelsea, Madrid, Inter, Porto - they won pretty much everything.
 
Arsenal is getting another beating under Wenger. It's truly incredible how he's still in his job. Just incredible.
 
Commentator just pointed out that three behind Aubameyang are United rejects. I know Mkhi and welbeck but is ozil really a united reject considering he wanted to come here and we just got sanchez.

Brave of Wenger to go with no midfield. No sure City is the team to introduce it against.

:lol:

Perhaps he thought that if he makes it easy for them, somehow, they might get confused and stop playing their normal game.

Really isn't that bad down south today. Fecking freezing though i guess
 
Gary Neville applauding Ederson for catching the ball that was straight at him :lol:

He was an excellent CB, best in the Prem at one point, but it seems like his body has gone a bit. Might be better off in a different league.
 
AFTV isn't even jokes anymore. I used to have a laugh, but now I just feel bad. They give a feck, and no one in the club they support does sans Wilshere.

Perfect example of how refs playing 'advantage' on City's niggling fouls gives City an advantage. Back-pass to last CB = advantage = allows City to pressure him into a mistake.

I hate conspiracies like this that the refs help certain teams.

Remember when Sir Alex was still the manager? Every opposition fan was saying he had the FA and the refs in his pocket. It was pure bitterness and I see so many accusations towards City like this one. Doping, refs, unfair money. I hate the lot and everything they stand for, but they are just better, there is no ulterior reason or conspiracy that goes in their favour.
 
Don't know what's worse, Neville's annoying voice or Tyler's terrible puns.
 
Gary's such an inspiring sort. It's a wonder Valencia didn't work out..
 
Aguero on this form is back to the best player in the league, albeit we know it won't last.
 
"I don't know what to say."

That's why you're talking shite in a TV studio or commentary box every weekend and not managing, Gary.

It's a new genre, embarrassment comedy.
