Some powerful comments that would be appreciated on the latest American Cityzens podcast about cloaked racism when comments are made about our owners, and the general treatment of us by the FA.

They don't exactly have the greatest radio voices, to it mildy, with probably annoying American vocals (including to me) particularly Josh whose nasal voice seems to come straight out of Revenge of The Nerds, but they generally provide good analysis since I started checking them out after Josh appeared on one of CityWatch podcasts.

Be all the more smug when we batter them on saturday then.

You're not wrong there mate. He also likes to talk a lot, and it's funny listening to the others tolerate and humour him.

Sky sports news this morning is something else. So many bitter comments, but the one that stood out was a comparison of Pogba v Silva so far this season. Literally mumbled the stats where Dave was on top, yet shouted with glee the 2 where Pogba was, shots per game and % successful dribbles, fuck knows how that is measured?!?

It's my first venture to Sky this week. Based on the tone, and the fact that the next clip was Evra bigging them up, I don't think I'll not bother again until kickoff.

It's where he receives the ball and runs a yard, or two, without falling over. It's then quantified by a coefficient based on the number of times he spills coffee down the front of his shirt.

It's all scientifically calculated to the last degree.

Having got Aguero banned and Clattenberg appointed to do his duty - how sweet it will be to watch them choking on their bile trying to explain why the rags didn't turn up and unaccountably got battered by our boys in blue.

Perhaps the traffic was bad and their bus was delayed, making them late to the ground.

Mind you, that could never happen, could it ??

How many MotM awards has Aguero won this season?

Honestly, I think they hype machine is more out of whack than ever.

They have managed to win all of their games, yes, but I am not seeing such great things. Yes, Mourinho has his approach, and winning is technically all that matters, but squeaking by a very poor Hull side, and relying on Ibra headers for the most part whilst their lack of pace, and dominance for any significant periods in any of their games compared to ours in several strikes me as reeking of bias.

We are not a perfect, finsihed product either, and I get that they are at home, but to assume we will lose this game scoring no goals as some have predicted after the way we have performed in attack seems like wishful thinking as well.

I always go into media blackout until after the match - I'm avoiding everything (apart from this site).

Reckon the sky hacks have been monitoring this site as they now have an article titled "the Curious Case of Samir Nasri" Obviously been reading our Denayer thread and don't have the ingenuity to make up their own title.

A million miles is a long way, do you think he's measured it?

Have watched about 20 ninutes of SS this norning and everything is about the Rags. They set the agenda early, ensured Sergio was banned, appointed their go to man and are now confident that nothing but a Rag win is in-hand.

Less than confident at the moment.
