PG is a tit.

Other culprits were no worse than they usually are - Sterling dithering Jesus missing etc etc. and we normally get away with it.

Kev's performance sank us unfortunately.

Yes this for me too.

KDB and Sterling both sank us but our pathetic start delivered a mortal blow .
Woeful day .

Yep. The 2 biggest names were shocking. Jesus was indescribably bad.

Jesus is shit most of the time but because he runs like a demented rabbit he gets a bye from some City fans and then when he does score (Usually after 80 odd minutes of playing shit and missing numerous other chances ) that gets him in the first team for the next game.

Foden watches all this and even though he doesn't say anything negative in the press , you know deep down hes disappointed not to play...he has to be watching some of the shit Baldie picks ahead of him.

Some fans are Sick Harry.........others just shrug their shoulders and carry on to the Southampton game.

Good advice Carl

For the record..I'm sick and tired of Baldie bending over for the rags and whats worse is..he doesn't care too much about it...

My phone hasn't stopped all day.

Bit of a shaker that. Goodnight blues, the pain will pass I'm sure.

For me winning a derby was always poor consultation while watching the Rags win the PL titles in the 90s and 00s.

Today was very disappointing with a worrying trend of big match selections that do not work and Brown's inclusion causing issues.

But it was only disappointing. Win the PL and today will be of little consequence.

The bigger concern is the CL. Keep making team selections like today and throw in Brown's mandatory selection and we will be out.

Winning the champions league is going to be very difficult mainly because of two reasons.

1 Peps ability to fuck up in big games. And his inability to learn from it.

2 No top goal scorer, the type you need in tough tight games, the sort of player who gets one chance and buries it. We dont have that. Teams like PSG and Bayern do. More often than not it IS the difference at that level.

If we can win it with those two factors in play, it would be a miracle.

100 % that will happen. We have a every precedent since he came here. Monaco, Criminals, Spuds, Lyon.
All of them had tactical brainfarts.

There are really slim chances everything will actually turn out good when you, as a manager, don't see the problem & you think everything went great yesterday.
I am convinced he is putting the defeat on Taylor, not on the tactics. And yes, Taylor is part of what happened yesterday, but it is your fault you had time to avoid the car crash, but you didn't.

Do we have any other choice. Painful day, move on FFS I have no rags giving me shit today yet. Not sure they will tbh.

That is also part of the issue though Hazy, we move on until the next time when we fall off again at the same spot -Pep will not learn from this and he will do it again in an important game. He will 100% play foden and bernie on weds

You said the same the previous 3 losses to the rags Hazy - Sorry , I can’t move on as I’m sick and tired of our “genius” fucking up against them - most of us predicted he would fuck up again with his team selection and what happens —yep , he fucks up -
He will never ever win the CL with Man City - ever .

Winning the Prem is all PeP cares about whereas fans like me care about so much more than just winning the Prem - pride is everything adn getting beaten by the Rags time after bastard time is a fucking disgrace .

It’s been said many times , Baldie couldn’t give a flying fuck that we lost to them - his post game interview was disgraceful .

And some wonder why I think he’s a cunt !

Anyone feeling better? Anyone moved on?

Carl mate I am on your side on this, but it will say champions 2020/2021. I hate the fuckers and Pep needs to sit down with Kiddo, Phil F and get it into his head, we treat the game as a must win. The sooner the better, Even a nod top the fans - Sorry FFS - The reality is we have to go again and thats what Pros do.

Not feeling better but time to look forward and make sure we’re ready for three points on Wednesday. That game is an absolute must win now.

take the medicine recover and get back on it on Wed. We do not want a bad run to be the new run !

Bernard and Forden were needed for an energetic performance.
Walker and Cancelo should have been full backs.
KDB shouldn't have started at the expense of a winning formula.
Rodri and Gundogan I still a poor combination.
Mahrez having one or two reasonable performances doest make him reliable for big games.

Agree with this and I might add that Ferna should have started as he is made for such games. In addition to getting the starting lineup wrong, Pep fucked it up with the subs. What was the point of subbing Walker for Cancelo at 2 nil ?? Should have taken of Jesus or Sterling and moved Cancelo forward. Foden should have started of course and then with one sub still available he doesn’t bring on either Kun or Bernie when we’re chasing the game !! Nobody can deny the long streak of winning games but with games like this one with obvious mistakes, it’s obvious that Pep doesn’t admit mistakes and that’s why he doesn’t correct them. God help us if we get to a difficult CL match !!

Those history channel plastic swamp donkey wankers can fuck off .
Of a bigger concern is the form of KDB he looks ropey as fuck and miles off it . Has he become a liability just when the team hit peak form ?
Huge issue !

on reflection, i am just grateful to be able to see us play.

Pep gives the Rags another 3 points.

Might as well forfeit these games, saves us having to also listen to him sucking their dicks after every Derby.

I actually feel like he deliberately stiches up in these games..

KDB has been blowing out of his arse within minutes of every game he has played since being Shoe horned back in the side. Not only is he woefully unfit, he is looking like absolute shit, playing like shit. And spending most the games walking around losing the Ball, and waving his arms in the air, mumbling at team mares like a petulant teenager.

We were lucky against West Ham, and Wolves, but Pep just had to push his luck didn't he..

And what for ffs ?,.....to get him fit for the fucking Euros. He is no benefit to us right now, he dosent even deserve to be on the Bench.

How the fuck has he un-surped a winning formula in Phil and Bernado ?

It is like the Bald fucker get bored with winning and has to feed his ego.

Within the first 5 minutes yesterday of KDB trotting around like a lame Race horse it was evident we needed Phil.and Bernado energy.

He can not change it, because that means he made a mistake, and his ego never makes mistakes..

This is why we never come back from losing positions.

This is when his ego becomes detrimental to the team. He only reacts when we are 2 goals down and not enough time left.

I am not a spoilt twat,we will lose games,thats the narure of football.

All our high profile defeats though have been 100% on him.

Name another manager who would have still had Bernado on the Bench at the end of that game yesterday.

Phil did more in 20 minutes than than the rest did the whole game.

I feel like he is deliberately trying to fuck Foden off,who knows maybe he wants him to go to Bayern with Leroy.

Did sky ever show a replay of the cut back from Jesus where he appeared to be wiped out in the box? Looked like a stonewall pen to me, did anyone else see it?

No. It was just Tyler saying "the check is complete".
