Say what you like I thought we played fkin well in both games.
Those who don’t see that I don’t think are actual football fans.
I don’t think I’ve seen anyone on here suggest otherwise Cletus. Seeing as you seem to be so desperate for our recognition, well done, you played really, really well. Unfortunately you lost, that’s 6 out of last seven isn’t it, and no one will remember your league cup tie. It’s finals people remember.
He’s back looking for approval already. We need one of these just for Jursset
First game you did well as Man City didn't turn up. Last night it could have been embarrassing but Man City took their foot right off the gas at 2-0 and allowed you into it. Even when were a minute away from an unlikely draw, they still had another few gears left to get the winner.
That's not actually me being anti-carrot cruncher. That's how it is with Man City. Even the very best teams struggle to even get close to them when they are at the top of their game. In the case of playing a Championship side giving their all, the only struggle for Man City would have been Man City themselves. Same when we play them on Sunday. If we get thrashed, no-one would be surprised. If it's close, or even by some miracle we don't lose, a part of that will be down to Man City not quite hitting the heights.
I dont think man city even needed to try and those two goals make the game look far closer than it was
one guy on your forum says Pep has man city playing the bristol city way. Surely that is a joke.......
You play bang average football from what ive seen and youve claimed in the past we play terribly, based on highlights I imagine.
a famous night doesn't beckon
To be honest I think this is the best result we could have outside of beating Man City (which over 2 legs was near on impossible).
We’ve gone to the Etihad and not parked the bus. We’ve gone there and had a go playing the expansive passing football that is Johnson’s ethos.
We’ve come away from that leg with huge plaudits.
Then in the 2nd leg we’ve again had a good go, played the football we are about against the best side in Europe and again only lost due to a last gasp goal.
No shame in either result.
Confidence is not dented, in fact it’s increased with the players wanting now to kick on and play there next season.
Every player interviewed last night talked about focus now of getting back on track in the league.
We have a good squad, high confidence, couple of good players come in and a few from injury returning.
The focus is now the league.
Time will prove this the time or not.
That’s a little childish as a response.
There are many potential results when you look at it ranging from winning to getting absolutely pummeled over 2 legs by a cricket score.
But losing to two injury time goals against the best team in the land, putting up a better display at their ground than most PL teams and having confidence of the team sky high from the two games - yes if you aren’t going to win that’s a very good result.
