That's a dream result, and I really didn't expect it. Why do my nerves get so much worse when we are in front?

The rave reviews for the first two games were way over the top anyway IMO. Of course he's a useful player but you'd have thought people were talking about Patrick Vieira.

Not a City player, but the best exponent of the art was Stuart Pearson in the mid to late 70s for Man Utd. He passed the ball with ease using his chest.

We squandered a lot of potential points in the weeks before that, being way too open when we didn't need to be.

Anyone else think it wasn't necessary to wait for the recruitment of Onyeka before tweaking the tactics? IMO Eccles would be capable of providing similar support for Grimes, and if Onyeka becomes unavailable that's exactly what I'd do. Quite strange to me that Lampard only ever seems to want to...

Another pointless stat for those of us with eyes and a lifetime of experience.

We haven't had that spirit here since 1969

I imagine your careers adviser thought calligraphy was your true calling.

Apropos of nothing, I think Hayden Hackney facially resembles Chris Waddle 🤷‍

Re-watched the game on ITVX. One key takeaway is that Bobby Thomas can (hands-free) evacuate both nostrils in a fine atomiser mist, a bit like Eau de Parfum.

He'd look quite strange if he did.

Don't think anyone's mentioned Gynn's equaliser in the 1987 semi? Not a stylish goal, but the explosion of sound in that end must have registered on seismographs all over the planet.

Allardyce was disgraceful at times.

It's a view that's sometimes been ridiculed on here, and I know it conflicts with what Frank thinks too, but I've always thought Wright looks much better playing wide left. In the absence of EMC that's where I'd play him, leaving room for Simms to play down the middle. We need both to deliver...

He's a much more cultured player though, and would surely have improved our control of games.

Struggling to work out which bit of your body that is. Does it expand and contract according to the match score?

Surely depends on what browser you're using though? In chrome (on my android phone) I have to press the 3 dots at top right in order to reveal that refresh button. Or, as has already been said, swipe down from the top of the screen.

Mum's the word.

He looked like an outstanding buy at the price when he was available, and I was disappointed we didn't seem to pursue it. Strength and (at least at this level) technically better than most centre forwards.
