When you see the players Citeh can bring on from the bench, it reminds me a bit of Sky's GT dominance in cycling. And what a boring load of shite that has been.

We still got hammered and even when we were down we still kept passing sideways and backwards. We would need more than 11 players against this City team, we would struggle even if we had 15 v 11.
But my point was Bournemouth are no City and like you said couple of the goals against them were on the counter, so we got battered going forward against Bournemouth which is why Im saying, yeah its great to attack but we still need to find the balance and keep the shape Chris drummed into us.

I wasn't even replying to you and you were offended on someone else behalf? and the comment I was replying to said "couldn't give a shit about the pundits TBH".
As I said; this is getting a bit daft now. I will be accused of being patronising and sarcastic next.

I am not in the least offended. I just disagree with your point. Why don't you stick to the point which was that studio 'experts' know far more about the game than anyone else as they were good at kicking a ball around? Leave out all the imaginings about what people are thinking as you are wide of the mark. It is only that comment that I disagree with, I pointed it out, I believe it is unjustifiable and yet you keep coming back with comments, none of which address the one I mentioned. I say silly things, see the clapping Kompany thread, but I am old enough and big enough to admit when I have been out of line. Why not try it?

Disagreeing with a point is different from accusing me of being condescending.
My response to a poster was regarding whether playing for a 0-0 draw for 120 mins and then winning on penalties was a good tactic or not;
His response was " "couldn't give a shit about the pundits TBH".
And I responded to him accordingly.
Not sure what it is that I am having to admit to, and even if I was condescending, it wasn't to you, and it's was just general chat on a forum that should be taken with a pinch of salt and not overthought.
If you want to say that I am talking rubbish on a particular point that is fair enough.

My thanks to Troy for delivering on an electrifying final atmosphere, and a lesson in how to take the big teams on.
The way it works here, I believe the VAR reviews it automatically and alerts the ref if the decision needs to be overturned.
Disagree. His arm was raised. And referees already take into account whether the arm is in an unnatural position and how close the player is when the ball is struck. It's the business about the silhouette that comes in next season in European games.

So... I went to the Cup Final in support of my Watford-loving son. As you may have heard, it did not go well.
What amused me, however, was the number of Albion stickers I saw around the place - no other team's, just Albion, including a big North Stand Kollective sticker still prominently attached to the bar top in the bar near the escalators on the top level. The dirty ******** can't do much cleaning, given it's been 6 weeks and there were 3 other matches played at Wembley between that semi and the final.
