Manchester City vs. Newcastle United: 19/08/23 @ 20:00 (TNT Sports)

You’re right it was 2-0 to us (October 2014). Could have sworn it was 2-1 and also was sure Kevin Mbabu was playing up against Sterling that game. But looking at date, I’ve obviously conflated different games, as Mbabu dominating Sterling must have been later. -

League Cup was it not 2-1? Maybe it wasn’t I’ll check. -

After originally fancying us to beat Villa 4-2 or 4-3, and toning down to a 2-2, I’m going with my gut instinct. 2-1 to us. Which was the score the only time I’ve seen us win at The Ethihad. -
What a lovely experience and gesture from you @Cronky. Top man ?
-
Kilcline? Less obvious but crucial.

Don’t get the suited to cup games not league games thing. Both are just a sequence of one-off matches, so a style of play suitable for winning football matches is suitable for winning any one-off match?

Think you’ll see he is far from ‘soft’. Human and unassuming, yes. But he ‘doesn’t suffer fools gladly’ and has a steely determination to succeed, I think driven by (to his mind) experience of failure, which means he will make hard decisions as well as anyone.
-
Surely a great candidate for the Coloccini song.
-
I wouldn’t confuse nice with soft. The best leaders treat everyone with equal kindness and concern. High standards and high support. The best leaders get the best out of their teams. The gap between the ‘quality on paper’ of our squad and the quality of the squads in clubs like yours is shrinking. We’ve already overtaken most in terms of team spirit; despite being somewhat second tier in terms of salaries. It would be foolish to think that team spirit/togetherness doesn’t really matter.

Almiron is a top class player. Gordon has a higher ceiling than him, I think. Hoping it’s with us and peppered with silverware.
-
Yep, Gordon and Isak have the (most hotly contested) shirts.

One goal, produced a great shot and save from Martinez, critical pass in three other goals. Covered hectares of ground, aggressive and aware. What a debut.

Exploding bow, don’t you know!

Alright for a one off, but sounds like it would be difficult to reproduce. -
Cost about one Mangala and two Gerry Creaneys ?

Their ears might really prick up next week.

Try not to worry, apparently he was likely bladdered before kick-off ?♂️

Having that photo up somewhere. Don’t know where but it’s going on display!

Eddie looks emotional. He really wanted this.
-
Get in! Fucking great ball Tonali.

I’d like to see Longstaff come now.
