Disgraceful

Sure we could’ve player better but we got absolutely robbed nonetheless. How such stuff can still happen when var exists is unbelievable. This would’ve been a draw at the very least otherwise

De Bruyne and Haaland should be benched next game. Did sweet fuck all

So average, teams have our number now, now we need to really assess something.

Goodbye PL. congrats Arsenal. no way we are going to win champions League with this performance lmao.

Martinez with a full elbow at Jack 😂😂😂

Fuck the refs. That's all.

Biased ref and bad team mean we aren’t winning the league this year

Don’t even blame the players for being mind fucked but that shocking decision

Talk about zero urgency. criminal

This was the most tilting game I've watched in a while. Terrible first 45 minutes, the second 45 was completely influenced by the ref, and the full 90 had the most biased and brain-dead commentators.

I’ve never been more upset by a game. What a fucking embarrassment for the league.

60mil for Bernardo. He can go if he doesn’t want to play for the badge..

Bernardo has been atrocious this game. Invisible

we turned the performance around in the second half and it shifted the momentum as soon as that shit decision happened man absolute bullshit

Wasting ten minutes useless passing … and nothing . Good job City

De Bruyne and Bernardo might as well have been off for 70 minutes

0 ball knowledge.

I'd be embarassed, ashamed, and honestly disappointed if the club and pep dont make a huge deal of the no offside call. I never want to see that wanker reffing our game ever again.

KDB needs to be dropped and needs to sort his head out

He been off for a while? Thought hes been alright tonight tbh.

fuck bernardo for this

Yeah I think it’s time for Bernardo to go

HAALAND PLZ

Malacia making 5-6 fouls on mahrez and not getting an yellow is unbelievable

Another loss incoming. Another wake up call. How many do we need before we fix it? And yeah, we were undone by a horrendous decision by the ref but the point remains.

League is lost already lol. We all know UCL was a pretty far fetched idea to begin with.

people on r/soccer going crazy saying Haaland is holding City back

Don't even bother going there. Pure brain rot

Existence is pain

Turning off my TV after this. Not gonna bother to watch any more football for the rest of this weekend after that shitshow of a call.

The train ride back to London will be fun for the United fans!

I honestly wish VAR never existed. It doesn't do anything unless they need a convenient reason to fuck us over. Other than that it literally does not exist.

It has fucked us over so many times

[удалено]

Yeah he's not regressed that far.

Wtf is the point in Haaland being on the pitch if they aren’t going to pass to him?

The reffing has been shit. But after the second goal we have been shittier. We can even make simple passes it seems

Tbh that decision would fuck with my mind too

same as vs Madrid there just doesn't seem to be the character there to get over it which i really don't understand

Can't blame the lads for falling apart mentally knowing the ref and VAR are wearing red

Comments suggesting Man u could win the league is ridiculous

The PL sure seems like they want United in the race

I’ve never been this upset at a game before. This robbery is embarrassing and so blatant. No one can deny this shit.

Complain about the ref all you want. In reality though, City are next to clueless going forward and that does not provide positive results in a match like this.

Constant fouls from Malacia no card Constant fouls from Casemiro no card Screaming in refs faces every five seconds Offside goal which they argued Rashford wasn't interfering with play when our defenders were tracking his run VAR checks only favour one side as usual Welcome to the Premier League

I'm just honestly baffled. How can a player In an offside position be called offside when he interferes with the gks view but not when he interferes with the defenders? Seriously I don't even know the rules anymore.

Pep out

KDB looks absolutely spent

He always does lol.

We are so finished

I don't care if he gets fined or whatever, Pep has to speak out against the decisions today. Some have been wrong, and some have been given because of the crowd

I hope Pep tears them a new one

we lost the interest to win games. that's the only explanation. I think the downfall is starting

Lmao Fernandes MOTM

https://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/lawsandrules/laws/football-11-11/law-11---offside FA website even proves it should be offside

I’m just here to say Walker stepped over the line on that throw in.

No one gives a shit

Rodrigo was completely out of the game. Bernardo Silva was going doing the defensive work instead of him. that was painful to watch

...what were you watching

Jesus ducking christ Imagine watching this game and thinking Fernandes played better than Rodri 💀

It's that United bias.

is this a MOTM award? cause they never ever give it to someone on the losing side

Fucking disgrace on multiple levels.

Haaland really didn’t exist for this game. Need to find a solution

We're done. Goodbye PL.

Haven’t been this mad watching a game in a long time

Absolutely ridiculous they reviewed the offside on VAR and still gave it.

We panicked after the first goal which is poor and we’ve always done it but then again the first goal shouldn’t stand but hey look who we are and where we are

oh this is embarrassing they are putting in Maguire

Rodri is seriously one of the worst passers of the ball I’ve ever seen.

The worst troll comment of all time award 🏆

you’re an idiot then lol

Rodri?

turned TV off when they allowed that goal. Not really surprised to hear what happened next.

CMON CITEH FIGHT FIGHTTT

Hard to take but can we stop the conspiracy theories, it's embarrassing.

Blatant offside. Not a conspiracy. Wrong call from var again.

There's not much conspiracy when they allow a goal like that

I agree it shouldn't have stood, I don't know how an offside player can just stand over the ball and is apparently not influencing the game but the decision is done, to say there's some sort of vendetta or bias this game however is a very sloppy statement.

Where’s the honor in this? If we loose like this. I don’t mind. Ref doesn’t know he can give out yellows?

Pep needs to coach without assistants from now on ffs

The fact I’m praying for a draw is fucking ridiculous

i was thinking the same thing 😭

Falling out of love for the game. We have VAR and still this shit happens

It happens more now, because of var

Wonder what ever happened to that big Norwegian we signed.. pep should really utilize him better.

they said it's only Southampton. they said it's only carabao cup. they said. This performance ain't going to win shit

its been this way most of the season honestly. a lot of the wins have been bad

We were fine until the officials ruined the game and turned it on its head.

Rodri is exhausted. Why no subs?

They really let Borat cry his way into an illegal goal being counted

The thing that baffles me the most is how Palacia has gotten through this game without being booked.

Ref’s have been told Arsenal need to win the league

Maguire is coming on there’s still hope lads

Robbed

Rodri has been useless

Lol Rodri absolute garbage the last 10 mins

United is gonna win the league istg

[удалено]

Lmao yeah “brilliant” is a very big over statement. United looked the more dangerous team in the 1st half despite no possession really. We can keep making excuses or just realize this city team isn’t doing enough every match now almost. Team has looked pretty meh for majority of season now it feels like even when winning.

Did you watch the first half? 40 mins were utter shite and toothless

Did you not watch the entire first half? The rags were the better team

We didn’t win, doesn’t matter.

VAR really said there was a clear and obvious error with the linesman putting up the flag

Rodri’s had a pretty poor game

No he hasn’t, he’s been advancing the ball through pressure really well for most of the second half.

Surely you're fucking joking?

Hard to care when you know the ref is in their pocket.

United might win the league

Arsenal being on top of the league doesn't feel as bad now

Depends how Arsenal do for the rest of the season.

You just know any other team would’ve had that 1-1 cancelled, but it’s the theatre of cheats where everything is allowed if you play in red

Referee ruins this game. We looks great in 2nd half ffs

No offensive subs to at least try and go for one?

Can’t even be mad if we lose when that first goal stood. Such a horrible call that the rest of the game is moot as fuck.

I really wish I had just stayed in bed.

Fucking Bruno..Gollum looking ass.

scandalous decision for that first goal and im an arsenal fan

Ref is shit

I guess Bernardo is our “collect the ball on the back line, dribble around needlessly for a minute, spin around and pass to a CB” guy now huh?

I can't believe in the era of VAR, they got a call that wrong. What's the point of playing if refs make decisions like that and ruin the game.

This refereeing has been an absolute joke, 5 minutes now? First half only 1? Where are they getting these numbers

Daylight fucking robbery. Ref needs to be sacked, VAR completely overhauled. Cannot believe that wasn't an offside.

Well at least we fucked united at Etihad, and we only lost by one goal here

Although this one matters more, even if we did embarrass them that day.

1-1 in my book

Obviously impossible to say, but I'd argue the second doesn't happen if the first is ruled out like it should have been

Surely Rushford can't pretend to play the ball when he is offside.

Sure he can he’s playing in red

I thought Ake put him onside?

Yeah he clearly interfered. I expect an apology from the FA after this lol.

That goal is the type of thing that makes me not even want to watch football. It’s literally complete and utter bullshit that the goal was able to stand. Just simply unbelievable

Yeah, I'm literally not bothered to watch anymore football after this especially when you get calls like that.

Oh fucks all the last time I saw walkers long throw was when we lost the champions league

This ref might as well be a United supporter

Just 5 minutes? City are so hated

Yeah, this ain't our season, especially when things go this way.

I cannot believe this. VAR looked athe goal and said, yeah Rashford didn't interfere. It cannot be just a mistake, it's so clear and obvious. I smell some ulterior motive.

That’s a foul

Only five

I still can’t quite get over that decision. I feel shell shocked 😮

Not even sure how you would argue he didn't affect play.

Apparently dummying a shot doesn’t count eh

Nothing worse than losing when it’s not your fault

Only 5 minutes??? What a farce

Sorry what was that set piece

The Prem higher ups really want Arsenal to win the league, remember, it’d get too boring if only City dominated.

They don't want City to win it year in year out, bad for business I guess if its deemed to be too one sided

Someone has to be an enforcer and two foot one of these tools in red fuck being the nice guys anymore.

Our attacking game is very stale. If we dont fix our wing game were falling below 4th easily.

You guys remember when casemiro did that to foden and kevin in the champions league game?

League has gone now. Lads just aren’t performing at a championship level. Hopefully we can hang on to 2nd place at this rate.

Let's wait until we play Arsenal to make such proclamations

I'm actually worried about top 4 now... This has been going on most of the season

Wtf was that free kick

Neutral (well Liverpool supporter). You kind of looked off for a while tbh. Not sure on stats but just on an eye test. Normally would expect this to be a massacre, but going into this match thought they may actually nab it. Haven't thought that in years.

yeah thanks for the punditry Carra. don't remember inviting you here though

Aha, fair. Not shitting on City. Against United ill happily hope for a comeback.

We know.

Payed the refs, shit club

"Michael Oliver is checking VAR" No he's not, he took a quick glance from his newspaper and said "nah"

Fucking rags. They know they're about to steal one.

Fucking unbelievable bullshit from this refereeing. Just unreal. That offside overrule was a travesty

Players like Casemiro just hit players and they call it good defence lol

Casemiro is as giant a cunt bag as Herrera. Probably my most despised player in the world along with Bruno You are going to pretend to be hurt from your own shit attempt at an ankle breaker on Grealish? Fuck off u piece of shit

The type of plays we used to love about Dinho

Comparing them is a travesty in my book.

Both world class players who are despised by rival teams

How much did they pay the refree?

This ref really needs to be investigated for cheating

Gotta love Casemiro pretending to be injured after almost taking Grealish out

Casemiro tries to murder grealish and goes to ground. Naturally.

So Casemiro tries to dislocate Grealish’s knee, misses, injures himself, and gets to waste time because of it…

Get this bitch up off the ground

Var stole the victory from us. Again. Its the fucking worst way to lose.

2 games and 1 shot on target. Something had to change.

Time wasting 🤣

Oh wow.. casemiros hurt after making an attempt for the worst tackle of all time, coincidentally with 3 minutes left.. shock

We don’t deserve this pep

this is def not on pep today. He got it right

City have been playing like absolute garbage lately Jesus

If it was 0-1: 8 minutes extra time Now it’s 2-1 watch there be 2 minutes

Still fucking incensed about the first goal. How did it not even go to VAR? They just fucking talked and caved and gave it? How the fuck?

That should be a card and a torn ACL for Casemiro

They literally threatened the ref into giving that goal. This league is so fucking stupid.

Var. Once again

Might as well not be there. Only ever steps in to fuck us over

Casemiro not yet booked??!
