    He was like this even when we were finishing 8th. This behaviour is nothing new. Nor is he the only one guilty of it.

    I agree he does need to calm down a bit, but Pep and Klopp have acted similarly (or worse in some instances). So either issue retrospective bans for all of them or don’t do it all. You can’t pick and choose who to punish for the same behaviour.

    I haven't called for a ban. However, including Klopp and Gaurdiola wouldn't talk me out of it if I had.

    You clearly can! <laugh>

    Arteta's just doing his budget Pep impression. It's performative.

    and surely (depending on the individual) also
    punitive haircut / selection of pitch-side attire to wear.

    How can a player hear what a manager is yelling at him if 40,000-50,000 fans are yelling at the same time?

    I've always wondered how they can understand some of the ludicrously intricate hand signals from 20-30 yards away while also rushing back into position

    I thought that the BBC had gone mental when I looked up City's lineup on the website.
    Cancelo as an attacking midfielder and Walker playing in the middle of a back 3?
    Nope. That's exactly what Guardiola's picked. Trying to be too clever, again.

    De Bruyne doing his best Lo Celso impression so far.

    Awful half for him.

    And failing so far….
    Tedious game up to the little flurry in the last minutes of the first half

    The team is wonky as **** and Haaland's barely touched the ball, again.
    Who's supposed to be on the left? There's no structure to the side.

    Aubameyon, Aubamayoff. Who thought that was a sensible signing?

    He actually was successful.
    Soon after his first touchline rant, 2 Newcastle players got booked for nothing fouls.

    It made a bit of sense when Tuchel was manager as they worked well together at Dortmund.

    The part that wasn't at all sensible was allowing Tuchel to spend close to £300m then sacking him 2 weeks later.

    Vialli both as a player and a manager he was a likeable guy. He came from a wealthy family but he famously said when managing Chelsea: It's hard to motivate a team of millionaires.

    Thanks Gianluca, you didn't pass by unnoticed.
