Important game of course, but I hate the way the media blow it up out all proportion as though the destiny of the title rests on it. I should be used to it obviously, but whatever happens there's still such a long way to go.
We are "controlling it" aka not trying cos it means fewer risks. That short corner for example. Zero desire to get broken against. City are not in any way confident as is evidence by them not even trying to keep it really, just hacking it clear. Referee just wants to survive the game really. Doesn't want to make a decision. Rat boy on commentary as per is quite annoying and I really want him off the air. Sometimes we come out after ht and kick on again so let's hope cos this is fairly dull and risky given it only really take a moment of luck to change things
Gary Neville is really annoying me. He wanted a booking for gravenberch for a nothing challenge because "there was a potential counter attack on" (where is that in the rules ) to them claim there was "nothing in it" when Akanji got booked for studding the players ankle He's desperate for Man City to beat us. Every comment he's making screams of it.
brilliant start but once that blew over they got a foothold in the game but with little threat . We deserve and should be at least 2 up .Lets hope this seasons form for both team continues in that we get better and they fall apart .
