well it's a derby so anything less would be seen as unacceptable.

the main problem is of course 3/4 of our division that are beaten before they get on the pitch against them.

"we'll just sit back and wait to lose shall we?"

Still they won't have two games against Watford to score 20-odd goals in next season, should knock down their GD a bit by itself tbh.

I'm sure Fulham will be equally obliging.

Wish Leeds would be tbh

Still, its a blow that Ronaldo can't do his worst against them now.

Just like the vermin in the 80s and about to be repeated

Managers would spend all week saying how all you get at Anfield is a cup of tea... then on the Monday crowing a 2-0 defeat was a good result

@#%&!s.

Cannot help but feel the same, but of course the English media had to spin it as that United lost out on some short of great of Defensive prodigy ala Steve Bruce.
Because they know that man city cannot sell any clicks and papers like the mighty Manchester United does. That shows how irrelevant these cheats are.

I think media are slowly opening their eyes that continue presance of mansour is not good for the health of the game as all of that "success" is unerned, as that club hasn't won a legimate trophy since 1976 and counting. Unless you like to count man city pre and post mansour as two completely diffrent clubs. Where in 2008 Manchester City was replaced by Mansour City.

When it comes to the general public I cannot help but feel that more pepoles are turned off by them after that odd CAS ruling than before as public will almost always reconize when there is miss carrage of justice specially now if its coming to surface that mansour was allowed to hand pick two of the three judges on the CAS panel, as mentioned here and elsewhere,

With that said so I don't think Der Speigel are going to let this rest until there is some short of actual justice regarding these cheats:

Der Speigel may have been holding these back. If anything they sound more explicitly incriminating. Basically Etihad paid virtually none of the sponsorship money, and they’re all discussing it.

https://www.theguardian.com/football...on-cas-verdict
I cannot help but feel looking at these new emails released by Der Spegiel that they might have even more emails on them than just this. IF the cheats fluke CL this year then expect Der Spegiel to turn up with even more emails on them.

City have beaten them 5-0 twice in the last couple of years haven’t they?

They’re habitually shit at Anfield though.

Laughing at City not quite as rewarding today as it was yesterday.

next season they'll be challenging and we'll be giving game time to Dan James

What they spend and have spent, they should have won the European cup a few times. They finished this season with the league cup and lost home & away to us.

If it was a diff manager, he'd have been sacked this summer.

Doesn’t make us any better though

Be much funnier if we were remotely close to winning things
