City matches always remind me of the IT Crowd episode where Moss makes football sound like the most boring thing ever
I swear football peaked in the mid 90s.

Every team playing 2 proper wingers, on their correct side, crossing in for 2 strikers.

This tippy tappy Pep stuff is really tedious stuff, however "Brilliant" people tell us it is.

If we were playing this football and winning 3 league titles in 5 years it would have been brilliant for me.

People actually think City play an entertaining brand of football?

Granted, oppositions sometimes get blitzed by them.
However I feel this is what I normally get when watching them. Tons of possession with limited penetration.

City have been really good but so weird how Villa sat back after they were panicking City those first 10 minutes with simple direct balls. Lost them the game

Teams like Villa, Southampton etc that have strong starts to the season, look completely fecked by this stage.
Villa seem to operate with about 15 players over the season, so no surprise reallt.

Grealish being out utterly killed them as being the best watch in the league for me.

That goal from Villa feels like a complete waste of time because it just fired up City more, would have been better if it had been close for a bit then maybe we would have had a better game from both teams

Villa were the perfect opponents for them tonight. They looked visibly tired in the sexond half saving their legs and Villa just lay off them.

That's that for the little glimmer that was there.

Seal second before we play Leicester, roll over for Leicester and cost Chelsea or Liverpool Champion's League for a season. That'll do me.

Yeah.

Excitement can be found in other means than lung bursting counter attacks.
