I’m abroad so I can’t get on my skybet account. :mad:
Would be the easiest way to make money to bet on city winning this now

City have been terrible and they really don't look like they'll get back into it.

Is anyone else finding it hard to differentiate between the kits?
There was a spot 5 mins ago when palmer passed to a Southampton player in the box and it looked completely deliberate
Yeah. It's basically very pale yellow + dark shorts vs mostly white + dark shorts.

No idea why the feck City aren't just in their home kit.

It’s not immediately apparent who is on what team on the pitch - at least for me (perhaps I am old and developing colour blindness!)
Perhaps pep will use the traditional “Southampton” excuse of shit kits

2-4 this will finish to City, the cavalry will come on at half time and blow Saints away.

If I believe that enough hopefully it has the reverse effect.

Maybe this is what Fraudiola’s “ridiculous plan” was. Putting in a dogshit performance against Southampton to lull ETH into a false sense of security.

Oh this will be so great if they lose!

EDIT: nm, I see Haaland, KdB and Bilva on the bench. No way they're losing this. Hope he's forced to bring them on at HT and have them be a little bit tired for the United game
You can never count them out, but Southampton isn’t a pushover. Playing them over 2 legs wouldn’t be a dream draw either.

We owe Saints a trashing in the final, last time we made it a bit more exciting than it needed to be.

Worst half I've seen from us since Middlesboro beat us 8-1. Absolutely shocking.

Cancelo gone back to pre-pandemic levels of just not giving a shit and should be fined 2 weeks wages, Walker poor, Laporte piss poor. Said it when we signed him but despite the hype Sergio Gomez is not a top level player and never will be cause he simply can't defend. Philips is clearly not up to speed and the worst player on the pitch.

Too angry to start on our attack but of this XI hopefully only Grealish gets a start in the derby, not that he's been great or even good but all other 10 positions have replacements who aren't playing today and he's been better than Foden (who despite a good month is having a terrible season).

Be funny if it was. I’m sure he wants to win this trophy though… best chance he has of winning 1 this season.

Phillips has been awful. Case to be at fault for both goals.

Absolutely the big winner in all this is Rodri, its the first time he hasn't played since what feels like the day we signed him. His value has probably tripled just from watching Phillips try to play his role. I wonder if Jenas is still sure Phillips "is the better player"

Is there a better feeling than avoiding a match and the result then googling the score and seeing the team you despise losing?!
