I think that may have been the greatest 23 seconds of my life.

 

[Rajma]

Fair play.

Yeah he's one of the few decent opposition posters.

 

[Zoo]

No complaints, we had a meltdown tonight. No excuses, given how we've been crying about tackles, Delphs was stupid, was it a red? was a close call but it was a stupid challenge on a nothing ball. Aguero had one of those games where he got wound up for nothing and spent more time mouthing and being a cnut than playing.

Dunno what happened with Sergio and that fan and our fanbase really letting themselves down. Bad night for us made to look worse by the behaviour of supporters and possibly Kun.

Zero excuses, Wigan worked hard, we were poor in front of goal and with our final ball. Well done Wigan. Fair play to Paul Cook post-match interview, really classy, some premier league managers, Pep included could learn from that.

Well said.

 

[FootballHQ]

Spurs the favourites for this competition now imo.

Can see Chelsea losing to Leicester.

Man. United will go furthest in champions league so that could well impact on things.

Leicester the dark horses.

 

[Litch]

Crazy, I'm watching the debate after losing 1-0 and it's still a kiss City's backside. The Pep appreciation irrespective of what they are doing is laughable. There's a few twist and turns and if winning the PL only, this will be seen as failure as he will have achieved nothing more than the other managers before him.

That's absolutely terrible

 

[Summit]

United will go furthest in champions league so that could well impact on things.

What are you basing that on?

 

[FootballHQ]

Thought Guardiola would go on a hour long critique about the dark arts of English football so his comments weren't too bad, accepted it was a red was a sensible thing to do given the way he was lecturing others on tackles.

 

[Adam-Utd]

I think that may have been the greatest 23 seconds of my life.

Holy hell I literally lolled. I can just imagine Eric sitting there singing like this at FT

 

[Jacko21]

Something about City looked off from the beginning. They had very little rhythm.

Also think you saw what a Laporte and Stones partnership looks like. Vulnerable.

And from you ... losing isn't nice but how you take it shows class. Well done.

 

[FootballHQ]

What are you basing that on?

You'll comfortably beat Sevilla and will probably get a softish quarter final draw like Roma.

Chelsea going out to Barca.

Spurs could well get through but think they'll lose in the quarters.

 

[diarm]

Is it wrong that I really want us to sign Will Grigg so we can sing that song?

I got so caught up listening to it that I started wondering if a Brexit caused unified Ireland would be worthwhile so we can sing it at Lansdowne Road!

 

[Jacko21]

The same dark arts that Pep has been using his entire career to achieve results.

Not so nice when it’s used against him.

Gracious response.

 

[Trizy]

Hope Arsenal spank them now.

 

[Dumbstar]

Basing it on the same sound footing as Utd definitely finishing 2nd in the league without a hint of doubt.

 

[redNATION]

Leicester the dark horses.

You mean a team that hasnt won anything in a decade, and drawn their tie, are favourites over two teams who have routinely won this competition over the last decade?

 

[Tincanalley]

Also having just tuned in I can't understand why there's any question over the red card. He's flying in, off the ground, studs up, out of control, catches the man. Potential leg breaker, absolute stonewall red. Ten years ago that's a stonewall red too. Twenty years ago you'd be lucky to get away with a yellow for that.

Glad to hear someone else saw it that way.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

Wish they played "Don't look back in anger"

 

[reddaz71]

Straight jackets required by Pep and the City fans,zero dignity in defeat!

No matter how much oil money they have you cannot buy Spirit,heart,desire and commitment!

Well done little old Wigan,fully deserved!

 

[Siorac]

We won it once in the last 10 years. Not exactly routine. Wigan have the same record.

 

[tony54]

Haha brilliant result and I hope Agüero gets a ban for lashing out at a fan, Pep gets a ban for his ridiculous antics after the sending off and City gets the book thrown at it because of their fans behaviour. Well done Wigan.

Enjoyed Mcity getting dumped and showing their true colours.
Mourino will definitely win the leagues best manager award after this.

 

[Tosicsleftpeg]

If arsenal brea then on Sunday....

 

[Sassy Colin]

BBC News said it was a big upset. I can't think of anyone, apart from Berties, who would be upset.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

Anyone can say few words on english commentators and post match analysis in studio? Were they crying? Anyone said, God forbid, bad word about Pep?

 

[Jaybomb]

Quadruple my arse

De Bruyne didn’t start.

 

[redNATION]

Chelsea have won it 3 (or 4?) meaning, together we've won the last 5 of 10, but somehow Spurs are favourites ahead of both of us?

 

[duffer]

Quadruple my arse

That's what she said.

 

[Smudge]

That's what she said.

Nasty

 

[Nikhil]

Haha. Great goal by Will Grigg. He's certainly on fire.

Where's your quadruple now, huh, Kompany?

 

[Siorac]

Chelsea have won it 3 (or 4?) meaning, together we've won the last 5 of 10, but somehow Spurs are favourites ahead of both of us?

It's a better argument to say that Spurs are actually behind both United and Chelsea in the league. That we won the FA Cup in 2015 and Chelsea won it in 2012 is pretty much irrelevant.

 

[whatwha]

Well done and thank you Wigan

You and @duffer are 2 of my favorite opposition posters. Fair play.

 

[Nikhil]

Wigan beat City in the FA in 2013, 2014 and 2018. Three times in recent memory!

Thanks lads!

 

[ajay1002]

Wish they played "Don't look back in anger"

Or 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out'

 

[Nikhil]

Playing Wonderwall at full time was class.
