I don't see why its a problem, and wouldn't we love to see our own teams hand out a few thrashings like this to other teams, just now and then!!.
If the Millers were smashing Woking 9-0 you'd absolutely live it up , you wouldn't give a shyte about Woking .
Ease off , absolutely not , what's this a charity game .
I absolutely love Man City and I'll tell you why , they've had their bad times , twenty years ago they were in league one whilst their city rivals were winning the treble , imagine that if you were a city fan .
It's all about standards , the standards are high because that's what it takes to achieve in football today .
Why not applaud the fact Pep wants to win every trophy possible and puts his strongest team out within reason whenever he can and respects every competition .
Ease off my @ass .
Well said mate.
They are the true Manchester club, supported almost exclusively by Mancunians although this demographic is starting to change. They are still developing as an elite club, it's taken over 10 years for them to get this far and great progress has been made but they are just at the beginning of their adventure as one of football's elite.
They were always a sleeping giant, they're now awake.
I know that it's not quite the same as for Man. City, but when we beat Port Vale 7-0 at Millmoor, I was hoping that we would keep scoring, , especially as they had been clogging us for the whole game
Man City fans deserve it they had some terrible years and still turned up in numbers.
I respect Pep more now than before he has taken both competitions seriously and played to win.
I saw something on social media the comment was who wants to see a team beat 9-0 well I’d guess the supporters of the team who’s winning.
If we were hammering a team I wouldn’t want us to ease up.
When we scored 5 in league 1 we wanted more it’s just how it is.
Respect to a driven manager and team money doesn’t buy you that kind of drive and determination.
**** em
Thing is through December (before the Liverpool game) Man City had been on a poor run losing to Chelsea Leicester and Palace and drawing with Leicester. They didnt go into these 3 games (Liverpool, Roth and Burton) off the back of a great run of form. I expect the manager need to ensure there were no more slip ups (ie Liverpool).
Have a read through the Man City forums now though, their fans have caught "massive syndrome" from their neighbours.
If we got bought by some Sheikh from the UAE would everyone on this site become insufferable do you think?
(Yes I know, I am already).
