Bitter sweet

How has it come to this? Playing City at home and expecting nothing other than defeat - I wouldn’t even have bothered making a prediction tonight - and being sort relieved that it was only 2-0?

Absolute shambles. I know people are going to start questioning Ole soon and he’ll definitely have a steep learning curve, but who else could we realistically have got? He earned his stripes and deserves a shot, but he’s got so much to do. Depressing times after the initial feelgood factor when he came in.

As for the title, I just can’t see City blowing it from here. Only some serious last-day drama could save Liverpool, I think.

Agree with what’s been said about United, just makes it worse that we dropped points to them. It would be in our hands if we’d actually had a go at OT.

Ole has a massive job on his hands to take this team forward
But right now he needs to stop this slump a get a result v Chelsea, or its Europa again

I said about a month back i thought Chelsea would make top four. They still have the best squad out of you arsenal and them, and the best player in Hazard.

I think they’ll win next weekend and lock up top four. Arsenal and you guys to play Europa. Might not be the worst thing for you guys, may act as an opportunity to scrap the squad to a certain degree and start again. Rather than trying to paper over cracks as you go just trying to squeeze back into top four again.

Agree with your second para. Sad to say but I think there are players at United right now who don't deserve to be there and won't want to be there if we're not in the CL. If I'm right, then failure to finish in the top 4 will indeed do us a favour.

Funny. Assuming it's all over as if this was THE deciding game.

Even in embarrassing defeat, Man Utd supporters still insufferably arrogant.

I'm glad they lost & the reality is the title has not been decided and Man Utd have been humiliated.

Every silver cloud. Eh??

Agree, if City do win the title you shouldn't look back on this game, you should look back to the 7 point lead you had but couldn't hold on to

Not looking back. Just laughing at how embarrassingly bad Manchester United were tonight.

Truly awful stuff.

I’m happy. Was cheering man City today🙏
