Brentford winner!

Probably the best scoreline we could've envisaged before the game. City played well below par for them, so have to keep that in perspective, but we've had worse afternoons....

Our first corner in the 94th minute...

Downes injury and a shed load of subs I guess

Jack Stephens our lone holding midfielder for the last 5 minutes then...

Yeah, ridiculous to keep him on.

I would

Pretty clear that Russ is playing for the 1-0 I reckon...

The keeper tipped that over...?

We had a shot!

Especially given the inevitable praise from Pep that will follow...

Man City up to 3rd gear now

Lallana about to be replaced by Aribo... Surely he can last more than 60 minutes in a pedestrian game like this...?

Armstrong doing a Shane Long there #inevitableoffside

Yep, started going down before the challenge

Yep, up to 2nd gear now... 4 more gears still to go... 🫣

Adam Armstrong coming on... Dibbling off

It's more to do with Man City playing in first gear to be fair, but it means we're still in with a sniff (yeah, I know they'll go up a few gears in the second half and we'll make a load of subs-for-subs-sake that make us weaker, but one can dream.... )

Would he miss more than one game if he ends up getting a red? Might as well go for the red if not 😁

I guess that's what they call a relatively decent first half, all things considered...

Indeed. Perfectly good challenge

You're far too generous, sir. It's actually not as difficult as it looks to achieve my level of intellect. A cheese sandwich would probably be a more proportional reward (with lettuce and mayo, if that's not stretching my credibility and entitlement too far)

He's certainly on an interesting momentum curve...
