Exactly, they realize they are in no position to shoot or pass so try to get contact and then go down. What’s a defender supposed to do?

Exactly, there are many explanations for what he said and no one on here knows exactly what he meant for sure.

Yeah it’s getting ridiculous. After VAR Hudson Odoi got rightly booked for a dive in the box yesterday. That run and dive was virtually identical to Doherty’s against us last week. My bet is that there’d already made 2 (correct) calls against Wolves so didn’t want to make a third one. The system is still wide open to corruption.

Late goal for Arsenal ruled out. Haven’t seen the incident though.

Forwards are now deliberately leaving their leg close to a defender to initiate contact so they can go to ground. Say what you like, that would never have been called a penalty a few years back.

So half saying definite pen the other half saying no way.

That’s never a penalty. Jesus what has the game come to?

The only thing I can come up with to ease the pain is that with the insane spending by the haves means the have nots will face an increasing number of these lopsided score lines as the gulf gets bigger and bigger.

I guess so, just so used to our keepers parrying it straight out to a delighted opponent.

I know eh? Keep having these moments too. The club have been permanently stained with this. We’ll be the punchline to so many jokes for so many years. The useless **** players will move on be we’re stuck with this. 0-9 at home, to ****ing Leicester...****!

Gazzaniga with a few world class saves in the last few minutes vs Liverpool. *sigh*

Couple of world class saves just now. *sigh*

12 players, good plan, should keep City below 6.

Hudson Odoi’s dive almost identical to Doherty’s last week. VAR overturned the decision and a yellow for HO. Typical.

Burnley trying to take our record...

Don’t worry Everton, you play us soon...

Will be a tepid affair as Man City reserves canter to an easy 4-0 win.

Was really strange one, Connelly definitely made a meal of it. Yes the defender stood on his foot by accident but for Connolly to throw himself to the ground I guess is just being smart and forcing the review. It’s a shame that staying on your feet is not the correct thing to do anymore.

I feel bad for those that were whinging and moaning even when we good under Poch and Koeman instead of just enjoying ride. Must be miserable.

I think the players thought they were untouchable after that, they’ve barely tried since. Maybe the team picked up some sort of virus on the septic isle?

Bull...

Delete: Wrong forum!

That’s what I love about hockey, usually after a result like this there’s a huge brawl in training the next day and clear the air talks and it’s back to business.

I just don’t care. **** ‘em. Stupid quitter ****s.

Never felt so disconnected to footballers as in the last few years. They’ll have probably forgotten about this following a drive home to their mansions in their lambos. You wouldn’t have seen Jimmy Case, Barry Horne or Glenn Cockerill giving up like that. This lot couldn’t give a **** about the fans or the club, just their haircuts, cars, tattoos and bank balances.
