Was great to see him back. Dont care much for the awards, but it means a lot to the players.
And Rodri deserved a welcome back regardless.

Nobody is writing them off. The casino almost always wins.
Of course people will get happy when there's stumbles though as the charges will amount to nothing. Pep these days needs an 8 point deficit just to feel alive.

sometimes the cliff comes very quickly. Pep needs to put some youth into midfield just to run with oppo players at this point. I'm not sure he will as he has always back the same players to turn it around, but I'm not sure if some are able to anymore

He hasn’t been lately. Two goals in last 7 games with xg of 7.8. He had several chances wasted in this game
He’s definitely a handful, has all the raw ingredients to become a long term CF. One of the rare moments I saw Saliba troubled last season was with a burst of pace and acceleration from Jackson, it made me sit up and take notice. Still very young and once he gains more experience and fine tunes the final ball, look out.

It's a shocking result in itself but to do in City's own backyard is particularly impressive. What's that? Five straight losses for City now?
Probably actually bodes poorly for us next week as it's unlikely they will lose 6 on the bounce.
First things first though, we gotta smack Southampton.

Worst possible City result for next week's game. They'll be on a mission and despite this morning's result don't be surprised if they go on a 15 game winning streak

City's biggest home loss since February 2003 when Arsenal beat them 5-1 at Maine Road.
City's biggest loss under Pep since January 2017 when Everton beat them 4-0 at Goodison Park.

i'll take a down season like 2016-17 if it means another centurions run next season.

Early days. Squad razor thin in midfield. New manager. Lots of games. Hopefully FSG opens the wallet in Jan.
Not this time. Remember when Liverpool did win the league they won it by 18 points.
City are not making a charge this year - I cannot see anyway they go basically unbeaten from here with their current squad which is what they would need to do. They will take a year off - which after 4 in a row is entirely reasonable.
This league is between Liverpool and Arsenal. And Liverpool have a decent head start. Arsenal about to go on a run though - their fixture is pretty soft for a while now.
Chealsea are a sleeper. Don’t think they can win but they could finish 3rd. They are building very nicely.

It's not like City were outplayed. They had most of the possession and 23 shots to 9. Haaland might have scored 3.
But the scoreline doesn't lie. A lot of individual errors have crept in. Gvardiol should have done better with the first goal and gave the ball away for the second. For the third Walker and Akanji committed themselves to the same ball but both missed leaving Son in the clear. Grealish gave the ball away for the fourth goal but then we saw Werner outpace Walker. That never used to happen. He looked more comfortable at CB for England in the recent internationals.

They haven’t got it in them this season. I’ll be really disappointed if we don’t pick up 6 points in the next two games.

They may have had 23 shots but they never really felt threatening after the first 10 minutes except for a couple of Haaland moments

Depends why this has been happening.
Defence is struggling and unlikely to suddenly turn around
Rodri is out
Main thing will be a Foden / Haaland /KdB flurry of goals and lots of 3-1 4-2 type wins.

Norgaard was unlucky to get a red card. He's got eyes on the ball as the cross comes into the 6 yard box and he's trying to score. If VAR looks at the freeze frame he does catch Pickford on the knee but there's no intent. There's no reaction from the Everton players. Thomas Frank says they will appeal it.

We have scored the same number of PL goals in Manchester this season as United have
