He's been our best player post world cup?

I’m pretty sure he knows his role. He’s understanding it more and more each match. That’s why he’s been in such good form.

I know I’m mostly joking because I’m a Haaland fan and it’s coincided with his cold streak.

Great win! That game in hand is scary but both teams will drop points, it’s gonna come down to who loses and who takes draws. I feel like we will own GD for the season if it comes down to that. I’m happy with where we are considering the recent up and down since WC.

Congratulations, Pep is obviously the Goat.

You guys are going to win the league now as we have no depth and with Jesus and ESR out we suddenly can’t buy a goal, and everyone but the best clubs are simply going to park the bus on us and we can’t make them pay. Very frustrating, but it’s a learning experience.

Congratulations again

Tomi put the ball in, he was City’s best player today.

And Grealish’s shot hit his balls for the goal. Arsenal’s remaining schedule is pretty tame. I don’t see them being in that much trouble BUT I can understand that they are in the funk of their season. How they come out of it will dictate the race for the top. As a City fan I still think it’s arsenal’s until it’s not. It’s hard to win the PL 3x in a row.

Not worth what he’s being paid; but, a darn fine human being. If you’ve ever seen him interact with the disabled you know what I’m talking about. He’s a good man and a wonderful representative for City.

He’s also working his arse off. Taking a beating. Progressing the ball and drawing pens. Happy to get an assist. Was happy to see him get the game winner today. I’m on Team Grealish.

Liverpool, Newcastle, City all away. They just got 1 point from City, Brentford, and Everton.

I still don't think you can say City wins it, but Arsenal is losing steam hard and fast. We've seriously ground out some results the last couple matches (sans spuds), which was desperately needed. Need to keep that up and get back into form.

Dias has to start and Walker needs to get back in shape as well. This team has zero balls if Dias isn't playing and I've said for 4 years now that we're at our best when Kyle is in form.

Maybe not, but he's carried our asses since the WC. If we win it this season, he's worth every penny.

Matches every 3rd day until the end of the month in 3 competitions

Hope they don’t drop points v Forest looking ahead to UCL or vice versa

Almost wish they’d be out of FA Cup to avoid fatigue but it is what it is

Grealish has been worth every penny and he's going to continue to get better. Very excited by what he's been bringing to the pitch every night.

^agreed
Don’t neeed AV Grealish. What he has done and continues to do drawing fouls is exactly what this team needs. Sterling was one that always tried over dribbling in the box but rarely got contact fouls. Jack is habitual.

Sterling post-Lyon was like a glitched out FIFA AI player that got the ball and just ran straight out for a goal kick.

Strong side against Forrest. Need a fast start.

Accidentally slept late. Walked in, cut in peacock and Bilva boots in a banger. 0-1 good guys. Wanted to wake up and watch Arsenal but I see they took care of business. Love when they play before us so we know what we need to do. (Not that we pretty much need to win out to apply most pressure). Again Jack doing work. Here’s to a great second half lads. Cmon City!
