Look, we all know that the Premier League is corrupt, that is without doubt. It would be weird if any organisation or entity that produces gazillions of pounds / dollars /euros and extras floating around was not! But why does Haaland keep picking on us? Also our two best players i.e RAN and Cunha both chose to have shockers! Thought that Semedo was excellent, might be a late shout for Player of the Season! FWAW .

I don't think they had shockers. The fact that Gvardiol ran into RAN after getting his shot away and RAN ends up being penalised might have knocked his confidence. Cunha didn't get the ball played to him because our players weren't allowed to make any sort of contact with Man City players without conceding a free kick.

I don't mind losing but for the ref to dictate the outcome is an absolute disgrace. VAR needs to go. It has taken all of the enjoyment out of the game. It is not correcting mistakes, it is confirming mistakes made by incompetent referees.

Pawson and Atwell need investigating.

I thought we were looking quite organised and ready for what we knew would be a tough game until the first pen decision, then there was a resignation of the 'forces' being against us again and no matter what we did we wernt going to get anywhere. The head drops and the morale is taken from you. The effort is sapped and concentration goes. Mistakes occur and you hand the opposition chances that they won't fluff. All 5 goals were as a result of A. Var/ref then poor effort awareness by us. Its pretty clear to me that VAR is dictating outcomes directly and indirectly. Scrap the system now and let's get back to game that can be be debated not dictated.

The sooner we get a super league the better. Bin these untouchables off and start making the league competitive again like the Championship. City are a good side. Their bench cost more than our squad, but once you're playing against the Ref, VAR etc the outcome is predetermined and it's just a matter by how much. Once the first penalty was given we gave up. it was never a penalty in the first instance but I think all the injustices over this season have finally got to our players and TBH who can blame them. For me another hollow victory for the elite. I'll also add that I don't expect City or any of these 'elite' teams will get punished by the PL for FFP breaches. In short this league is quickly becoming a joke. The best league in the world! If it continues in this vein it'll just become a laughing stock.

Agree. It already started before the game with the O'Neil banned and choice of VAR and on field ref. After the first pen we all know where it was going. And I think the players knew it to.City should be good enough to win a home game without this rubbish.

The MotD team said it was a ridiculous penalty. Gvardiol had already got his shot away which was going high, wide and handsome and then during his follow through, made contact with AIT. How exactly did AIT stop a goal scoring opportunity considering the attacker had already fluffed his shot?

Well at least we know for next season that against the Sky 6 we'll be playing 11v13.

Rubbish Jas. Micah Richards said it was a penalty. Remind me who he used to play for.

Micah Richards showed his impartiality yesterday.
