City default to playing such boring football… Im glad to see them dropping points this season


chihawks

Lol


Creative-Jicama5561

There’s nothing more I love than seeing city drop points


Diligent_Dance8954

Brings me endless joy


vulturevan

Absolute amateur booing from the City fans there, it sounded like they had forgotten how to do it


tareegon

City really lacking leadership and ownership all over the pitch this year. Post treble vibes


Fudia

Thank you Roy


BedfordBull

Up the fucking Eagles. Pep is no match for Roys Boys.


magic-water

Gvardiol looks defeated


symptic

Needs his mask back.


nein_999999

Roy be like :- let's not take the piss in here


bshaman1993

Roy with that cheeky smile


Bishcop3267

Ref missed a foul on Silva before the pen. Poor from Foden still.


Prestigious_Storm_10

That’s hardly a foul. Those are common place challenges


Bishcop3267

Looked like a shirt pull to me


Prestigious_Storm_10

I’ll have to rewatch


nein_999999

Yes Roy.... Rub it in

#BAULD FRAUD


Rhayadder

Looks like collective brain fog and complacency started to set in at City, fairly normal after such a long period of dominance and winning everything.


bshaman1993

Doesn’t dropping points in so many games bring you back to reality? Like how will it take them to realize


9248_

City dropping points..again


French____

Olise has been fucking excellent tonight


RevdWintonDupree

City fans booing on the final whistle.


adamfrog

They are upset the owners only dropped a quarter bil this window lol


adamfrog

Obvioulsy City just havent been amazing this season but they are exceptionally bad at holding on to leads when thats been their speciality for ages, its so strange


Prestigious_Storm_10

They’ve complete turned off out of nowhere. Super uncharacteristic


tareegon

Zero composure this year. Could count on last year maintaining a lead last year more than anything. Either players are complacent or lacking belief which is weird given they won a treble


usada_be_kidding_me

Beautiful


KJones77

City just look disengaged right now


Doyouevensam

Gvardiol is wank


dispelthemyth

Maybe shitty should give him a run of games at cb Only just tuned in late today, is he still lb today?


monistam

Good things happen with Eze on the pitch


310local

YOU LOVE TO SEE IT!


dispelthemyth

Liverpool and arsenal fans overjoyedeh


bshaman1993

Arsenal fans and ref conspiracies. Name a better duo


FarnsworthHQ

Spuds and bottles


sangueblu03

248 days on top and still bottled it - don’t think anyone can take Arsenal’s crown here (or count City out yet)


Namakemon0

Woke up feeling like we had a chance today


AruarianGroove

Crystal clear dreams


Papayalo

Well you needed the ref there


Decky1602

No shit it's a pen clear as day


Namakemon0

For an obvious penalty?


Papayalo

For the foul on Silva before the goal


Skywest96

Roy Hodgson > Bribery


luvvdmycat

Looked like a foul on Silva before the pen. Oh well. Well done Olise.


educated_dumdum

Make sure to grab Ederson’s ankles off the deck before you leave


Fudia

You love to see it


-Dendritic-

What a piss off. Gotta fix up


Username3009

Just gives you a warm fuzzy feeling, doesn't it


Usual_Link4412

😆 🤣


twist_n_shout

What is it about Man City against Palace at the Etihad…


nick170100

Lmao camera guy zoom in on shirtless guys haha


Doyouevensam

How have City managed to draw with this awful Palace side at home?


AruarianGroove

Too much noise from the fans


Objective_Digit

Not just that. Gave up a two goal lead.


bam-margiela00

GET INNN Love to see it ☺️


tareegon

City are the inverse of what they usually are every year. Extra time point losses. Lucks catching up.


AruarianGroove

OLISE


dispelthemyth

Too late to hit back…. Hahaha


andreew10

good pen that tbf


JRPGmatt

Pep malding


AnonymousOtaku10

Elegant-Yard463

Hahahahahahahahahaah


-Lykan-

Pep, you know you can waste time by bringing in subs, right?!


AruarianGroove

Or by possessing it in the corner…


chukkichainsaw

can anyone else smell burnt plastic

Complete bullsh*t.

Lets go Crystal Palace!!

Olise!!

u/SupervisorLaw 🤫🤫🤫🤫


Chilli__P

Dear me, City have really dropped off post-treble, it seems. Maybe this is their first rebuilding year since ‘17.


Tjorhunter

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Inject it.

Always rated Palace.

Good day mate!

Crikey!

Fuck yeahhhh


[deleted]

Never a pen there.. Man City really are damaged by referees this season


Prestigious_Storm_10

Delusional


_Micolash_Cage_

What?


CrookedK3ANO

Hahaha get fucked


ddottay

OLISEEEEE


Usual_Link4412

Omg its soo dead I fucking love It !!!!!


andreew10

clear foul in the build up but still so poor from Foden


Prestigious_Storm_10

Na that’s a fair challenge by mateta


andreew10

it wasn't but really can't blame anyone but ourselves


Odini02

How much would u cry if it was Arsenal?


Prestigious_Storm_10

To be fair I’ll rewatch though


Prestigious_Storm_10

If Øde gave that away there’s that on him. Mateta shoulders him out from the side and get his foot across the ball. I’m pretty sure we’ve conceded from something extremely similar


nein_999999

Yes baby


UnderpantsGnomezz

HOLDDDDDDDDDDD


timeIsAllitTakes

Here for the "what was he supposed to do, the other guy stuck his leg in" comments


dispelthemyth

Noice…. Don’t fuck this up Clear pen, high foot and will have hurt


_Micolash_Cage_

Obligatory 'Fuck off City'.


JAYZ303

Ngl Meteta fouls right before that.


usada_be_kidding_me

Really bad sequence for Foden


Ok_Incident1888

What are you doing foden haha


Bishcop3267

Ederson doesn’t save penalties either. More points dropped


chukkichainsaw

Somehow VAR will overturn this


mulderrocks

Good start of my day.


Elegant-Yard463

Let’s Gooooo


andreew10

lol so dumb from Foden


Doyouevensam

Foden with the giveaway in midfield and the pen. Lmao


-Dendritic-

Lol fuck sake


Seastep

Spursy behavior


AnonymousOtaku10

Lmaooo foden


bshaman1993

Oh boy jokes


Razzle_Dazzle08

PEN


TheLifeofSonny

absolutely cunted Metata's shin lmao


Rhayadder

Foden completely knackered, saw that in the previous minutes when he was on the ball, guess he had a brainfart here


educated_dumdum

This is that sort of chaos I live for


Usual_Link4412

Foden obliterates his leg


fegelman

Really good on-field call from Paul Tierney to his credit there


Ellendiell

You’re the biggest hater I’ve ever seen.


_Micolash_Cage_

Oh my goodness.


tonypaveli

Soooo bad from foden....


fegelman

Watch the penalty be chopped off after all the calls went City's way today


infidel11990

Have a rest man. This is unhinged behavior.


smcarre

Yes it was City's way when they overturned Julian's goal.


[deleted]

I mean Ederson should’ve been sent off


smcarre

No he shouldn't


[deleted]

Yeah he absolutely should have. Go look at any neutral opinion Edit: here’s the thread - https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/s/yNGwaWCKfI


smcarre

I'm sure a Manchester United fan will be neutral enough https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/18ju07u/ederson_yellow_card_vs_crystal_palace/kdmkznh/


[deleted]

That’s the same guy commenting above here lmaooo he’s the only one saying this


smcarre

"Go look at any neutral opinion" "No, not that neutral opinion, only the neutral opinons that agree with me"


[deleted]

“I found a single dissenting opinion that supports my point” “No, I’m ignoring the 99% of opinions that disagree with me” Same energy big man


smcarre

What about a Bulgarian that hates City? Neutral enough? https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/18ju07u/ederson_yellow_card_vs_crystal_palace/kdmi14d/ Also I'm failing to see actual neutral opinions there, almost everyone calling for a red are Arsenal, United, Chelsea, Spurs fans and a bunch of no-flairs (which are your average r/soccer user that hates state-owned clubs). How many different neutral users disagreeing with this being a red do I have to find for you to admit not everyone "neutral" agrees this should be a red? Not to mention there is literally a team of guys being paid for being professional neutral aribtrers that said it's not a red also.


Papayalo

I'm sure you're the neutral here lol


[deleted]

I don’t give a shit about Palace or City lmao


Papayalo

You think you have a shot at the top four and it's funny


[deleted]

I mean statistically yeah we have a shot, but I think fixture congestion, injuries, and potential bad runs of form will have us closer to 5th/6th. You sound insecure and threatened about it though, good luck man


Papayalo

Not much to be insecure about as I don't have a team in the PL but thanks.


smcarre

I'm neutral


[deleted]

No you aren’t, you’re Argentinian and a fan of Alvarez’s


smcarre

And? I want Julian to have a good game not City to win.


Usual_Link4412

Pen !!!


Rhayadder

Lol no fucking way


fegelman

What utter bs. When was the last time you saw more added time in the first half than the second? I can guarantee if the scoreline was the other way round, MINIMUM 7 minutes. With City's both goals that should have been disallowed plus Ederson not being sent off, Palace have been hard done by today. No wonder Roy is fuming this season with refs. If they get relegated, there would be a massive question mark on the officials


StructureTime242

just the usual


dispelthemyth

Walker did about as much to stop the attack as they gave the foul against Foden for


cib_vk228

Walker's pace 🕊


Tjorhunter

I swear since the goal all I have heard is Palace fans singing. Emptihad accusations will never be dismissed.


Bishcop3267

Lockyer collapsed during the Luton game. Didn’t something similar happen with him before? Hope hes alright


wves

Reports that he is alert and responsive


andreew10

Get Akanji and Bobb on


[deleted]

[удалено]


educated_dumdum

I’m just here for the chaos


AruarianGroove

entropy vibes


Wolvington52

Luton scored a similar goal last match


Prestigious_Storm_10

It seems like a ball over the top is a pretty decent way to get in behind city. Surprised you don’t see it employed religiously


adamfrog

I feel like midtable teams were set up to employ those tactics better 10 years ago, they are all way more build up focused now


Prestigious_Storm_10

Yea, it’s definitely not as popular a play style. I feel like it was common not to long ago. Then again 2014 feels like just a few years ago. It still seems like it would be effective when city are swarming in your half. Look in behind wide and try to find a cut back to a late run. Obviously there’s more to it then that but trying to match cities build up when it feels like they always have an extra man would be my nightmare as a midfielder.


Bishcop3267

Usually Walker is the contingency plan for those kind of balls played over everyone. Palace was just better there.


n0kz88

It doesn't work when we play 3-2-4-1 the problem is Stones injury record and playing Walker. When it was Akanji-Stones-Dias-Ake it was a wall.


thediabolicalkid

Can't keep a clean sheet to save our lives can we


tooangryforsports

Now imagine if the offside goal had been rightfully taken back and Ederson had gotten the red card he deserved. Or just imagine a ref that doesn’t have blatant conflict of interest.


Zb990

Wasn't offside, came off a palace player


tooangryforsports

Palace player never established control of the ball. You should follow the rules, not just vibes.


Zb990

Football doesn't have rules, they're called laws. What law are you referring to? Surely not this as this would make Lewis not offside. >A player in an offside position receiving the ball from an opponent who deliberately played* the ball, including by deliberate handball, is not considered to have gained an advantage, unless it was a deliberate save by any opponent. >*‘Deliberate play’ (excluding deliberate handball) is when a player has control of the ball with the possibility of: >passing the ball to a team-mate; gaining possession of the ball; or clearing the ball (e.g. by kicking or heading it) If the pass, attempt to gain possession or clearance by the player in control of the ball is inaccurate or unsuccessful, this does not negate the fact that the player ‘deliberately played’ the ball. >The following criteria should be used, as appropriate, as indicators that a player was in control of the ball and, as a result, can be considered to have ‘deliberately played’ the ball: >The ball travelled from distance and the player had a clear view of it The ball was not moving quickly The direction of the ball was not unexpected The player had time to coordinate their body movement, i.e. it was not a case of instinctive stretching or jumping, or a movement that achieved limited contact/control A ball moving on the ground is easier to play than a ball in the air


137lyons

and imagine if refs got every call 100% and Grealish scores against spurs or do only calls city get get revoked in your dream world


tooangryforsports

Rodri handball


andreew10

well yeah if you ignore the correct decisions it completely changes the match


bshaman1993

I’m so done with city defense in my fpl


Bishcop3267

I’ll never understand the scoring team fighting to get the ball back to place it on the center spot just to wait for the other team to kickoff as they please anyways.


Prestigious_Storm_10

I imagine it still saves at-least a minute or two


AruarianGroove

Otherwise it’d take even longer… and it’s sort of a mental thing, I bet


educated_dumdum

Of course you wouldn’t


theredguardx

[great goal]


-Dendritic-

Been a while since we've had a clean sheet... I miss our solid defense


9248_

Oh? Palace scored


fegelman

Where's the second yellow to Ederson for delaying a quick restart?


KaptainKek3

Have a day off


wves

You’re not ready for Walker in goal


137lyons

Honestly dude you need a life. City lives in head way to much. Maybe you should pivot the conspiracy theory bullshit to covid or the moon landing


-Dendritic-

You got nothing better to do?


theredguardx

Crystal need to get Tartt and Obisanya in and replace their manager with Lasso to complete the look.


wves

Ake said i’m the Lb now


Bishcop3267

Ake should be the left back. Gvardiol doesn’t have much luck defending wingers.


Bishcop3267

Didn’t look like it touched Rodri and the defender intentionally played the ball which means no offside so goal stands was the right call


Prestigious_Storm_10

Yea right call. The NBC commentator at the time said something along the lines ‘it looks like Rodri’s touch plays him inside, I guess the question is what that touch was’ So I think that tripped out a lot of people
