I know that what I’m going to say it’s against everything I’ve stood for, as City should feel robbed. But fuck them for once.
Robbed is having a legit goal taken from you. This is: they “might” have scored a goal. No reason to feel robbed.
It's hard to feel sorry for them when they've had multiple controversial decisions go their way this season while title challengers have been robbed and all City fans have done is laugh and tell them to get over it. Same as they did when they won the league by a point after the Rodri handball. Didn't hear them complaining then. Fuck em.
Poor decision but probably not even in the top 5 this season with Wolves, Liverpool and Palace receiving worse decisions.
If this was a late Tottenham chance there would be absolute uproar. If the users here can't turn their bias of City aside to agree this was a terrible decision and that City aswell as us City fans have every right to feel annoyed then none of you have any right to start moaning about the next shitty ref decision. Similarly to last week if the Dias disallowed goal situation was flipped round and was actually a disallowed Liverpool equaliser they'd be crying in the streets over the BS calls City get.
Regardless of what you "believe" would've happened if the game played on the fact is noone knows whether City score or not but it was an excellent chance and Grealish deserved the chance to attempt it. He had fresh legs, had just scored and we'd caught Tottenham with their pants down. The fact Emerson didn't even get booked for hacking Haaland down with no intention to play the ball says it all.
Exactly.
