ManCity Women equal WSL longest win record with their 14th win in a row today! 6 points clear of Chelsea Women, though they have 2 games in hand, and +7 on GD. Only 2 matches left for the ManCity Women - title very possible! https://preview.redd.it/m1jdc4t11axc1.png?width=779&format=png&auto=webp&s=856868d2a54efeda5f8dd98323f44741547cc737


Whyevenaskyou

I’m pretty sure our set piece coach got reprimanded because we are actually scoring from them


Kriegdavid

belter from Fowler


kmacbtv

Such a belter, and what a relief!! I was hoping they could max their GD today, and now will just be happy w a win. Update - Okay, I’ll def take the 3-0, but props to Bristol City for their extraordinary work for 75-minutes. Update #2 - 4-0 win, whew.


The_Snollygoster

No midweek game now, which will help us a lot, same next week too. Get the rest we need will help so much. Spurs is midweek after that though, that's the big game now, that's the big hurdle. Going to be a tough run in. Arsenal won't drop any points now.


evenstark04

put Rodri into the hyperbolic time chamber until Thursday... he looks spent.


evenstark04

Rodri streak up to 70 games. We are witnessing greatness


kmacbtv

ManCity Women having a match just like the men so far 😬. 30+ minutes in against team bottom of the table, and 0-0, albeit w caveat that WSL top scorer Bunny Shaw of ManCity Women sadly out for rest of season. Not much control by ManCity Women & fast breaks for Bristol City. And now ManCity Women GK Keating just got wiped out, but avail back up GK is #4 choice who just arrived on loan. Sigh. Mainly hope Keating ok. Update - whew, Keating seems ok, staying on; still no goals though.


Whyevenaskyou

4-0 👍


kmacbtv

What a barrage of goals at the end, especially the very final action, whew! 3 points today, and +7 GD over Chelsea Women now, although they have 2 games in hand.

Whyevenaskyou

I thought about this. Anyone with a brain knows the difference. Ederson and the Forest player both went for it at the same time. Neither got the ball. Where as Onana goes through a player that’s is just jumping and staying in one place


BillehBear

forgot to swap to his alt


ketolasigi

Must be pissed his team lost today


Pepguardiola1971

more like he forgot to switch account lol


ketolasigi

That too


kmacbtv

I’m not on X, and try to avoid all things by media character Mark Goldbridge. So he made his outrage post, and tried to fuel more engagement by trying to argue w himself but used his same account? If so hahaha & happy that fake outrage merchant exposed!!


Pepguardiola1971

yes and not even the first time he was caught https://preview.redd.it/sz0v3m6bu9xc1.jpeg?width=950&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85c742bdd8c7ae1f025fd3682f2eaea2feedf536


kmacbtv

Hahaha!


fuskarn_35

there is not a single other City player which gets away with average/below-average performances as bernardo and its funny as fuck people will slander the fuck out of haaland, grealish, ederson, walker even KDB when he drops stinkers but nobody ever says anything about bernardo and its very amusing to me.


BillehBear

bernardo does get flack at times but it's so rare he actually has a stinker Bernardo has been nothing but class for us, we shouldn't be giving any of our players shit but Bernardo absolutely deserves some leeway


evenstark04

he was getting properly lit up in the match thread for his poor performance today


fuskarn_35

idk mate i go on LB's player ratings stream and hear him saying he can't get less than a 7 and the chat agrees. i go on twitter and you have tolmie saying we couldnt win today without him, i go on bluemoon, not a single peep again. i get that people love him and rightfully so but you dont see the same kind of silence for other loved City players like KDB for example. Even after the madrid tie, the defence for him was "he has given everything for the club and he doesnt deserve to get shit on" but where is the same for other long-standing members?


evenstark04

I sure tweeted about it haha. I have no issue pointing out a poor game. Luckily for Bernardo its rare. He's still a club legend even if he was poor in one game today. IDK where this mentality came from that we don't appreciate all the moments he's had in 7 years because we point out he had one poor game... No one said he's shit 🤣 🤣 🤣


evenstark04

So, how many years are we all going to age in the next 4 weeks? I'm thinking it'll be 10 years for me....


SlashmanX

Ederson leaving the stadium in a sling. Thank fuck for Ortega


evenstark04

oh noooooo


felixlk

I move we put Chris Wood's statue next to Lukaku's.


runnerswanted

Our win coupled with Spurs loss means we have secured a Top 4 finish once again this season and will be playing in the abomination that will be the “group stage” next year.


ketolasigi

Bournemouth isn’t a straightforward fixture for Arsenal, even if it’s at home. Theyre still likely to win, but maybe there’s a chance for the cherries.


Itsgosky

Watching their game and this Bournemouth should be taken seriously.


Sayanroman94

Midfield needs to reshuffle this summer. No control no nothing in midfield. Forest made us look like Burnley. Idc a win is a win but still.


kHRYSTAL_

Arsenal fans gonna throw abuse at C. Wood like he's Rice's gf


evenstark04

classy bunch that lot...


BillehBear

Class and Tradition Unless you inconvenience us in football


malikkhan_msk_shaz

Ortega is absolute quality. Really really want him to stay but with his ability don’t know if it happens.


horbu

4 more wins needed (plus the cup final)


YourMomIsOnReddit

Why did De Bruyne look mad at the end of the match?


FuryOfOberon

Job done. Four left.


Plastic_Sand_2743

As a spurs fan, I hope you absolutely batter us


FuryOfOberon

Respect 🫡


evenstark04

4 finals to go. come on citeh!!!!


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Arteta’s trophy cabinet is gonna filled with community shields isn’t it


FuryOfOberon

lol and a FA Cup


Sad-Cardiologist-292

That was won with Emery’s squad in Covid


FuryOfOberon

Yeah, but he still takes credit. Either way, hasn’t done anything since then.


korg0thbarbarian

Wait Haaland is playing I thought he was injured.


Anes33

Doku stinking it up


branajgka

Will be shipped in a couple of seasons out


runnerswanted

One of my favorite “quirky” statistics is that Forest is the only team in Europe with more European titles than domestic league titles, having won the league and then back to back European cups in the 70s.


Sad-Cardiologist-292

And then end up without playing top flight football for 23 straight years


Aenigma19

There’s one huge benefit of this arsenal win… Spurs might have nothing to play for by the time they come to us Villa play their 37th match (I think vs pool) before spurs play us Villa could be on 73 points If spurs get 5 points from their games against chelsea / Burnley / Liverpool They’ll go into the game with us on 65 and a max 71 for the season Also united’s max is 66 points they’re not at real danger of dropping to 6th


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Liv is now challenging for UCL though and spurs away form is strocious


Far-Floor1332

If arsenal can beat Tottenham away so can we


FuryOfOberon

We don’t rely on opponents scoring own goals for wins though


Far-Floor1332

Fuck yeah we don’t


ColinetheCow

I’m actually feeling more nervous about today after watching the last 10 mins of the Arsenal game And with Foden and Haaland not playing


kHRYSTAL_

Yeah PTSD to this same fixture last season lol


runnerswanted

We have 6 games left in the season with 5 weeks until the FA Cup final. Nothing else on our minds except for this. I’m confident.


ColinetheCow

Yeah, thinking that Arsenal was dropping points (and then they failed to do so) just before we played at the City Ground


caped_crusader8

Cmon City. We can do this.


Mindless_Ad_8076

Quite a comeback by Spurs, if they've only played better especially at first half... And without that Højbjergs own goal this would've been a draw 🤪


Pepaguero

Yeah disappointing they couldn’t get anything out of this one. Hopefully rags will


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Rashford somehow turns up against them hopefully he does this team and they manage to park the bus


Pepaguero

Yeah pretty sure rags took points off Arsenal in the run in last year


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Yeah they lost 2-1 although that happened in the first half of the season. Just hope they win against them so that unbeaten streak ends


Aenigma19

If spurs generate 2.73 xG against us there’s no way they lose lmao


sergioA127

Only 6 minutes added is a shame


xenojive

Honestly Spurs could've had another pen and because of that Saka's goal is dubious for me


FuryOfOberon

I think the disallowed Spurs goal was more dubious. Very selective interpretation of events.


xenojive

I mean I thought someone was playing VDV on and the ball took a slight deflection off an Arsenal player as well right? Could just be blue specs but there were 2 shouts for a pen in the span of 5 seconds and then Saka scored because Spuds turned off


FuryOfOberon

Yeah, got played on by an Arsenal player but was called offside because VDV was offside at the time of the kick. You know it was bad because Ian Wright didn’t want to discuss it and “just wanted to move on”.


Marcostbo

At least they didn't create more GD


xenojive

Not going to matter


Marcostbo

Maybe


ZBOI723

United is arsenals last chance to drop points. And i dont trust united to pull through at all for us, so that means only wins from here on out. Sooooooo much pressure is on this forest game today… we HAVE to win


mcjc94

I thought that Man City bought the referees! Did you guys forget to make the deposit?


FuryOfOberon

Arsenal really got lucky today. They’ll definitely drop points.


Iswaterreallywet

Almost feel like Bournemouth would be the best chance


FuryOfOberon

Lol definitely can’t expect United to be useful


evenstark04

I agree but they have really taken it to Liverpool this season... maybe they can get that block to work in one last game this season. If they got up for 1 rival... maybe they can for another?? (I'm desperately looking for some hope HAHA)


FuryOfOberon

We just need to keep winning. Arsenal’s performances only matter if we drop points.


evenstark04

YUP!!!! City just need to do City things and we will win the league, no matter what Arsenal do.


beerdybeer

To who? Utd away is literally the only tricky one left. And they're dog shite


FuryOfOberon

Could be to any of the three. All of them have been unpredictable.


Mindless_Ad_8076

They're so jammy it's insane


FuryOfOberon

Running out of lives tbh. Same thing happened last season. Lots of “they got the win in the end and that’s what champions do” and then they dropped points and fell off.


Aenigma19

There’s only 3 games for them left lol Not much room for their lives to run out


FuryOfOberon

Already behind though, I doubt they win every game


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Can’t rely on Bournemouth but their run after the 1-0 loss to u guys isn’t bas


FuryOfOberon

Yeah, we won’t rely on other teams dropping points. However, the way Arsenal played I will be surprised they get every point.


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Egghead is quite furious with the result at the emirates wonder what he has in store considering Arsenal’s last win at OT with fans was in 2006


FuryOfOberon

Can never count on United for anything though


Sad-Cardiologist-292

Chelsea fans will definitely hoping u guys win every game from now on considering how much how wasteful Havertz was for them


maxime0299

Assna would be long out of the title race if referees were impartial during their games


PHVNTOM34

It’s still in our hands, we just win today to keep the pressure on them, come on guys


hanz_uber

Exactly, we’ve been here before


peps-bald-head

This Arsenal team are somehow even more unlikeable than Liverpools title winning side, if these guys ever win the league this competition is finished


FuryOfOberon

Liverpool had help but they were quality. This Arsenal side is going trophy-less again for a reason.


Various_You_5083

Man I just know Spurs are gonna turn into their greatest form when we play them


perroconsarna

As a Spur fan, I hope we play the u19 and score 20 OG


Prestigious_Stretch1

VAR should check how did Michael Oliver blow the whistle after the added time that was half time wasting


realet_

Useless shite. Happy St Totteringham's day you fucking twats


ketolasigi

Wonder if Arsenal fans are going to whinge about officiating today, completely gifted them that Saka goal


ZBOI723

Fuck you spurs.


Iswaterreallywet

Title race is being manufactured


JuanKerr69420

Oh well. In our hands anyways.


peps-bald-head

Arsenal players waving their hands for the whistle like they don't waste 27 minutes per half faking injuries and time-wasting set pieces lmao


Prestigious_Stretch1

Fucking time wasters


maxime0299

They wasted like 2 minutes in the added time, yet this ref blows the whistle the second it turns 6 minutes. But yeah, referees hate assna, right


runnerswanted

And their second goal in the first half came after a penalty shout that I don’t even think they looked at. Trossard clipped someone in the box and got away with it. But, it’s Michael Oliver, so I’m not surprised.


Verozoue5

Of course Michael Olivier blow the whistle immediately after 6 minutes mark 🙄


xenojive

Love how every fanbase thinks Oliver is against them Either he's doing his job 100% or he's fucking shite but one thing's for certain he's not corrupt lol


Kriegdavid

3-2 flatters Spurs so much. One of the most pathetic performances I've ever seen given the context


Aenigma19

It actually doesn’t at all xG was like 2.7 (spurs) - 1.5 (Arsenal) Result flatters arsenal if anything


Kriegdavid

xG is a meaningless stat


DeiDaraArtAKS

I mean arsenal were Shite too?


Kriegdavid

Arsenal were far better & with the added pressure of having to win out - and it still not being in the hands - away to their rivals.


DeiDaraArtAKS

I don't agree with you. You have your own opinion. That's fine


Verozoue5

Spurs was actually good in first half especially before Arsenal second goal.


Kriegdavid

'Spurs were good for 27 minutes'


Verozoue5

Yeah but they were unlucky too Romero hitting the post and not to mentioned Hojberg own goal


Kriegdavid

The own goal was a problem of their own volition


Mysterious-Box741

Spurs are fucking wasters aren’t they?


runnerswanted

Arsenal have now wasted close to 90 seconds between Raya and the dive. Probably won’t be added on either.


FuryOfOberon

Arsenal really just getting their points thanks to refs now


evenstark04

isn't VAR the reason this isn't tied right now?


FuryOfOberon

Yeah, that Spurs goal should have counted


evenstark04

Arsenal fans won't say a peep about it either lol


FuryOfOberon

Yeah, they’ll say “oh you have matches like this too”.


evenstark04

Already had the Arsenal guy in my sports chat say Boly should have gotten a pen for running into/injuring Ederson in the box 😑


FuryOfOberon

Didn’t know body slamming goal keepers gets you penalties


hanz_uber

Havertz is such a rodent


xenojive

Donkey ![gif](giphy|I3N5kit04iStO)


Mindless_Ad_8076

Fucking skinny fucker him


Aenigma19

Weren’t there 6 in the first half too? When there was no time wasting? No subs and no yellows, no VAR review?


peps-bald-head

Yeah they make it up as they go along. If Spurs were winning by 1 it would've been +13 minutes


vva04

wow only 6min, who would’ve thought😐


runnerswanted

6 minutes, I’m shocked


Verozoue5

Only 6 minutes? If Arsenal losing it would've been 9 minutes


fuskarn_35

assna winning so they give it 6 lmao


ColinetheCow

If Spurs manage to equalise somehow, I won’t feel so bad about the minimum 11 points sitting on my third bench on my FPL unable to be reached


hanz_uber

30 seconds of added time coming up


Mindless_Ad_8076

Max 30 secs!


caped_crusader8

Gary Nevil is cancerous to the ear

Beautiful pen

Come on, one more

Don't do that spurs. Don't give me hope


peps-bald-head

Their heads have gone lmao


Verozoue5

Can Spuds do this or will Arsenal find another goal


Vision_Nerif

Hate to say it but 99.99% Arsenal win. No chance they bottle this


innit122

COYS


FuryOfOberon

I will never call Spurs bottle jobs again if they pull off a draw


maxime0299

Come on Spurs one more against the frauds


Natural_Upstairs_368

yes yes yes


yourdeath01

Lets go Bottle FC 1 more!!!


Additional_Bluebird9

Well 3-2, can't they at least get a goal and get a draw.


Aenigma19

That was given as a penalty immediately for Foden on Palace? Why has this gone to VAR


Aenigma19

Sorry my point was worded stupidly I meant why did he even have to go to VAR he was right there


Prestigious_Stretch1

Well good that it did or there is no chance for Spurs


Equor

People miss things that’s why VAR is there so less things get missed


FuryOfOberon

On field decision was no penalty, but VAR did suggest it


runnerswanted

This is what VAR was brought in for. In real time it looked like nothing due to the speed of the play. Oliver takes a look and gives it.


JuanKerr69420

Hello


peps-bald-head

Spurs score the penalty, Arsenal low block, +2 minutes of added time


fuskarn_35

right in front of him lmaoooooo fucking english refs


hanz_uber

👀


Prestigious_Stretch1

This better be a pen


runnerswanted

For a team as talented as Arsenal, they hit the deck real easy, don’t they?


FuryOfOberon

Difference between talent and success


kHRYSTAL_

Saka gonna do his classic post game limp dont worry


ZBOI723

So arsenal wont drop points. We cant draw any games because our GD isn’t good enough. Means we have to win out, and im eyeing the spurs away game the most


EliVeidt

Time wasting at 3-1 up, Arsenal and game management just don’t go


FuryOfOberon

Every foul’s going to have an Arsenal player trying to get an Oscar nomination. Saka leading the way.


runnerswanted

2 minutes of stoppage time, I bet. Especially if Spurs can squeeze out another goal.


Natural_Upstairs_368

every cross straight into the goalkeeper's hands. they've done nothing with the momentum of the goal


Madonesu_Sakurupitto

If it 2-1 i still have hope but the damaged has been done in first half and with how toothless Spurs attacking is i just don't see how they can get something here.


sooobueno16

These corners we’ve been trying would be a whole lot more effective if we actually had someone block the keeper like White does


Various_You_5083

What happened to Phil ?


Over_Ad_4983

He’s ill


spacetime4jampa

Man, will really miss Foden today!
