Ok my reflections on yesterday.
The City Ground was back to its rocking best because the lads put a good shift in. I said before the game that a defeat by 2 goals would be an excellent result because it leaves our goal difference advantage over Burnley and Luton just about intact. City can damage you 5 or 6 nil. That goal difference is like an extra point atm.
It could have been better had Chris Wood not had an off day, but that's what you get when you are obliged to play a £15 million striker in the twilight of his career rather than, say, Haarland at the peak of his career at £60million, supported by Grealish at £100 million, De Bruyne at £55 million Doku at £60 million. I could go on but you get my point. Of course if we hadn't spaffed millions up the wall with Arter, Lingard, Bowler, Kouyate, Turner, Vlach etc etc etc we might be in a market higher than the £15 to £30 million bracket but that's another argument ( plus we might be 4 points better off).
It was great to see Elanga and Aina burn Walker off for pace a few times. I think Englands fastest full backs knees have gone with his serial sha""ging! ????.

If he wasn’t good enough to be a footballer he could have been a cooper!

Do you mean cooper or copper Carlo. I’m not sure SC was a ladies man mate! ???.

If you meant “copper” mate, I can tell you that before amalgamation in the early 1970s Nottinghamshire had 2 entirely separate Police Forces, the County and the City. The County Officers were renowned shag”ers and the City renowned drinkers.
I guess it was just a question of local opportunities, plenty of pubs in the city and plenty of lonely ladies in the countryside! ??????.
