Sounds like a cracking game at Carrow Rd. Norwich (my 2nd team) equalised then lost in injury time 4-5.

I suspect they will go down. :sad:

Was a decent enough watch but the excitement of many goals masked some very poor play by both teams.

Highlight was Klopp the Stropp (sic) berating the 4th officlal for 5 mins extra time at the end esp' when Norwich equalised to 4-4 during it.

Not quite, but it was an excellent game. A draw was probably fair.
Following it on the Guardian MBM I was gutted when City equalised. Still, as you say a fair result and a long way better than where we have been in recent seasons.

Glad you had a decent game to watch too.

It was a really good watch. I too thought 1 point was fair but WHUFC shaded it for me - very pacey, direct and strong team - proper English football team!

City have one woeful defence too..
Agreed. Did you see Hart

They're lucky that Aguero is so good. Our second goal was Sunday league defending.

Hart - I thought his outstretched stopper from the free kick to the LH of his goalmouth was superb. What are you referring to? You obviously get to see more at the ground.

City are not playing that well this season with Aguero's absences, the loss of Kompany is a killer for them and Tourre is an enigma - looks like he doesn't want to be on the park for long periods of the game. Terrific squad though and way ahead of the rest of the league in terms of strength in depth.

Wouldn't mind betting they will win the title though although I still think Arsenal is more likely - speaking of which we (CFC) are there today and my expectations are the lowest they've ever been on a visit to their place. Normally one where I'd think a good point was on the cards and on a really good day three points was, although not easy, definitely do-able. Today I'm a long way from that........

Anyway, great season so far for your lads & Bilic is really rather good.

Sorry, mangled post. Yes I meant his save from Payet's free kick. We couldn't work out how he managed to get to it! We thought Song was our best player, deservedly MOTM, and Byram looked decent on debut.

Yes - I thought the lad (Byram) did well against KDB who was kept pretty quiet. Same when Sterling was subbed on,

Big step up for him and he did well. I wonder if he would have gotten a chance yesterday if not for the injury. Either way a good opportunity well taken.
