Someone said "C'mon City" to me because I was wearing a Man City hat and T-shirt as I was walking down 7th Avenue.

A very Mancunian weather today in New York.

He is doing insane numbers in Germany. 103 goals in 106 appearances.

Harry Kane says he is less keen on returning to the Premier League than he was when he signed for Bayern Munich.

Just turned it on when Crewe Alexandra with a superb corner kick routine to equalize 1-1 vs. Harrogate Town.

I knew Pulisic would miss the penalty as soon as the Paramount Plus commentary hyped him up.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Very encouraging news. Good on him skipping the Spanish national team. No need for that.

Phew. 3 massive points. I aged 50 years this half.

I really love Gigio smiling with his teammates. You can tell that he settled in.

Erling is relieved.

You tell them, Pep.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Oh Gigio... My heart just stopped literally.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Nico O. gets carded for taking too long on his throw-in. Meanwhile, nothing happens when Brentford takes ages to do theirs.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Gosh. This ref is frustrating.

It's good to see Rodri coaching from the bench.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Oh thanks. I didn't know that.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Wait, how does Savio stay on?

Madness.

I thought towels were banned from throw-ins or something.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Gosh. Henderson is a dirty player. Laughing too.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

I know it's not going to happen in a zillion years, but I would get Cherki on. At least he will be more threatening half fit.

Stop being sloppy, City. Just keep the ball.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Get Doku on for Savio please, Pep.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Yes, I believe so from the reports.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Khusanov please come back ASAP.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

What a save, Gigio!

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 3d

Guarantee that City is getting a yellow card for the faintest of touches on the Brentford player.

Almost 2. It was actually a good save by Kelleher.
