exactly how I feel when I see the turgid bilge you post.
You forgot one
-played on the left and came inside unto his right every. fucking. time...
And having a higher xG than someone means you've missed the better chances so it's not really that much to brag about...
I don’t demonise him, I just think he’s shit and haven’t been proven otherwise yet
If he turns his form round and shows that he has the ability to belong at the club then I’ll be the first to congratulate him and hold my hands up
One cameo yesterday in which he did sweet fuck all isn’t that for me
he effectively scored a goal, which was disallowed for no discernable reason
he had a much better game than Regulion
provided multiple crosses from the "wrong" side
like I said, he's not special, but he's he's a squad player
It's not his fault he's a right footed RB that was played on the left. There's no doubt the entire team and Conte himself knew that was what he would be doing.
As for the XG - it was higher because he got into the position to score a goal. A position fan favourite Son didn't do for 90 minutes.

Doherty in his 45 minutes
- twice as many passes as Kane
- Same number of shots as Kane and Son
- Won more aerial duels
- Made more crosses (I'm not sure Son completed a cross in the entire game)
- Got the ball in the back of the net
- Had a higher XG than SON
Not bad for a 'dreadful' player.
We didn't score the winner because Son is ineffective against teams that park the bus and Kane is still struggling to get any time on the ball. Excellent balls were played into the box by both Winks and Doherty which our strikers failed to attack. The piss poor header from Son took the biscuit!

Doherty played really well compared to some of his previous outings, especially considering he was on his wrong foot. Got forward pretty well, can’t blame for not going outside or using his left
Yes we can say we was robbed. But in the cold light of day this team doesn’t have the killer instinct to put games like this to bed . Could you imagine Man City playing against 10 men Southampton would probably at least have scored three or four .
Very disappointed yesterday in the ref/VAR decisions.
However today I take solace that we received 2 favourable VAR decisions against Liverpool so it doesn’t feel unbalanced.

Even City sometimes struggle against a parked bus, getting past 10 men sitting in front of the goal is not easy for any team.
The difference is that they never would have let Saints bully them in the first half the way we did. We only got a grip of the game once they lost a man.
that's what I've been saying all along on here ffs. Nothing to do with "if Kanes ever scored with his armpit"..the cunt Atkinson decided to draw the line through his arm and not his shoulder.
Can you also imagine those city goals being struck off incorrectly?
This is so disheartening. As someone said in the original Reddit thread - this should go viral.
Two wrongs don't make two wrongs rights, right? Alright?
But we did put it to bed. Kane scored. We forced their keeper to score an own goal.
What SHOULD happen, is that no lines are drawn.
Without the lines, Kane looks onside. Give the goal. That's how it should work. Cursory 5 second glance. The grass stripes should be the only reference point.
Look at the still imagine, without the red and blue lines, and look at the players relative to the stripes. Looks onside.
I thought that VAR should only overall where a clear mistake had been made by the on-field officials. Based on any line that anyone wants to draw it absolutely isn’t clear, and that’s where the injustice lies.
And yet, when the referee clearly got it wrong with the "Doherty" goal, VAR did nothing.
It's bent. Refs are bent. They've always been bent.
