Kevin also received my favourite ever piece of hate mail. Disciplined as, Kevin finished an article with recommendation: No bet. A guy wrote in, with the article cut out and said if he wanted someone to tell him not to bet he’d speak to his wife.

I’m not anti-Postecoglou as such but the team was knocked out of the League Cup in August and the FA Cup in January. We’ve had one league clean sheet since Christmas and it was the manager who has continually said the top four wasn’t important. But yeah fans fault!

Man City pushed for VAR then Guardiola has a dig when the ifab laws are applied correctly. This is the football he wanted and given how brilliant City are it’ll probably work out for them in the long run. But given his pro-VAR feelings he has come across as bit of a twat tonight.
