146 - Elliot Anderson completed 146 passes for Manchester City against Coventry, the most by an English midfielder in a Premier League game on record since 2003-04.
Sublime.
Elliot Anderson has become the first midfielder to attempt 150+ passes in a single Premier League game while keeping a pass accuracy of 92% or higher... since Rodri vs Sheffield United in December 2023. 🤝
No #ManCity player had more touches (176), made more final third entries (21), won more fouls (3), or made more interceptions (2) than Anderson vs Coventry. 🔝

🚨 Alan Shearer on Erling Haaland reaching 300 club goals:
🗣️ Shearer: “I sometimes listen to the conversations around Haaland and think we’ve completely lost our minds.
People will tell you he only had this many touches, he didn’t create enough chances, he needs to be more involved in the build-up. Okay. Then somebody crosses the ball into the penalty area and there’s a defender practically hanging off him, and somehow Haaland is still the one heading it into the net.
That’s his job.
I watched the goal today and I’m not even sure Semenyo has to look up and think, ‘I need to put this exactly on Erling’s head.’ With some strikers you have to find them. With Haaland, put a good ball into the area and he’ll try to find you.
That sounds simple until you remember every defender knows exactly what he’s trying to do.
They know he wants to get across them. They know he wants the space between centre back and goalkeeper. They know if the ball goes into that area he’s probably attacking it.
And he still gets there.
That’s what 300 goals tells you.
There was another moment today where he gets contact in the box and could probably make much more of it. He stays up and carries on trying to get to the ball.
I like that about him. His first thought always seems to be, ‘Can I still score?’ Not, ‘Can I get a penalty here?’
People can debate whether he’s the most complete striker, whether he should touch the ball more, whether he should create more. Those are fair conversations.
But he’s now scored against 24 of the 25 Premier League teams he’s faced. The only one left is Sunderland, and unfortunately for Sunderland, he plays them in two weeks.
At some point you stop asking what else a goalscorer should be doing and appreciate that you’re watching somebody who has made scoring goals look far more normal than it actually is.”
Your City side to face Coventry 🩵

Trump: “We could do tremendous good for ourselves by just not trading with countries.
We lose $200 billion dollars a year with the European Union. If I didn't trade with them, we would lose nothing.”
Dumbest. President. Ever.
This deviant, sadistic, fake fucking “Christian” bitch was complicit with the Trump/Epstein/MAGA pedophile cult from the get go. She ain’t fooling anyone with her phony crocodile tears and manufactured “mourning.”
