We should wear the home kit at every match that we can. There's loads of matches that we don't wear it in when we could. It is really a big part of our identity, unlike the common as muck red that many clubs wear.

citymancs / The kit stat no one asked for....

So my hatred of the grey kit led me to a question rattling round my brain; were we shit in grey, and were we shit cause we wore grey... so I did the maths (cause I'm bored).

drum roll please....


This seasons unluckiest kit was the green kit! 

50% win ratio and a GD of -2.
Avg 1.25 goals scored
Avg 1.4 goals conceded

Followed by the black kit.

50% win ratio and a GD of +5
Avg 2.12 goals scored
Avg 1.5 goals conceded

Then the gawd awful grey.

57% win ratio with +7 GD
Avg 1.86 goals scored
Avg 0.85 goals conceded

And by far the luckiest kit, home blue.

75% win ratio and +70 GD.
Avg 2.25 goals scored per game
Avg 0.62 goals conceded

I'm looking forward to not seeing that grey and green monstrosity ever again too

Loved him, great player. Hope he goes on to play well for another team (except against us)

I disagree it was a strong starting line up.

Kovacic and Rodri and Silva in the same line up when 2 of them are still recovering from being injured and not fully fit...  not enough forward movement and all playing behind the ball.

Still, nice to see a mini comeback at the end. Plenty of spirit there

Leaving on a mid high. Seems wrong to be deflated after the cup double (i feel that way too). Just because of the way we surrendered the prem league.

Aside a few odd selections in key games, it's been the best journey ever!

Average of 2 trophies per year over a decade! Who could ask for more! Shame he couldn't break ferries record but hey; the king is dead, Long live the king!

Season is over now. I expect a formal announcement in the coming days. I hope it comes before the final match so we can all give him the send off he deserves.

Pep coming to us was a huge moment in our club's history. His leaving is equally momentous.

Even after a cup double, I'm deflated. 😔
