Football photos that take your breath away. Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw posted this photo of herself with Ronaldo Nazรกrio on Instagram, along with other pictures from the 2026 Ballon d'Or ceremony, where she placed third in the selection for the Women's Ballon d'Or.

Other teams will look at how far Manchester United were able to take their aggressiveness against Bunny yesterday and think they can get away with it too. City's players and their supporters need to make opponents feel uncomfortable. The ref needs to feel uncomfortable when she is not doing her job.

After seeing the tackles and off-the-ball fouls and knocks Bunny Shaw was subjected to in the derby, I would love to see Manchester City Women's players being louder, and standing up for each other more aggressively. I'd like to see some shithousery on the City side.

I've been saying this for years. Whenever players target her, Bunny gets no protection from the refs. Kudos to her for being calm about it on most occasions. But yesterday's derby was out of control and she was rightly upset about it. Shocking officiating from the imposter in the referee uniform.

Bunny locking eyes with the ref. Bunny edging right up into her personal space. Bunny listening without saying a word and then giving her a look of contempt as she jogs off. I'm watching this on repeat and loving it more each time ๐Ÿ˜…

A derby goal on her 100th appearance for Manchester City. The first player to score in each of her first six WSL starts of the season. 91 WSL goals in 100 WSL appearances. One Bunny Shaw.

Manchester City Women were not at their best. The game may be seen as United rescuing a point, but I thought United had the better of the chances and squandered a few. It could have gone their way. Unfortunately, the ref's poor performance also did City no favours on a below-par day for the Blues.

Wouldn't it be funny if City gets fined a massive amount of money for 115, and the sheikh secretly pays it out of his own pocket, and we get in trouble all over again. And then Gary Neville says, "I just can't with them anymore," throws up his hands, and quits his job as a pundit.

What a strange game. It went from "we've got this" at 3-0 up, to a kind of "we will find a way" situation as we struggled to put the game to bed at 3-2 up. Anyway, I will take the win and the Bunny brace. On to the next one.

It was the great Bob Dylan who sang, "The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, the answer is blowin' in the wind."

If owners pulled their funding it would leave over a quarter of clubs in the top five English divisions insolvent within a month. So tell me, how are those Profit & Sustainability Rules working out for you? And if those rules aren't making football clubs sustainable, what or WHO are they there for?

Not happy with the result against PSG, but really pleased with how we fought back in the second half. We had a lot of chances to score that we didn't put away, but there are positives to take from that because creating those opportunities against this PSG side is not easy. On to the next one, Citeh.

CITY FANS: (minding our own business) RIVAL FANS: "U know what you are U know what you are Cheating bastards U know what you are" CITY FANS: "We know what we are We know what we are We're cheating bastards We know what we are!" RIVAL FANS: "Oh my God, you're shameless!" Cracks me up every time.

I see people out there saying Manchester City fans are shameless for celebrating their club's win at Anfield today and that we are ruining football. As long as there are fans who love their club through thick and thin, and still find joy in the hardest of times, football is alive and well.

The commentators are barely talking about the game and the atmosphere now. We're back to the charges. Now they're saying that it's unfortunately our players and fans who have to suffer through this. But all week they've been relishing the idea of humiliating our players and fans today. Clowns.

We're better than these jokers but all the nonsense is having a negative effect on our game. That's to be expected. So I'm not going to knock our players for that. Just hoping they can get over it for the second half and take the game to these clowns.

The way I see it the pressure is on Liverpool. Imagine their fans and the entire world wanting them to beat us. If they do, that's OK, they had the whole planet behind them. But if they bottle it under the burden of expectation, I will be laughing at the useless cnuts.

According to Sofascore, Bunny Shaw's ball-carrying against Mexico was a constant outlet for the Reggae Girlz, "with 11 ball carries and 104.1 metres of progressive distance, including a best single carry of 36.1 metres."

The Reggae Girlz opened the scoring against Mexico with this goal from Jody Brown. Look at the work from Bunny Shaw, collecting the ball in her own half and carrying it into the final third before passing it to Paige Bailey-Gayle, who delivers it to Jody for the tap-in.

Manchester City Women came from a goal down twice to win this game. We find a way. Bunny Shaw had a bad game. We still won. Because we are not a one-woman team. Andree Jeglertz changed another game with his substitutions. The Lauren Hemp masterclass continues. We don't listen to the noise.

A decent first half of football between Manchester City Women and Arsenal. Arsenal have pressed better than us and looked more dangerous. But here we are at half-time and it is even-stevens at 1-1. Because we find a way. May we continue to find a way in the second half.

Gareth Taylor took that style of play to Liverpool, so Khiara won't be unlearning any of it any time soon. It's a stress the fans of teams like City and Liverpool just have to learn to live with. But you never learn to control the panic when your goalkeeper has the ball at her feet under pressure.

Khiara Keating is a talented goalkeeper but mistakes like the one in the first half that led to United's goal are holding her back. It's not her fault. She was indoctrinated to play those risky passes when she was at City. Yamashita, at City, takes the same risks but gets away with them more.

Sing it to the tune of 'Kumbaya, My Lord.' Raise your hands like you're in church, City fans ๐Ÿ˜‰. And surrender it all to him, my brothers and sisters: One one five, my lord, One one five. One one five, my lord, One one five. One one five, my lord, One one five. Oh lord, one one five.
