Man City (A) 22/1: Build-Up & Match Thread

[jdrodrigues]

Right foot is just fractionally offside there.

Well caught there, but that was risky af.

 

[Jinky]

Get Dawson in this defence ASAP. We are absolutely appalling defensively.

 

[The Bear]

Lol Podence's first touch is an attempted flick which he misses.

 

[jdrodrigues]

Really well done by Podence

 

[Charlie Wolf]

Bigger games for us than this to come.

…and the PL can have their big 6 love in, sadly it’ll bite British football on the arse as people continue to be disillusioned by the corrupt incompetence of referees

 

[The Bear]

Decent break and good effort.

 

[Banjo]

Get Dawson in this defence ASAP. We are absolutely appalling defensively.

I'm not sure how confident I'll be about Dawson with the ball at his feet either.

 

[The Bear]

Pod-Cunha-Sarabia has to be the front three going forwards. Raul supporting them.

 

[The Bear]

I like that Sarabia is constantly coming into the centre of the box for balls coming in. Something we haven't had many wide players do very often for us.

 

[Jinky]

Julen just needs to play the best team, moving forward. We’d lost the game before a ball had been kicked today by leaving all our most talented attacking players out of the starting 11.

 

[jdrodrigues]

How tf is this corner given?

 

[The Bear]

That annoys me. Lino should have flagged for offside but doesn't so they get a corner out of it. Shocking.

 

[Banjo]

Nunes is deceptively quick isn't he.

(Slim pickings)

 

[Sam-Wolf]

That's inexcusable from Sa. Bin him off and play Sarkic from now on, he can't do any worse.

Have you seen Sarkic? Deer in headlights whenever the ball is at his feet.

It was awful from Sa though.

 

[b3h]

Nunes is deceptively quick isn't he.

(Slim pickings)

Yeah. I feel like Cunha is as well

looks like we need a new keeper this window.

 

[jd1981]

City have missed some big chances

 

[lupollet2]

in all honesty, it’s been a pretty depressing afternoon, but i’m pretty happy with the new signings - it’ll be nice to see us play against some normal teams.

 

[jdrodrigues]

Result aside, we have shown good things here moving forward. If it wasn't two appalling decisions in the back, the result would be fairly okay.

I'm hopeful at what we can achieve in the rest of the league.
