Manchester City (H) 17/9: Build-Up & Match Thread

[The Bear]

Bruno won’t have a clue what to do now.

Start drafting his post match defeat speech.

 

[jd1981]

He’s crap at retrieving deficit against crap teams let alone city

 

[prawnking]

Not sure Jonny marking Haaland is so great

 

[Alan]

At least under Nuno we played endless sideways passes on the halfway line. Now we're doing it in our own fucking 6 yard box.

 

[The Bear]

We're at least getting forward OK when we do get the ball in their half.

If we hadn't conceded immediately we might have looked like we were getting into this game.

 

[Jinky]

Absolutely wank touch from Neto.

 

[Carsy]

Dogshit from Jonny, not sure why he's playing ahead of Semedo.

Poor from Nunes to tbf

 

[Templeton Peck]

Promising move breaks down because Neto is out of position

 

[YoungWolf]

We’ve played some nice stuff at times but we have absolutely no threat in behind. Just allows them to defend so much higher

 

[b3h]

Haha fuck off Rodri

 

[The Bear]

Awful cross from Podence.

 

[Jack Regan]

Final ball is absolute gash as usual.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Being patronised by that gimp Jenas is fun.

 

[Alan]

We’ve played some nice stuff at times but we have absolutely no threat in behind. Just allows them to defend so much higher

Not to mention there've already been about half a dozen times when a better option was available and our attackers just never take it.

 

[b3h]

Rubbish corner, will we ever learn?

 

[Templeton Peck]

So many times we take an unnecessary touch in attacking areas. Top slow.

 

[Jack Regan]

0-2! Ridiculously easy.

 

[Alan]

Midfield of fucking Neves - Nunes - Moutinho and we're still terrified to play through the press.

Game over.

 

[Jinky]

Absolutely painful.

I know what we should do. Just let Haaland turn and run at the defence and have a free shot.

You’ve just had the whole week to plan for this. Fucking shit.

Literally might as well turn it off now. Embarrassing from us.

 

[YoungWolf]

That’s awful defending
