Post Match: City vs United Friendly | ICC

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Rumbleows cup, europa league, now the international champions cup, does Jose know how to rotate a team and rest players. Full strength team. Petrified of losing. They're gonna be blowin out their arses come January.

Nice to hear so many glowing reports on Foden. And pep seems to love him.

And he clearly sets more store about beating Pep than gouging out another eye!

Were we naff going forward then?

Lacked the incisiveness without Silva. Still think we need to buy Sanchez to be real contenders.

So United have reverted to long ball tactics, hope Pep knows how to combat this!

what do you mean, 'reverted'? Played it all last season.

 

[come-on-barney]

Slow, ponderous, Utd quick to get back in defensive shape...the usual!

Get back in defensive shape they had 9 men behind the ball most of the game. They are effective but they are absolutely awful to watch.

 

[come-on-barney]

If Foden had been in a rag shirt tonight - perish the thought! - he'd be in the next England squad.

True statement that!

We've three weeks to sort our shit out.

Always going to be tough, this was their third game and our first.

However they were miles better than us, and I fear we've replaced a clown in the nets with another more expensive clown!!!

I'm sure if you bent over backwards you could stick your head up your arse.

Wow.

I just don't get City's senior management.
Why do they arrange our first friendly with them, knowing full well they will be had 2 friendlies before hand and a week before that in training for non-internationals?
Our senior execs will only be City when they realise that losing to them is a big no no.

Probably already covered, but on Edersons mistake, on a PL pitch pretty sure he get's that, the ball held up on the bounce rather than coming through. Still a misjudgement but a tad unlucky.

It truly staggers me that people like you exist.
