Match Thread | Shakhtar Donetsk vs Manchester City (06/12/17)

[Mancity1980]

To say we have not shown enough respect to the opposition is an understatement. I still think if we put our minds to it we will rescue this game. Looking at pep and the players though their minds look elsewhere.

Take yaya off drop Gundogan in front of back 4 put Foden in yaya roll, bring someone on at left back.

Isn't Bernardo meant to be good?

He seems like he is still finding his place. Ultimately, I think he will fill a role like DS, but with David still kind of running the show, it might take a season to get BS in the right headspace.

Isn't it just.

Sane has also been getting away with murder in recent weeks - very loose in possession.

Thing is though, it's not just Yaya. The love-in on here for Gundogan is bewildering.

He’s not to be honest, Francis and Latibeaudiere are much better prospects but they’re only 18 and 17

I’d play them ahead of him.

He clearly won’t make it for us so why not try and improve a 17/18 year old even if they’re not as athletically developed just yet?

 

[argyle]

It's a nothing game but I've been very dissapointed with Bernardo.

Hasn't done anything.

 

[hateutd]

I just don't like this feckin Luton Town.... :)

 

[samski]

A new centre mid and centre back are in need for January, Yaya's legs have gone and Adarabioyo and Mangala don't look good enough. A left back wouldn't go amiss either.

Where did that corner come from and how did Sane screw it up that much?
