United (H) Post Match Thread

Yep my feelings too. Delphi has been great but I think Mendy will have an even greater influence than Walker has

As has Zinchenko. I was a little disappointed not to see him on the bench today. Can't be far off.
 
This is getting a joke. You can't say nothing against St. Pep. He fucked it up at Liverpool and he again fucked up today by not bringing KDB on earlier
to bolster the midfield. Having said that he's God in my eyes but even Jesus fucked up.

Not a fan of him as a LB unless it’s foder... that said he’s very capable on the ball and looks dangerous in his preferred position (as in when he drifts in).

I just want Mendy back.. as he’s a weapon honing forward.

We seem to have about twenty shots a game - like we did today. I'd love to know what our goals to shots ratio is compared to the ratio of goals to shots against us. I've no scientific evidence to support this but it really feels like any opponent (and I mean any opponent) will score from two or three attempts against us. When was the last time another team took us apart and we ended up with a clean sheet or even nicked a winner ?

I will answer my own question. The last time we were in that position in a domestic competition was August 2010 when Joe almost single handedly earned us a 0 - 0 draw at Spurs - saves from close range shots, long range shots, smothering the strikers and catching every cross.

Mendy will be like a new signing - how many games has he played for us ?

Gutted.

A once in a lifetime opportunity, comparable with the 1-6, and the Sergio's last minute title winner. 2-0 up at half-time. Absolutely battered United. Then once again like Liverpool, X's 2, we fall apart from 20 minutes, and United score 3. Did anyone see that coming?

Obviously Pep and our owners want the CL, but for every City fan to a Man, winning the title against United was just as important. So rather than f*** about with the team because of Tuesday, if Pep had played the first team in the first half, we'd have absolutely murdered United by more than 2 goals, then Pep could have taken the players off in the 2nd half, he ended up bringing on in the end.

Sometimes I don't understand Pep.

If we don't score 4 on Tuesday, and we're knocked out, today will would have been all for nothing.

One more point. Pep asked the fans to support the team. That was one of the best, if not the best atmospheres in the 1st half I've heard at the Etihad. Then the players amble out and switch off at the start of the 2nd half. What more could we have done? It just shows, even if you support the team, it still doesn't guarantee a win.

if we had started Jesus we could easily have played him the entire game and the CL would be over. No way we overturn a 3-0 without a forward

We had no choice. We are 13 points ahead in the league so of course we prioritise the Champions League. If we had to choose between the two competitions I'd go Premier League, but the league hasn't gone today. Had we started Jesus, then the Champions League may have become even more unlikely.

Good for you.


If you don’t think I’m a city fan I personally couldn’t give a monkeys... I know how I feel now and I know how I’ll feel in the morning.... low.

If we took our chances we would have won today. Cant see how Pep can be blamed. I would have liked him to lay into the crap officiating post match interview though. we are too soft on that. Klopp, Mourinho and Pocahontas at Spurs are constantly whining and getting into the ears of officials

He said he hasn't seen it! If my aunt had a pair of bollocks she'd be my uncle. Stop stating the obvious and give me something substantial.

Pep hasn’t fucked anything up but the players have.

Pep shouldn't get a pass for tinkering before the Liverpool game, firing up Pogba before the derby, dropping some of our best players for a title winning derby game and waiting until we were losing before making any changes.

Explain? They'll probably give him a bonus.

In the 80s I worked with a top level lino - pre-Prem. By day a junior civil servant, and paid expenses to run the line - unlike the salaried officials of today. We were always on at him about the 'Assessor in the stand'. He was adamant that officials used to get a truly hard time by the Assessors - taken to task via a video run-through of decisions they got wrong. These days assessments of officials aren't so immediate and are less harsh. The amateurs from the past delivered better performances than the current shower of you know what officials.
