Match Thread | Atalanta vs Man City (06/11/19)

[blue aura]

Atalanta look like a pub team. Expecting three second half goals.

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Penalties...anyone have a fucking clue?!

192 sq ft to choose from, and the keeper can cover about 18 sq ft MAXIMUM!

Do we have ANY player who can consistently find the other 174 sq ft???

Pick a side.

If you are going to pass it in, then you have to either fool the keeper or put it out of reach.

If you are going to leather it, make certain that anything less than a solid block by the keeper is going in.

It’s not rocket science, but FOR ME all this stutter stepping and run up bullshit simply detracts from the focus of a clean stride, clean hit....GOAL!

Kev missed a really poor one a few years back and Kun also missed one. One of Peps biggest failings is not to sort out a good penalty taker.

yep, he missed that one and never took it again

We'll batter them early doors,been taking it too easy

I thought we were superb kaz. There are a very decent team and we’ve made them look very poor

 

[west didsblue]

Got to be the worst penalty I’ve ever seen!

 

[somethingelse]

first one maybe it started outside but hes still got hold of him in the penalty area ,so its a penalty,he has to let go outside the box and he didnt
pool would have enough material to keep them moaning for a month for that

Not a gundog fan then lol ;)

Hes ok. Was just getting into the swing of the matchday thread.

 

[Saddleworth2]

good first half performance. They are clinging on but will tire in the second half like they did at ours. 3-0 final score. C'mon you beautiful blue boys.

 

[Gray]

Gundogan should be taking pens when hes on the pitch. One of the few things hes good at.

Personally I would let Eddie have a go, a real cool customer.

Nips in to have a look..

See the match day thread is still full of loons ;-)

Quietly leaves

Same here, I don't know why I bother to drop in on the matchday thread. It's like a car crash you know that it's not going to be pleasant to look at, but you look.
