Match Thread | Arsenal vs Man City FA Cup (18/07/20)

[Tricky_Trev]

How many times does Laporte want to kick it out of play?

 

[Mattyc55]

We’re simply a better team with foden in it.

How he’s not playing is beyond me.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Worst we've played this season.
Gundogan is woeful. Marhez too. Everyone else meh

 

[argyle]

Rocket up the backside time.

Not sure there will be. Pep rarely changes anything at half time.

 

[Goater=Legend]

This wasn't the game for Silva, he can't play 3 games in a row.

They need a rocket up there, what's the point in making the cups the priority if this is the performance

 

[Blue and still suffering]

Playing too slow. Passing is shit. No movement.

But apart from that we are doing ok

 

[kaz7]

Well that was shit,sussed out

 

[mancityvstoke]

fucking shyte first half

 

[wolviedinho]

Only half time. Can’t expect them to play great all the time. Arsenal have been decent. Plenty of time to turn it around. Only need 1.

 

[Beanhead]

Let’s be clear, this is a poor city performance, not an Arsenal masterclass.

Disagree they are set up very well to nullify us and it’s working. Most of our players are well off their usual standards but part of that will be the man marking and disciplined shape they are trying to break down.

 

[Hydemcfc]

Far too slow.

 

[blueballs84]

They just don't look arsed.
No intensity at all.
Pep needs to crack some skulls.

 

[BoundedCascade]

Absolutely woeful performance so far. Gundogan and Silva midfield has proven time and again that it doesnt work. Why even make the attempt?

 

[mccity]

Ederson aside the players have been disappointing. Arteta's done a decent job isolating our midfielders from each other.

Still, I have hope!

 

[welsh_andy]

meanwhile the lad who has any passion sits on the bench

and has bucketfuls of pace

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

The passing has been woeful through the whole team.

 

[come-on-barney]

Pep, needs to change it at half time

 

[ShaunMCFC]

Aubamayang would score a boatload for us . This is the reason why pep is going to rebuild the his team.

I don't think he's all that, everytime I watch him he seems to miss more than he bags. I might be completely wrong, be interesting to see his stats

 

[urban genie]

 

[plattlanebenches]

Poor passing
Terrible decision making
Too slow tempo
