Match Thread | Man City vs Leicester (27/09/20)

Just a gentle reminder........

WE WERE UTTERLY FUCKING SHITE JUST 15 YEARS AGO COMPARED TO THIS TEAM.

Dry your fucking eyes and stop whining.

Yes, but the team didn't cost millions.......

 

[Tricky_Trev]

People saying “the title is over” seem to have this idea that we were ever in with a shot. We are, and always were, in the scramble for top 4.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Torres on yet?

 

[SiMCFC]

It's very early on in the season to say it but... We haven't learnt anything from last season have we? I honestly think we need Pep to confirm he is leaving at the end of the season and hope that motivates a few of the players a bit.

 

[domalino]

We are making better chances with Delap on but they do need to go in... delap and sterling with 2 good chances not taken so far.

Its an odd game because we'vd just been undone by 2 very stupid unnecessary fouls and 1 world class finish from a half chance.

 

[ID70]

Unless you change the way you play, slightly. Vardy can’t be a surprise to him ffs.

You’d think so which makes it even more glaring that he changed his formation for the CL QF to counter the opposition

 

[Blu3m00n91]

The 17/18,18/19 team is absolutely unrecognisable. I can’t even believe this is the same club

 

[David Silva]

Oh come off it, its not just the players being out. Its the system again. If we keep buying players and then they look shit in said system it cant always be them

Do go ahead and explain how we should have set up today with the options we have?

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

12 months mate, Same issues, 12 months, and we wanted Messi, FFS

Messi doesn't guarantee anything in this league, best current player in the world or not!

Anyone with half a brain can see we have key players out and not upto speed. Christmas will give us a good indication at where we're at. Not judging us on this game!

 

[super_city_si]

Fuck me, thankfully Bluemoon match thread didn't exist 30 years ago, not over yet cmon City

Oh yes it is.

 

[ColinBellsjockstrap]

What centre half wears a fukin helmet might as well have Chubby Brown playing

lol!

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Jesus gets boring being told how shit we use to be, stop living in the past.

Exactly, we know and witnessed us being shite all those years ago. Expectations have changed....it is 2020 after all

 

[damrider]

ferran has been on the pitch for 5 minutes and has managed to do everything he tried to do wrong so far

Dry your fucking eyes and stop whining.

That was then, this is now, I wish people would stop harping on to the past, most of us were there. On a shit budget we got shit, we expected it.

 

[TheRemainsOfTheDave]

We're a bit shit now, aren't we.

 

[Keeper!]

No defence, no midfield, we expect a kid of 20 to take the place of the club's greatest player, and what did our manager do, try and sign a 33 yr old on a million a week, laughable

 

[TheThirdDeano]

last season was the same. How many times can we use that as an excuse.

As often as it's relevent?
If our best players have been injured in both seasons (Which they absolutely have, for large portions) then it's a perfectly valid excuse? Sounds like you're just too busy pissing your pants to see any logic

 

[Summerbuzz]

I think the mixture of injuries and bedding in new signings and lack of match sharpness is affecting us here. I'm not too worried as I think form is the issue and chemistry.

I'd go along with that. Plus we've clearly played and managed ourselves into a corner this match. There are obvious lessons to be learned going forward, and that's better done now.

 

[kun]

Leicester falling down at every opportunity. They have sniffed out a pushover of a ref.

 

[cookster]

Are we really surprised????

Come off it, glaring weaknesses in the team and all efforts clouded by the messi debacle....

Summed up perfectly.
