Match Thread | Cheltenham vs Man City (23/101/21)

[knuckles]

well, we've had enough chances to be winning easily, Jesus looks like a fish out of water, not gonna comment on mahrez, torres and foden not in the game enough, the bright light for me is Doyle, he's played well

Wank this. Struggling against fucking Cheltenham. Seems the worse the opponent the worse we play.

Is that why we couldn't beat the rags or dippers?

 

[Semper aggressus]

Fucking embarrassing that. On national tv too, more ammunition for rags and scouse twats to take the piss.

We should be fucking destroying teams of journeymen like these. Unacceptable performance so far.

 

[wattle]

Doyle would make a superb pep right back

I think we are holding out for a draw, to get them back to the Etihad.


Does this have to be decided today.

 

[Blue Til Death]

That was utter shite, City need to step it up, they have let Cheltenham dictate the pace and tempo, too many players standing about with their fingers up their arse ... I’m more nervous here than I’ve been for weeks ...!

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Dont understand the game plan. Pass at snails pace at the back and then just hit a long ball to the wings. Started the game as if it was already won.

 

[hertsblue]

Shocking so far. Too many cheap free kicks given away, midfield has vanished with no creativity and the usual vanishing act up front with our striker thinking he is a left midfielder and our shots more or less pass backs straight at the keeper.
shock is certainly on the cards as they look much more dangerous than us

 

[Bluemoon115]

so we get 6 minutes stoppage ...game stopped for 6 minutes yet no additional time for the first half

Did you want more of *gestures vaguely* that...?

Yes.

This is why these cup games with premier league reserve sides are boring most of the time.

 

[ojeme]

Mahrez our biggest threat at the min, he’s picked his game up

Against who again please?

 

[RandomJ]

Get Foden out wide second half.

 

[oakiecokie]

All you wankers who were giving Garcia a hard time prior to KO should be fucking embarrassed .. the lad has been magnificent in that half !!!!

Behave

 

[chaddblue]

Well that was a bit shit

 

[PrestwichBlue2]

Murphy rambling like some drunken uncle at a Boxing day party.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Poor, very poor but not surprising given the lineup. Much preferred our approach in the previous round of starting strong and making changes when well in front.

We have done the kids zero favours. It’s hard enough coming into the side, when surrounded by other regular players. Coming in alongside a bunch of out-of-form players, or squad players makes it even harder.

With that in mind, THB is absolutely pointless at RB and I feel for the lad.

There’s only really been Foden and Mahrez a couple of times who have threatened anything.

Torres and Jesus need one of those fireworks up their arse.

its not exactly a reserve line up. Plenty of first team players are playing. We only have two ‘kids’ playing as wel

 

[mat]

Proper old fashioned cup tie this.

Big boys being shown they can't have it their own way.

I'm shitting it if we go to Penalties mind...

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

fairly turgid performance. Get Bernie and Gundogan on to inject some better midfield control and energy.
