Match Thread | Burnley vs Man City (03/02/21)

Sterling is looking more and more out of place in this side by the game. His touch is seriously woeful.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Sterling yet again

 

[ctwrd]

Initially it didn't look like it was but when they did the freeze frame it looked like the Burnley players knee was in front of any part of Mahrez's body that could be considered offside. So it actually was very tight.

About as tight as Katie price’s...

 

[mccity]

That's it, lower the average height of the team even more.

Taking the mickey.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Genuinely think Sterling must be one of the best in world football at getting in positions to create chances for himself but is very poor at finishing them.

Which means he still scores loads but could score a lot more.

Think he just need to accept this is him.

2nd most goal involvements in the squad this season.

Not bad!

It's exactly this. He's one of the smartest players in English football, his movement and reading of the game is world class, but I do think that means he overthinks things. This is who he is.

Gundo should have shot himself. No need for another pass.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Yessss!!! Cancelo is fit for Liverpool :) The key player goes off to be wrapped in cotton wool.

 

[kaz7]

Zinchy for joao

 

[hertsblue]

The attack is seriously letting us down

It’s just not a threading front 3, no where near clinical enough

 

[dubblue]

Regardless of if he was on or off VAR is an abomination and should be dumped in the bin where it belongs.

 

[remember arthur mann]

£2 million man now on.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

FFS Sterling.

I think he’s taking over the mantle.

 

[Dax777]

Cancelo????

 

[@BluePhil8]

The revelation of Cancelo and Zinchenko becoming world class false midfield fullbacks is literally the ultimate Pep meme but something I think no one in world football saw coming.

 

[Blu1]

Raz come on lad cut these mad decisions

 

[ctwrd]

Sterling out
Messi in

 

[Grassland Blue]

If it's that tight the attacking team should get the benefit of the doubt.

NOT clear and obvious.
Same with Soton last night.

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Why is the commentator reading the Liverpool team out?

 

[bluealf]

Get to specsavers.

I like the argument that it should be naked eye not lines but naked eye first viewing it looked off. Only when lines drawn did it look close and even then off by a good way (at least a foot)

I was looking off their lines that they drew the one down from the floor to his knee looked like his knee was keeping him on.

I don't require Specsavers but thanks for the suggestion.

 

[Bluearmy]

He looked onside to me with the Burnley players knee keeping him on?

Yet another flag straight up from the linesman, despite clear instructions to keep it down unless clearly offside. Its every time with us!!
