Didn’t realise Villa haven’t lost a game at home after they scored first.

Haven't dropped a point.

 

[kaz7]

We are literally playing shite

 

[Cornish_Blue]

Every team we play now knows what to do. Let us have the ball, knowing we will go side to side but not forward. Giving them time to get set up.

 

[teddykgb]

Just slightly over hit that cross Riyad

 

[Barcon]

What a load of flanges. We'll still batter them,

 

[brummie blue]

Do think we’re better with cancelo at rb

earlier in the season yes, more recently Walker is the form full back

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Can see another bullshit performance coming up

 

[kaz7]

What a load of flanges. We'll still batter them,

Ha, love you but you are mad

 

[teddykgb]

What a load of flanges. We'll still batter them,

I trust Foden over 90 minutes

 

[ws01]

What a load of flanges. We'll still batter them,

Like we battered Leeds

Difference is if the Rags went 1 down you’d expect them to still win. Our lack of finishing makes it hard hence why we have a poor record f coming from behind.

 

[dhruvblue]

Everbody doin their best gerrard impression.Slipping and bottling

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Losing at home to the Rags was the big mistake.

Jesus didn’t help us there

Exactly. We’ve no bloody pace. I wish we’d mix things up and go more direct sometimes.

 

[paulchapo]

That goal was the kind you'd see a non league team concede, they didn't even have to work for it.

 

[mccity]

At least we're playing well

 

[Stelea]

Does Jesus ever attack the front post !

 

[Bluemoon115]

Backheeling it in the box instead of shooting.

Christ.

 

[Jag]

We average about 1 shot on target every 30 minutes or so.

Some will hate me for saying it, but in their title winning years you never saw teams like Dippers or ManUre caving in towards the end or in games that really mattered. They always went balls-out EVERY game. We seem to have stepped back lately, and spunked the CL away last year when it mattered and didn't look like we tuned up. Dunno, maybe it's just me, but City do seem to sometimes go weak when you really need them to be strong and give it their all. And you just never saw Dippers or ManUre doing that when it mattered.

Love City and always will. Hate to say anything negative against them. It's only an observation - right or wrong.
