Has gabby touched it yet

 

[MeatHunterrr]

At least we're playing well

No we are not. Passing the ball for the sake of it is not playing well

 

[Dr Jacoby]

I can’t even blame Sterling. Boo

 

[heslops barnet]

League should have been won before tonight

 

[DMA's]

We have nothing off the bench either

 

[The1nvisibleMan]

Is Rodri that thick? Same ball over each time isn’t working so stop it

 

[Cornish_Blue]

There’s ALWAYS 8 in their box when we get in there. We aren’t moving the ball through them, we are just going side to side.

 

[Don Karleone]

Time yet

 

[stan bowles]

Still think Foden's skill and quality are wasted on the wing. I'd play him as a number 10 so he is much more involved in the game.

 

[avoidconfusion]

Are the players trying to send some kind of message?

 

[kun]

Should never have thrown the leeds game , momentum is everything this time of the season

We didn’t throw it ffs. They had 2 shots. 9 times out of 10 City win that game.

 

[Airbags Optional]

We have not been great in the league for about 4 games now. Are we just knackered? Or are we missing a striker

 

[BlueMonkey79]

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.

Obviously didn't watch United in 2012

 

[nellyonthewing]

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

You have to score goals to win games.This could easily be another Leeds now .

 

[James Morgan]

If we lose tonight, I fully expect the rags to put at least 5 past Leeds at the weekend and really out the pressure on the last 5 days.

how have we gone from 22 wins and chasing a quadruple, to playing absolutely garbage?

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

Wtf is wrong with people. Are you this impatient at the match?

 

[ws01]

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

Sounds about right for a team who plays with no proper striker

 

[come-on-barney]

Are the players trying to send some kind of message?

Well they can all do one if they are

 

[yankblue]

wait meeting just ended what the fuck happened

We didn’t throw it ffs. They had 2 shots. 9 times out of 10 City win that game.

We did. There was no need to rest the entire team for Dortmund, absolutely no need.
