Match Thread | PSG vs Man City (29/09/21)

[Alan Harper's Tash]

It's a great run from him no doubt but it's just a run, there's no physical reason why a player can't track that other than switching off or laziness.

He waited until we were overloaded on the other side and then sprinted to make the overlap.

 

[Mancity1980]

Disappointing result, assuming it stays as it is. But the overall performance wasn't at all bad. PSG were no better than us; poor defending for the first goal, and a top drawer finish for the second.

Plus this is the group stage so no real harm done.

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

I'm not particularly demoralised. We've actually put in a good showing.

I'd agree with that. The front three could all have done more and I'm still a bit concerned about De Bruyne, but overall we've been pretty good. Rodri and Cancelo in particular don't deserve to lose this game

 

[BlueTG]

He’s like this for a few games every time he comes back from injury

Has a lot of injuries though which is a problem.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Pretty frustrating to be clearly the better side and see this scoreline.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Foden has to start against the scousers

 

[kanovic]

City is so frustrating bc you never know which coty will show up. Chelsea we pressed amazing this game we are like meh

 

[Blu1]

It’s not the score that bothers me. It’s the fact pep does not react. We should not be losing this with the chances & possession we have had. Raz, Mahrez & Kev have been shocking all game that’s why we are losing this.

Agreed.

 

[BlueBanger]

again mahrez refusing to utilise the overlap when walker could have slipped the ball across...infuriating.

Not demoralised but this will be one of those frustrating seasons where we play good and can't score and lose the game

 

[mat]

Wonder if these 2 would have creamed themselves if Messi was playing for us

They'd call him the "The £700,000 a week Messi..."

 

[kun]

Splitting feathers. No forward no champions league.

Who was Chelsea’s forward?? Werner?

He’s no more a striker than Sterling, Ferran or Jesus.

 

[bluealf]

You lot as in the collective group of people you simpleton

I've a rag here to dry your eyes if you want it?

 

[HypnoticBlue]

Starting with Sterling & Mahrez made it inevitable. You know when you see the team sheet how the game is gonna pan out, and it’s gonna be a frustrating watch.

 

[qshot989]

I just have to say how many times are we going to lose in this way? Dominating possession but doing nothing with it and not being able to adapt when teams play defensive with the counter attack. We are an amazing attacking side no doubt but Peps tactics are one dimensional. If it isnt working he changes nothing. Over the course of 38 games you can get away with it.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

We’ve given up after the second goal.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Donarumma has put in a shift as well.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Neymar is a fucking shit ****. I don't get the hype about him at all.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Totally schooled one of the worlds best teams here , but for those two worldy finishes
