Match Thread | Southampton vs Man City (11/01/23)

[Brewster's millions]

Phillips is fucking stealing a living - don’t think he’s made one forward pass or won a tackle all match. He just ambles around at a snail’s pace.

Gomez is arguably the worst player the club has signed in the last decade. Losing Zinchenko and replacing him with Gomez is the sort of trick we would have done when Swales was in charge.

It’s not over till it’s over right? Not great but the final whistle hasn’t been blown so I’m still watching with calmness

Correct. Keep playing like this, and we're toast. But I have to believe we'll improve.

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Have a good night guys we have lost unless Pep makes 5 subs

 

[sh249]

Aside from the horrific passing, it’s striking how much stronger and aggressive they are. We’re being bullied all over the place.

A few senior players need hooking at half time…. Gundo, Cancelo…. Plus Gomez.

What's the point of busting a gut to beat dippers if he can't take the QF seriously
Another trophy thrown under the bus
Utterly baffling

A long way to go yet, but in answer to your question, we all would rather beat Liverpool than Southampton.

 

[Mattyc55]

A lot of players out there out of form and a few who a simply not good enough.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

This whole hyrbid 3 at the back needs throwing in the bin.

Every time we do some weird version of three at the back it gives me the fear.

We've smashed every team on the planet dominating midfield and strangling them to death playing 4-3-3.

No need to piss about with it.

Fuck me it even goes back to Cruyff...

 

[Len Rum]

Quad's gone!

 

[skillman]

Somebody is controlling Gomez with an analog stick, I’m sure of it. Every time he gets it, he’s spun backwards to pass it

 

[Don Karleone]

Seriously, change it Pep

 

[geek24601]

Not really interested in this one tbh. I think we've done it over and over again. For me I would rather have the UCL and the pl this season

No chance we are getting either of those if our inconsistent form continues. Better to play well in every game to build momentum!

 

[Roachy]

I think Phillips is unsure what he is actually meant to be doing.

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Another stupid team selection and another awful performance

We’ve been fucking awful this season numerous times when picking our best teams.

 

[blue moony]

Absolute shit show

Cancelo is an absolute disgrace

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Not the first time we've had to come from 2 behind this season.

Agree but we need to play a lot better than most of our games this season for either the way things are going.

Where is our energy and belief of the last few seasons?

 

[j.cbluelongsight]

We will win this!
Come on City

This whole hyrbid 3 at the back needs throwing in the bin.

We have been playing this system for 6 years FFS.

 

[HaalandEffect]

Lavia better than Phillips?
Phillips should be given the time to summer
