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

[WestGorton]

Phillips can't be singled out after his first start. We lack pace everywhere. We miss Sterling in my opinion.

 

[Chippy_boy]

Palmer needs to aggressively run at people. So tame

He's a major frustration for me. I think he's super talented and could be a great for us. potentially Foden level.

But he's just not doing it. Seems like he's put too much pressure in himself, snatching at things.

 

[minimalistic]

Can't believe I've been looking forward to this game all day.

 

[SidJames]

Gomez ,phillips & Grealish are not good enough to play for Mcfc .
This is the wake up call they need ,the passing has become pedestrian & to slow at times .

Grealish has disappointed since signing.

Will be very surprised if we dont try and recuperate some money on him the end of this season.

 

[Don Karleone]

Garbage

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

I know he's only young but Palmer hasn't really progressed at all since he got his chance last year

He’s skilful but so predictable.
In on his left foot every time. Takes so long that he ends up playing it behind into the centre circle practically.
Just head down go for the line.
He’s been beyond the defender a few times but cuts back every time.

Are they taking the piss??

WTF was that?

 

[union city blue]

Every single player out there should be embarrassed by this. They should be forced to refund the travelling fans out of their bloated fucking wage packets. The cunts.

Pep deep in thought........well,its all of your own doing pal.You have picked a square peg 11 (again) that has no cohesion,rhythm or fight.

Fucking joke,and we can count ourselves fortunate we arent more than 2 down.

Along with the chuckle brothers as his assistants

 

[Ashleymcduff]

Foden dropping another 0/10 ffs

 

[Phoenix900000]

Pathetic, slow and not enjoying the way we play

 

[richards30]

Wow that was SHIT!

 

[Gus Fring]

Well I think that confirms we need a left back and that Rodri is just a bit better than Phillips

Some of the big guns will need minutes before the derby anyway I’d get a few on at half time and then give it 20 to get the rest on. These will blow themselves out hopefully.

 

[oldius]

Poor half but plenty of time to go. Come on, blues.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

We employ a system that gives us all the possession in the world, but makes chance creation difficult...i think we are beginning to see a hangover from playing this tired system for so long.

I miss the more pacey approach of the 2017-2018 period.

and the goals

 

[Lavinda Past]

Bag of shite this performance.

Five subs at HT please.

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Getting done off Southampton for fucks sake. Thought Everton was a one off and these fuckers go one better against this shower of shite. Well done lads!

 

[pudge]

If Laporte passes it backwards to Walker after waiting five minutes on the ball again my boot will go through the TV
