Match Thread | Man United vs Man City (14/01/23)

How's Malacia not got booked.

Because he’s in red, Rodri best player, I’d be worried about Foden he’s lost something can’t pass not getting in any positions, Jack would be better

 

[citymad]

Ohil going trough

So it's not just Cancelo, looks like the whole team have lost confidence in Foden. If I was him I'd be bollocking the others for not passing to him.

mind you Phil is a shadow of himself. The whole team is struggling.

 

[madloaf]

How many more times are we going to give the ball away, thso is getting ridiculous

Its always when we want to attack, like the players are confused.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Rashford bullshitting again, bent cnut.

 

[hertsblue]

Other than Rodri our mid/front six have not turned up today.

More again than today

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Jack off the bench to win it

If that's what it takes...any volunteers to go first?

 

[FantasyIreland]

Wish Mahrez would back himself and try his luck once in a while.

He's either very good,or normally a bit wank.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

All our top players have fallen off a cliff at the same time bar Rodri, worrying!

 

[dhruvblue]

PR merchant back on pitch. He will be down again to break the play

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

This is dogshit. They are scared to play. Endless sideways passing, then when we actually go forward we are giving it away with sloppy passes & unforced errors.

The rags are there for the taking if we show a bit more desire going forward.

 

[Blu1]

Why is walker coming inside leaving huge gaps down for rashford

 

[forlorn hope]

We break forward then slow down and wait for them to get back... frustrating.

It's like watching England.....

 

[SidJames]

Pep setting us up to be more concerned with their strengths than playing to ours.

It is cringe when he blows smoke up the Rags arses.

calling them Title challengers etc.

The Lads probably went out thinking they are playing peak Brazil today.

 

[TB369]

It feels like we have completely changed the way we started the season playing. It feels like Pep is trying to overcomplicate things and the players have forgot the basics that made the side a great team.

 

[Cambijao]

Utd are shit. We are totally dominating yet still keep giving it away. Not seen one pass to haaland yet is insane

Man United shit? They've completely cut off the passes to Haaland and actually created the most dangerous chances IMO. Fred has done a great job of man-marking KDB.

 

[Blue warrior]

Rodri a shining light for us

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

Wasn't expecting this kind of game at all. Not one bit. Thought one of the teams would be up for it. Very surprised to see that we're both pretty shite.

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Missing a spark - again - and can't see where one's coming from.
We lack the ability to break the lines at speed currently very pedestrian

 

[Bigga]

In my setup, I had Foden not on the pitch nor Cancelo.

You can't play out of bad form, you need a break and reset.

Bernie is wasted burning up energy in the DM, not picking out players like Gundo does.

Bern should be further up doing his damage.

 

[I'm Blue]

Close game.
Which I'm taking as a positive considering how we've played this season.
