Match Thread | Man City vs West Ham (03/05/23)

[dromoreblue]

Gondog and Phil needed. Midfield bereft of ideas and movement.

 

[Blu1]

Playing Alvarez in midfield over Gundy & foden is a little strange tonight. Put him up with haaland take Mahrez off & foden on

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Pass to grealish or bernardo cross and repeat. Way too slow and predictable. Foden for mahrez

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Unpopular - but Alvarez is the problem in this set up.

I agree.

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Dullest half I've seen for a while. We need an injection of life from somewhere. A close shot or a hard tackle. Get the crowd up!

We are going through the motions.

 

[bert38]

Poor performance-Bernie playing close to Grealish and the pair of them struggling to create. Stones in midfield making us v narrow-mahrez isolated.

Needs some pace and flair-Foden for me.

 

[Goater=Legend]

Dias is the main offender. Other than Mahrez, who is fucking wank.

Yeah hes taking too long to release the ball.

 

[phargrave]

This thread is fucking hilarious

Stick around it gets better….

I’d piss myself (and be delighted) if mahrez scores an early goal 2nd half. Doubt pep will sub him

There’ll be no changes at half time, pep rarely does that

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

It will come.

not into clown porn

It seems he's tonight's scapegoat.

 

[Kippax77]

It is reminding me of the Everton game NYE

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Gundo needs to come on for anybody except Rodri, Grealish, Ortega, Ake and Haaland

 

[wolviedinho]

Mahrez and jack against flat back 11 is not gonna work. Go long from defence to Haaland and Alvarez should have space.

That 45 was the same before the run.

 

[christened at st marks]

Bernie away from the left put RW Mahrez off Phil LW

 

[xgorton]

Still think if Arsenal win all their 5 games they will win the league. We have a draw and defeat in us with our schedule. Pep can keep saying we’re not tired if we think happy thoughts, but the reality is we look spent and nobody is running.

They only have 4 left not 5,FS.

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Shit performance.

Don’t know how Mahrez starts. He’s been woeful for 135 minutes of football.

That Rodri chance shows we’re not scoring in a month of Sundays.

 

[Claytop]

What are people expecting though?

Literally every man behind the ball, makes the games so poor to watch but we’ll likely get a couple in the second half.

 

[give it to gordon]

Why do the pundits think parking the bus is great football ?

 

[aguero93:20]

Underwhelming so far. But there's still another 45 minutes to go. I'm not going to start flapping yet, there's plenty on here who can take up that slack.
