jep, pointless to have 2 wingers just holding the ball on the wing and noone overlapping

Or having walker overlapping

What kind of run is Haaland on at the minute for City? 2 goals in his last 10 games? Clearly getting to him.

It's always going to be a hard slog. They are putting everyone behind the ball and trying to do a smash and grab. We need to move the ball better. A few players a bit off. We will be good enough to carve out a few good chances. If we get the first one then we'll probably score a few.

I know how this must feel, when we played Rotherham yesterday with the same tactics. But the inevitable will happen by around 80 mins, your opponents legs will be gone and Haaland will secure that late win.

 

[Josh_D]

you got to keep counting

Well played :)

Bernardo been pretty meh as well so far...

 

[malg]

Come on grealish , step up ffs

The way he's playing today he's struggle to get a start on Hough End.

 

[MarsLlama]

OK DOKU on at HT for Jack or Bernardo?

Jack of course, taking Bernardo off leaves us very light in midfield

 

[DMA's]

Dunno if just me but don’t find haaland that likeable

 

[Norbert D]

Hinchcliffe is a dickhead

 

[argyle]

Stating the obvious but we badly miss KDB.

Seems to be the only one who can regularly find Haaland.

Foden only other who can

 

[wolviedinho]

That’s a rugby tackle on Haaland

 

[Coljj]

When is Doku time?

65 mins

 

[B\connellblue]

Grealish needs to add more strings to his bow, needs to be more aggressive by actually taking his player on instead of feigning.

He's totally ineffective and has been for quite a while.

 

[KingGeorge]

Robinson tackling Haaland

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Left wing is dead

 

[super_city_si]

Clear penalty. Var had a look ffs

 

[Dax777]

Everything slows down when it gets to Grealish

 

[TinFoilHat]

Nice rugby league tackle on Erling

I can't believe we're struggling against Sheffield United...

Why? They’re a PL team and every game is different.

Over the years under Pep we’ve struggled and dropped points in individual games against Palace, Southampton, Leicester, Burnley, Everton, Wolves, Brentford, we’ve lost to League 1 Wigan in the FA Cup…
