I thought it was a case of 'just desserts'! Another premier team that has little attacking ambition and rely on a Kyle backheel and what the ref can conjure up. On another day the awful finishing morphs into goals.

I did think there was shades of Brentford when the Blades equalised. But they got exactly what they deserved. Sweet fanny fuckin' FArce all!

Some goal from Rodri.

Yep - we were so under par we made them look like a half decent outfit. Jeeeez.

 

[Barcon]

I can picture some on here arguing that it should in fact not have been ten.

 

[decmancity]

3pts job done. Won't get myself too wound up with anything else.

 

[OntarioBlue]

Utter domination, just have to put those chances away.

Walker wont make that backheel pass ever again lol.

Without Pep we did struggle a little bit kn those last 10 mins when the opposition switches from full defense to full attack, our players serm surprised by it and it took them a while, maybe only last few mins to remember to just pass backwards and bait their press as if they are a top team.

Walker is always prone to a bone headed moment or two. You just have to hope they don’t cause too much damage.

 

[Eccles Blue]

These cunts will soon cheer if he scores for England over the break.

Or they’ll be very sorry when he can’t play because he’s been kicked and fouled so much that he’s got an injury and can’t play! That would show the jealous bullies!

In fact if I were Jack or Pep I’d pull him out on those grounds. Sorry!! (Not sorry) ;-)

 

[makinghistory]

Are you sure you’re not on the Everton forum by mistake ?

I rarely criticise but that was awful. Made them look like a half decent team.

 

[mancityscot]

We’re not really keen on subs are we

 

[baggy]

Three games in, nine points and only one goal conceded.

Be afraid, rest of the league, we haven’t even got out of third gear yet.

Or 1st

 

[OB1]

Rodri is easily the best player in the world at present, by the way.

He's right up there.

 

[nellyonthewing]

Kev out is a huge miss.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Thank you City for another 3points.
Onwards we go - love this Club.

 

[Gobshiight]

Not for me. Those additional chances don't occur if one is taken

Bizarre way of looking at things, but fair enough!

 

[oakiecokie]

Whoever takes their place (assuming they go down) will be no different in their approach when we play them.

But thankfully Burnley didn`t. ;)

 

[OB1]

Posted in the match day but we wear teams down and then when they sun in fresh legs we leave everyone on. Makes no sense

Well, we won, so made it does make some sense.

I confess I wanted Doku and Phil on after about an hour but I get why Pep often does not make changes.

 

[SebastianBlue]

TAA was very close to getting a straight red on that, as well.

 

[Gogootz]

3/3 we come out the traps quickly and it's all about getting points on the board at this stage.

I'm hoping a couple teams are seeing us 2 clear already and maybe losing a bit of appetite for it.

 

[OB1]

Twice Grealish took players on on the outside.
A penalty and Haalands goal the result.
He really needs to mix it up more.
When he is in full flight he can be so dangerous.
Cannot understand why he comes in so often

He needs to trust his left foot more when it comes to crossing the ball: he can do more than stand on it.

 

[Doctor Jimmy and Mr Jim]

Agree but do we know why he didn't start?

Phil had a stomach bug and wasn't fully fit for 90 mins

 

[mosssideblue]

Bizarre way of looking at things, but fair enough!

Nothing bizzare about it, it's true

 

[N1985]

All about getting the points on the board in August and September and hit stride in October. People forgetting we've got key injuries all over the place.
