Match Thread | UR Diamonds vs Man City (19/12/23 @ 6pm)

[BossHog]

They've been miserable as fuck since it started

Probably because they are in a studio in Uk rather than 5star trip

 

[hertsblue]

Surely we can get a rare clean sheet this evening

Will get a better idea after they have a shot on target

Don't come on to the match day thread often but some of the comments by so called City fans are fucking embarrassing

Welcome to the matchday thread!

Great to get the goal but let’s not kid ourselves, Urawa are fucking terrible and we are not much better.

From a quality of football standpoint this is so dire to watch. There is zero jeopardy in our play these days. Wingers who can’t/wont beat a man. Full backs that can only pass back to centre backs. Our most progressive player is our CDM. It’s a fucking snoozefest almost every week.

Fans want KDB and Haaland back to fire us to another title. I just want them back just to make us watchable again.

Accrington Stanley doing a job on us

Trying to pronounce the oppositions name I sound like one of those annoying tik tok twats.

Urawa Red twat? Sorry couldn't resist.

 

[Cityfan1977]

I have seen alot of park the bus but never seen anything like this WTF

 

[jimharri]

Not watching but 78% possession, no shots conceded, 13 shots. Sounds better than the matchday thread is suggesting (although that's hardly a new thing).

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Superb from Nunes , but we desperately need Haaland , KDB and Doku fit again just to have attacking options we are so predictable , Grealish the most predictable player on the planet , he went past his full back once on the outside in 45 minutes , he had a great season last year but once Doku is fit he is far more dangerous and unpredictable and i think he will get the nod on the left wing.

I know it's sacrilegious to criticize Rodri, but he hasn't exactly been at his brilliant best since his return from suspension either.

I trust the mods are monitoring this clown? every post is slagging off someone

Live baits must be illegal and 6 years jail time plus fine .

 

[deano ou812]

Still early days we haven’t give up the one shot on goal for the opposition yet ..

 

[Rory Bluelow]

Great looking stadium…

 

[maurizio]

Will get a better idea after they have a shot on target

It would be best if they just don't have a shot on target.

 

[East Level 2]

That piece of play by Nunes reminded me of the sudden injection prime Aguero could provide out of nowhere.

Very true. It used to say "Etihad Airways" on Aguero's shirt as well.

 

[SamBlue]

And that Dutch Scouser complained only one team wanted to play football. It's been like that 95% of the times since Pep arrived.

 

[Brewster's millions]

Get Kovacic off and put Bobb on.

I see that there was some talk in the Turkish papers the other day about Kovacic going there on loan in January - we wouldn’t miss him on recent showings.

We need to sign a top class midfielder in January. Nunes looks promising and at least offers something new in terms of his runs forward. Kovacic does very little.

Convinced this place is infiltrated with rags. There is no way at all some making comments are City fans.

If they are I can only presume they are born around 2012. Beggars belief some of the thick comments.

 

[WestGorton]

Nunes runs at the defence. Positive player.

 

[discopop]

They obviously thought the Woy playbook was the way to go but it’s fucking dull as fuck, I wish Pep would just allow a full back to bomb on from time to time on the overlap if just to break up the monotony of it all.
