Match Thread | Man City vs. Fluminense (22/12/23)

Marcelo looks like a fat Lucien from the Liverbirds. Get him a rabbit skin coat.

Fuck that var was quick

Automatic VAR for offsides, the thing the prem and FA rejected but is flawless and saves time

 

[jimharri]

Great experience for Lewis to be up against Marcelo, such a wily character.

Marcelo is fairly wily as well, to be fair.

;-)

 

[platty7]

We are playing it like the charity shield

 

[paulchapo]

They're looking much better than us at the moment and are play acting at every opportunity. A few of our lot need to wake the fuck up, sloppy, which has been indicative of our season so far.

 

[Coljj]

Fuck that var was quick

15 seconds... The replay graphic was only another 60 secs or so later to validate the decision.

 

[Chi-town blues]

We're getting schooled here

ok master

 

[deano ou812]

Fuck that var was quick

Semi automated which the premier league turned down due to not being 100% sure of it working right hahaha..

 

[super_city_si]

good job we scored early. These are playing much better than us

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

These lot are brilliant and fearless. We need to step it up and get a bit of control.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Playing a dangerous game here the Brazilians

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

What a game. This lot are mental

 

[hertsblue]

Lewis looks completely lost in this role

 

[chesterbells]

Like to see us keeping possession for a bit!

 

[Dax777]

This is a good team. The ball skills of their defenders will frustrate many a Premier league team

 

[Damanino]

funny match until we are in the lead.

 

[Gabriel]

They make our playing out from the back look conservative. They’d have to put more defibrillators at the Etihad if we tried that.

 

[jimharri]

We're getting schooled here

And yet we're one up.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Apart from the goal, we have been fairly poor so far.

We need to have a spell of possession. Fluminense are really good on the ball, but thankfully have done nothing in the final third yet.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

This idea of having Bernie stood grazing wide, with his finger up his arse, while we have no control central does my fucking box in.
