To the poster who's reported the same individual 3 times, one report is enough. Thanks.

Dead chuffed for Foden

Weird game. Had loads of chances. Should be comfortable but are far from it.Haaland clearly not yet fit. Slightly chaotic at the back. Pep with work to do..

 

[daveiw01]

My streams miles behind.....still not scored

Newcastle are 2-1 up, but I reckon we'll do 'em.

;)

 

[paulsimpson]

Overall very good, but Ake has been very shaky this half. Not himself today.

Maybe switch with Gvardiol ~

 

[nellyonthewing]

We’ll need 2 more to win this .They are bound to get one if the go into our half.

foden scoring an important goal and making a big difference again

 

[deano ou812]

Early goal second half will completely knock the stuffing out of them,I’d change it slightly I’d honestly take Haaland off,and revert to how we set up against Newcastle and Spurs recently..

 

[meeesh]

De Bruyne and Haaland might both be on the pitch but Foden is the one who's stepping up when needed, as he has for the last 2-3 months.

Well the 2 mentioned have both been out for over and 2 months respectively, so he's fucking had to?

Doesn't make sense what you've put there

The match day thread never fails.

If there’s a record for number of corners in a first half we’ve probably broken it.

Think it’s deffo the record for amount of shit corners lol

 

[One Fan Clapping]

Ridiculous stats from 45 minutes

I picked the wrong game to not bet on corners. I did every other game this weekend.

 

[Gigant]

Doku for Bernardo
Grealish for Alvarez
And somehow should make a place for Kovačić, Stones and Akanji for better ball control. We made poor 247 passes

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

I think we’ve played very well to be honest.

They’ve had the same plan in every game we’ve played them since promotion, we should be coasting as per but they’ve got the 300 stunt double between the sticks; thankfully we’ve been grinding their legs and I’m confident we’ll put it to bed second half

For all our domination…

xG

Brentford 0.47 City 1.30

That feels right. Not buying the keeper having a worldie. I don't think there's a save he made that you wouldn't expect.

We just need our defenders to stop losing their heads every time a long ball is played in

 

[Lavinda Past]

You wouldn't think that in here...

It's full of mentals, this thread. I'm the voice of reason

:-)

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Not sure there's a point having Haaland on with so little space.

Well he pins two players, which can help the others. Take him out and the other attackers probably find it even tougher to break through.

We've been shit apparently, according to the Match day thread posters.

 

[super_city_si]

Battered them. But were so shaky at the back

 

[NoCompromise]

Regullon is the problem
