Match Thread | FC Copenhagen vs Man City (13/02/24)

[argyle]

Can we put Haaland on?

They're doubling up sometimes putting three on him which is leaving space for others.

 

[jimharri]

About time Kev got a jammy assist with the amount he's put on a plate for nowt over the years

Might be a bit of a stretch, calling that an assist.


But I'll gladly take it.

 

[Spandau Billy]

Terrible bias from Radio 5 Live commentators especially wanker Warnock.

 

[chesterbells]

This commentator on TNT is a fucking WHOPPER.

Absolutely emptied himself there.

Lol. Very true though.

 

[fuskarn]

we've been class going forward, but our backline has been making absolutely stupid mistakes all season

 

[Stato]

2-1

 

[Revolver]

These rare errors playing out from the back just illustrate how brilliant we are usually are at it.

We make it look easy. It’s probably not.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Think some of you should just listen to one of those City watch alongs as any commentary not 100% pro-City every second seems to annoy you.

It seemed ok to me. To be honest I didn’t think they were particularly dirty either.

 

[Blu3m00n91]

We are so good.

 

[Haaland94]

Shame about Jack. He looked great in the first 17mins or so.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

We were in control until the Eddie brain-fart. No point in dwelling on that, it’s the way we play and the odd mistake is inevitable.

I think our full backs have been really poor tonight. Walker is doing my fucking nut in with this obsession with passing back to Dias. He’s borderline stalking him. Ake has been as indecisive as I have seen him all season.

Foden, KDB and Bernie all playing well.

Need to see more from the big man up top.

A very typical City of late

Arguably the best we've played in that first 20 minutes, reminder of the level we got to at the end of last season. As usual, numerous chances just not being taken.

Then out of nowhere their first sniff of a chance and its an equaliser!

Think we can go on to get another in the 2nd half and maybe even a 4th.

It feels like we've given away every goal we've conceded this season! Make one silly mistake and we're instantly punished! I honestly can't remember the last goal we conceded without making an error!

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

I'm somewhat calmer. Hoping for a two or three goal cushion for the second leg.

 

[don84]

Erling could win a high jump medal at tge Olympics with his jumps!!!!

He actually has a junior world record in jumping from stand-still.

fun fact

 

[TrentGrisham]

Do you ever post anything positive?

I find it comical that people like you say shite like this when I'm constantly defending Akanji, Grealish, Doku, etc... But I'm SURE you see me doing that and refuse to acknowledge it.

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Gutted for Jack, he was looking razor sharp along with the whole team. Hopefully getting him off quickly will minimise the impact.

Silly goal to concede but I’m expecting a sharp second half and another goal or two as they tire.

 

[big gaz]

Now the flappers can rest easy ..

So on a forum some get upset with Eddie fucking , is that wrong ? if reacting to live play ?
We all know what this thread is all about either hang with it it or log off ffs.

 

[Brewster's millions]

The first 44 minutes was almost a perfect representation of the season so far. Miles better than the opposition but conceding the usual daft goal.

Two great finishes for the goals but Bernado’s touch was sublime.

We should finish the tie tonight.

Hopefully Grealish isn’t too badly injured because we looked much better with him on. Doku seems to have trouble keeping his feet at the minute, but he could be deadly in the last 15 minutes if we get him in the right areas.

Anagram corrected.

Unless we rectify this recurring problem we won't win anything this season.

We go from the spectacular to the ridiculous too frequently and it's becoming frustrating because this squad of ours is by far the best in Europe.
