When I saw this was up to 124 pages already I figured it wasn't good:-)

Please; leave the politicking to the relevant forum.

Just a wee joke Jimbo

 

[Chak19]

Somebody should tell Savinho to stop fucking shooting if he can't fucking shoot.

 

[malg]

I see Rico is tonight's scapegoat.

A few have had a dig but one in particular is slaughtering him. Matchday Thread eh.....

 

[paulsimpson]

Too much risk adverse football for my taste.


We need to attack with reckless abandon. Enough with the passing back every 5 seconds

Calming it down. Need basics right now. Reckless would not be good

 

[MMA]

This is so frustrating, Doku on for a starter and probably Kev too

I'd take erling off.
Play dok through the middle.

People might not rate him but he causes panic in the oppo.

Erl a passenger again.

 

[jimharri]

I don’t get it. He didn’t miss the great chances. He didn’t give away a stupid penalty but yet he seems to be the target of the hard of thinking

Suppose they need someone to blame with Walker not playing

Some of the ones slagging him are just WUMs.

 

[I'm Blue]

Are we waiting till the 80th minute again to wake back up.

 

[phargrave]

Our final ball is fucking pathetic

 

[trueblue1972]

How can we be so dominant in the first half, and be 3-1 down within 4 minutes of the restart?

Similar way that we came back against Gillingham at Wembley, the Aguero , Gundo v villa
Izzzzzzz foooootbaaalll

 

[dublin-blue]

How the fuck have we become this shit? Like what the hell is going on?

The core of our squad is injured, Players are ancient and the system that served us well for years has been cracked.

 

[MCFC1993]

Wake me up when Doku's on.

 

[Metal Biker]

Stop crying for them. They have a perfectly good team out tonight and we were in full control (but failed to kill the game off) and then not once, but 3 times defended like idiots, nothing to do with exhaustion or out of form. At some stage kids have got to come into the team as they do at other clubs.

Wow, you'd have lasted five minutes in the 90's with City...

 

[Gumzy97]

If Haaland doesn't score. We lack a cutting edge from the wings. Goal scorers.

 

[King Jay]

Somebody should tell Savinho to stop fucking shooting if he can't fucking shoot.

He has no one to overlap him. I honestly don’t get this inverted RB.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

How is it possible we only have one striker at city ???? It’s totally mental

We have fucked up basically. Saying that, you go one nil up away in Europe. You can’t defend like this. Completely suicidal same as it’s been all season. We don’t have the pace to ply this high line.

The worst thing is we played well first half and are still getting best. It’s concerning to say the least. International break can’t come soon enough.

Peps line up in the game he “wasn’t prioritising” was absolute madness and here we are.

 

[RayCTID]

Get KDB and Doku on.

Gives them something else to think about,

 

[argyle]

How the fuck have we become this shit? Like what the hell is going on?

Missing two of the best players in the world.

Also three of the best defenders.

 

[jimharri]

Yep. I've had 3 pms about him.

 

[Nelinho]

The need to recruit quality full backs has been there for around 4 years. Feeling smart about getting good money from transfers doesn't equate to success on the pitch.
I repeat. Ake, Akanji and Kyle no longer good enough. JS injured more than fit and zero back up for Rodders, but hey look at all the money we made in transfers.

You're not supposed to talk like this in this forum, haven't you heard? Don't tell me you want "shiny new toys"?
