Match Thread | Man City vs. Brugge (29/01/25)

[DMA's]

Lewis for Nunes, Sav for Gundo. Joke playing Phil on the wing.

Oh god. Lewis. Really is mental that it’s between nunes and Lewis for right back.

 

[Aphex]

Why the fuck is Nunes even playing there? Is Pep trying to throw him under the bus?

Feel sorry for him

 

[01cravend]

Phil scored how many goals last season playing inside right?.....and 6 goals in last 4 on top of that... So Pep has put him out on the left and this not a day after Phil saying he was frustrated having to play there for England.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

This is one crazy set up by Pep. Gundo number 10 ahead of Phil, who is rendered ineffective on the left wing. Bernie on right wing also wasted. Nunes in back three with Stones pushing up.

Someone please make it make sense to me.

Jobs for the boys.

Pep would rather not upset his pals in the team.

 

[Cuban heels]

Have to get Nunes off (out of the club would be preferred). Stones at RB, 3 at the back and Foden in the middle behind Haaland

Yawn

 

[Gabriel]

Never convinced by Kovacic, Gundogan, and De Bruyne when playing the massed ranks. All three want to be facing play and all struggle on the half turn. Gundogan conceded and they countered to score but the same happened with de Bruyne earlier. Either Foden or McAtee would be more effective.

 

[heslops barnet]

Hard to sustain excitement when that’s served up.

Are you excited watching our performance?

 

[Kun Blue]

All on Pep this. You can count on one hand the amount of times we’ve played well with any two of Gundo, KDB and Bernardo on the pitch at the same time, let alone all three.

 

[Beanhead]

Frankly if Pep is going to continue with this sort of football it's probably better he leaves.

Bernie had a great game on Saturday in the middle. He's been useless wide right for some time. Foden should be playing there.

Substitutes required now. If he doesn't make any he's lost the plot.

My like was for the last line btw. I don’t want Pep to leave for the record.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Jack is a big upgrade on Gundy & Kev now

Happy Jack doesn't know how to shoot.

 

[SilvaisSkyBlue]

100% & im getting sick of it. If he wants to go then move on

Could you show him the way and fuck off from here now!

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

Always preferred the FA cup

Better off out of these Mickey Mouse cups.

 

[Goro]

When your full backs are never aware of what's behind them, you're going to get found out.
Just one more false dawn - getting boring.
Throw the sink at them - rather go for it and lose 0-3 than a tepid half mirroring the first drudgery...

Real 0-1 0-3 at this point it’s all the same

It doesn’t. It’s why we are losing and haven’t had a shot.

 

[superwatsonwatson]

Just astonished Nunez hasn’t learned from PSGs first goal. Just defend ffs.

 

[69FACUPfinal]

I am sick of the TNT commentators, they have been willing City to lose, no commentary, just bleating on and on about how crap we are and advertising other sports in the future. They are gloating, and it makes me sick

Mute the sound. I do. It helps.

 

[Twisted-wheel]

Nunes had a shocker but the rest of the defending was shite as well. Kovacic was the only one who could be arsed running back.

All season and we still can’t defend to save our lives.

Some are incapable of running back as they are too old and fucked

 

[jaiguruKun]

It's mind-boggling stupid isn't it?

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Every team now knows they can kill us on transitions.

It’s not even hard or skill. Nick the ball and surge 3-4 players forward and we have no legs to recover. Must be 30 goals conceded this year that are identical
