Match Thread | Real Madrid vs. Man City (18/02/25)

[Tolmie scores]

This is shit pep. Flat back 4, no shape, no threat going forward, holes in midfield, Foden doing nothing, Khuzanov being left on his own v bellend and cry baby. Really really poor from pep. It’s like watch wolves play Real Madrid

How we didnt set up for not conceeding in first half with just one goal in it is astoundingly nieve .. what sort of tactical meetings take place here?

 

[MCFC1993]

Of course first foul and a yellow

As long as he's consistent. They've got about 6 a yellow away from suspension.

 

[TB369]

What was the game plan here? I am struggling to see what the plan was supposed to be

 

[TueartsCossackSpray]

I think we’ll struggle to get a shot in this game as we’re not able to get up the pitch with the lack of athleticism.

 

[levets]

Dias in for a rough time

 

[Damanino]

Dias vs Mbappe is getting embarrassing.

 

[Blueknows]

Also what is the point of Bernardo Silva anymore ?

Agree some won't say it but been anonymous for a while now

 

[Blu1]

Boys v men in every position

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Chasing shadows, cant see how this is gonna get any better either. Would never gues we needed to score

 

[Chak19]

They've got a midfielder at RB and bloody Mendy at LB and Pep decides to play with no wingers, genius.

 

[Chippy_boy]

Where has our (albeit toothless and boring) possession-based game gone? Can’t keep hold of the ball for more than 10 seconds.

 

[jimharri]

the idea that foden can be the new de bruyne is dead. he doesnt run football games from out wide and cant be trusted to play midfield. not at this level. Gundogan is a passenger tonight

Tonight?

 

[YaYa's Left Peg]

So many passengers - Foden, Bernardo, Gundo, Ederson coming rushing out for the goal, OMG this is shit Pep!

 

[WestGorton]

We played quick and direct Vs Newcastle yet this is like over 60s walking football, don't get it.

It's because they are light years ahead of Newcastle

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Front 3 invisible so far

So are the other 8 useless gits and baldy on the bench.

 

[ShaunMCFC]

This “commentary” team from TNT tonight is a fecking joke. So pro Real and anti City. No wonder so many don’t pay and stream on their firesticks!

It’s obvious why they do it at this point, mcmanananananaman I can understand because he actually played for Madrid.

How the fuck that horrible cheating camel gobbed **** is on there I’ll never know

 

[ThreesKompany]

Khusanov really acquitting himself well in difficult circumstances. Bright light.

 

[Bluemoon115]

No shame in losing to Real Madrid.

But bitching out without any fight? Fuck me

 

[Brad mcfc]

Marmoush on his own upfront, 0 support

 

[Dicko69]

The main worry is we don't look like we've got a goal in us:(
Gundog slows us down too much:(
Hopefully keep it at 1-0 till the half, make some changes. Whether that's tactically or personnel and can get a couple of goals.
This is exactly what we pay the big bucks for from pep.
