Match Thread | Man City vs. Plymouth (01/03/25)

Grealish always plays like this regardless. These players are low level championship for a reason, you'll catch them flat footed more often, switch off more often but grealish is ponderous and will never look to make use of any advantage. It's as if he wants everything to come easy for him and the thing is we know he had the ability, this is what makes it frustrating

He’s actually been progressing the ball in the last 15 minutes and it’s taken conceding first for Bernardo to put a cross in. They’re playing with 5 at the back and know there’s not going to be anything coming from our right side so they’re just denying the space.

It’s not bed wetting that we will get beat, it’s the abject lack of pride and effort from millionaires

Have you got Wednesdays lotto numbers? It’s too late for tonight. I ask as you’ve just said you know the result.

 

[Coatigan]

WTFs happened to the South Stand.

It got extended. In 2015, I think.

 

[kashmir]

I will take that but how far have we dropped on pace and ideas this season

 

[pudge]

Needed that before the half, get some goals on the pitch now Pep

 

[hertsblue]

Predictable with the line up.
All the ball, no goal threat with it, and as usual 1 shot v us is a goal.
Needs to add some pace 2nd half as our wingers are making it far to easy for them

 

[SCEtoAUX]

Nice goal that, well done lad.

 

[TFC]

Put a fucking striker on second half and let’s put this to bed ffs

 

[21MCFC21]

The wide partnership of Grealish and Bernie is fucking horrible.

Remeber the treble days when this pair were destroying Madrid and the rest of the leauge? How times have changed.

 

[journolud]

As usual nowhere near as bad as some of the idiots on the match day thread say, Plymouth defending well and inevitably score from aa corner we didn’t need to concede.

1-1 far from a fair reflection at half time

 

[Twisted-wheel]

Age and injuries

I know but surely at this level, Bernardo as well just continues to give the ball away cheaply. Frustrates the shit out of me

 

[TShed]

Now get Silva off

 

[samuelyeboah]

not playing amazing but also not playing terrible as some people suggested. we've been okay, the better team, deserve to lead. Unfortunate not to. shake it off and let's win it

 

[WallyA]

Nico has barely been allowed to be involved in this game.

One chance and he scores, this guy can do the job at LB yes, but he has potential as a false 9 or actual striker.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Haha they turned the crowd volume down after we scored and said it was lethargicly celebrated

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

No more fucking around City.

.
.....let's eat them in the 2nd half !!!

 

[Dax777]

Nico and Gvardiol are almost mirror images. With Nico having better foot skills and Gvardiol better movement.

They are both offensively productive and defensively stout. I like our left back options as is

 

[I'm Blue]

Massive bollocking needed at halftime.
I ain’t blaming Pep for the team selection.
It’s Plymouth ffs!
Need to step it up and work harder.
That first half was played at a snails pace from us.
So many of them players can do better and work harder.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

I’m at the match. I don’t think we’ve been that bad. They’ve had one chance and scored

 

[MMA]

I agree I think he’s done here, tell you what though what a fucking player he’s been. Unfortunately in this game you can’t afford to carry passengers.

Still can whip a ball in haha

Nobody I mean nobody denies what a legend he's been..
And that includes rival supporters..
But it's time to give it up.
It's detrimental to the team.
Same as gundo.

I'm holding on Bernie because I just think he's having a shit season.
