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

[madloaf]

This is the first time I can actually understand the commentators being sad about city scoring. Everyone loves an underdog. Someone should tell the TNT crew that Real Madrid are not underdogs so they just sound fucking pathetic.

 

[jrb]

Let me remind those of you who are now happy. Plymouth are 2nd bottom in the Championship. Their goal difference is -32.

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

I would suggest 1-1 is flattering to plymouth and not quite a fair reflection, yeah we haven't had amazing chances but we've had enough good ones to be ahead

 

[lee one pen]

WTFs happened to the South Stand.

It’s full of Plymouth.

 

[Mr Grumpy]

Ake injury has annoyed me.

Stay fit ffs.

 

[sir baconface]

A masterclass in team selection, motivation, organisation and creativity.

Hope the fkn tea lady starts the second half.

 

[YatesA]

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.

None of this disputes my point, it still stands. Grealish is unecessarily ponderous on the ball way too much.

 

[vicblueman]

Shite goalkeeping, get in

He should of shouted keepers ball for the cross before the corner ,regardless of reis doing well clearing it .

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

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.

Lay off the drugs mate

 

[wattle]

Lol. You lot on here. Anyone with any football brain whatsoever can see we will win this. Even going a goal behind. They’ll be knackered after 60 mins of chasing from side to side. It’s called tactics - wearing a side down and having a bit of patience. Something that people don’t seem to have anymore

 

[Inter Me Nan]

House party!

 

[Mancity1980]

That was needed. I didn’t fancy mulling over being a goal down over the half time period.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Nice header...

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

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

A long way

 

[Solatron]

One chance one goal..same old story whoever we play. Pathetic. Had a feeling corners were going to be an issue looking at the size of these guys but McActee ..at least put a challenge in you useless idiot.

 

[Keeper!]

No Worries, we can bring on Grealish , Foden and McAtee in the second half

 

[kupest]

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

We havn't. We have created far more than what you would be led to believe on here. No one to blame at half time for me.

Was a striker in youth teams

 

[Brewster's millions]

Now get Silva off

I can understand wanting to rest Doku and Savinho, but I can’t believe we haven’t got someone in the Academy who can do a better job on that wing than Bernado.

It’s painful to watch.

Bring on the first team now ffs !
