If you could stick David Silva in this side Haaland would be flying.Sorry but in a season like this I would rather we had an Aguero than a Haaland striker style.
With Foden and Berny being ineffective we need a striker that tests the back four not wait to be fed
and I don't blame Haaland for this, the Attacking midfield are useless
I get the feeling you are not impressed!What load of shit.
Fucking sick of the same passive shit each week.
Sick of opponents having acres of space on our left.
Sick of players who can’t play a more than hour.
Sick of crucial errors
Sick of corners and free kicks never producing anything
Sick of shit average signings (looks like we are still making them)
Sick of 75% of the team not finishing the game where they started
Sick of slow play
Sick of the unwillingness to put an early cross in
Fucking Sick
They kiss top 5 on the arse
Yeah, you've described a pretty decent defensive performance for most of the game! considering those two things happened after the 70th minute.. wouldnt you say the opponent not entering our box for 70 minute is decent defending?
RB and creative/attacking midfielder are paramount.For me the three key areas to address in summer is left back, right back and creative midfield.
If you could stick David Silva in this side Haaland would be flying.
He’d play to Haaland’s strengths not his weaknesses.
Through balls for him to run onto is where he thrives, not stood static in a packed penalty area waiting for a quality cross that hardly ever comes.
Ah what we once was : (
He isn’t a full back which is a large part of the problemHe is an absolutely shit full back. At least one error in him every single game. Why he gets lauded on here I don’t know.
Without Guardiola we wouldn't have achieved half of our recent successes.For the umpteenth millionth time, NOTHING changes whilst Guardiola remains. Just eventually you happy clappers may just get it; this thing has run its course.
after the worldy save,the pathetic near post fk up.Looked a 0-0 banker
Until of course the shot Eddie should have saved
No comment ; )We could always play his statue. On todays evidence might have done better than what we had.
RB and creative/attacking midfielder are paramount.
More than 1 striker. We've typically had 3+ over the years (Aguero, Jesus, Sterling, Sane, Mahrez in 2018/19) and they were alongside peak DeBruyne and Bernado. Now we have Halaand with wingers that don't like shooting much at the moment.City struggle like hell against Low Block defences. I’m not sure what the answer is. Go all out for first 20 minutes, score first and invite opposition onto us so we can reverse the low block situation.
I love Khusanov. I kept my eye on him. He is some player already. Riise in the previous game looked like a John Stones clone. Nico is settling in nicely and will improve. Mamoush needs games and should play alongside The Viking, especially against low block defences.
Echeverri is in the squad and I can’t wait to see him in action. Oh and there is also Osca Bobb back in the squad now.
Rodri very close to full training and a chance to start his comeback soon.
Oh Shit I’m sorry I must be in the wrong forum. I thought I was in the positive thread, not the negative suicidal thread. My bad.
Their keeper didn’t have to make one decent save. Same as against the dippers. Our creativity is dire. Yes the shots stat will probably look good but I don’t remember us creating one good chance. Couple of pot shots from range but that’s it.Miles off what we were 18 months ago....we'd still be losing if we were still playing now.
Absolutely nothing up top, the amount of times we had 3/4 players in eachothers way on the edge of their area.
It works but it would be nice if a team near the top and at home didn't help us strangle the game.
Missed out on decent sunbeds at our hotel too watching that crap. We need a prime David Silva, Yaya to pull us up and create something.
Says it all that Lewis who has really struggled since the first few games was in our top 3 performers.
Yeah I was naffed off with the performance but this season is done in my eyes.You ok with that performance then ?
Yes we have wons loads more than I could ever imagine
And I will be forever grateful
But when a performance is bobbins as that was surely you have call out it’s shortcomings
More even across more teams but not the strongest IMO , we are 14-5-9 and headed for our worst season in the Pep era and we could easily finish outside the top 8 if we don't start winning more games , we have no more than mid table for a long time this season and little wonder we were terrible in the Chumps League.Surely that’s not as bad as 9 losses in 13, with only 1 win?
Yes, we’ve been that bad. Are we now meant to go to 3rd in the league and walk it?
Not aimed at you, just the premise that we’re at a point to forget everything that has gone before.
Personally, I think that the league has been the strongest it has been, just that we’ve had so many issues with players, after challenging years where we’ve overcome, there was very little chance of being at outperform best this season.
Onwards and upwards, as they say.
Absolutely. But surely he could/should make us harder to beat? Surely he could take the handbrake off an allow them to take a risk going forwards occasionally?Without Guardiola we wouldn't have achieved half of our recent successes.
