How many of you are City fans? 25% at best. Morons or rags.

First game 1969. Season ticket for over fifty years , what about you ?

Investing in Fanny wipes.

One week it's all wingers, next it's wingless. It must be difficult to play in a team when the manager is unsure of how we are trying to play.

 

[eastmanc]

Yet they keep starting. Same with Gundo, Bernardo & Kovacic. It's bordering on negligence.

Do you mean madness.

Are you honestly questioning fans opinions after the predictable shit showing?

 

[Blue and true]

Phil’s season saddens me. He doesn’t make massive blunders, he just doesn’t catch the eye anymore. Feels like he’s just turned the lights off and gone to bed.

Same, mate. The shite I'm seeing from the others isn't bothering me half as much.

 

[give it to gordon]

Fucking hell even a fucking advert with taa saying he should be a Sir fucking hell

 

[paulsimpson]

Keane more frustrated with us than us.

Yeah it seems that way. Knows we should have put our chances away and annoyed we haven't. Maybe he has a few bob on us!?

 

[Burtonblue]

More a good save than a bad miss.

Really???
The keeper fucking HELD IT!!!!
Shit pen

 

[Blueknows]

was a bit late to the game
and when i turned on the tv
haaland missed a penalty, we lose one goal and never created more chances after

Erl should be on a hatrick

Why pep persists in playing slow drudging players that rely on possession based games when we can't control shit anymore, we just pass it around aimlessly and then give it away at first sign if pressure

The answer is easy

the players on the bench change nothing.....who on the bench replaces Gundo and KDB or Bernardo?

Nico OReilly? !!!! he is a young talent but he aint changing anything in this team....the players outwide dont sort the issues out which are in the centre of the pitch.

Grealish - what does he add centrally?

Marmoush doesnt change anything in the midfield...he just ends up isolated as our midfield dnt provide anything

Lewis just gets bullied

 

[super_city_si]

Diabolical from Nunes for the goal.

The midfield is about 3 yards to slow.

We’ve got to fuck this “control” concept off as the midfield is past doing it.

Get Marmoush and Doku on and go direct.

Ederson gave up on the control route after 10 mins and has been launching it. Dead right to get marmoush ans Doku in.

 

[Damanino]

first 10 mins of 2nd half will decide this game. if we are not back in it and show serious fight for the cup and raise our game then we are not in it mentally and probably better go out here than vs Forest in Wembley.

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

It’s the lack of effort and caring that’s really pissing me off. The weakest mentality I’ve ever seen from players that have won it all. It’s pathetic

I’ve lost count of the times Bernardo or Phil have made a reckless flick or pass in decent areas of the pitch to gift possession. First rule of not playing well and being a goal down, dig in like fuck and take care of the ball.

We are all over the place. I can accept losing but let’s play with some heart and personality. We just look like we are in a season long funk.

 

[Keeper!]

2 or 3 players off it you can blame on form but the whole team?

Something very, very wrong

There in 99 watching Dickov on his knees at wembley

Is that ok?

 

[Kippax1973]

Nothing to do with tactics, his time is over, all managers have a shelf life

Been saying this for the last 6 months, but just get shouted down on here,, he can do no wrong in some eyes, well times up pep, thanks for the memories, even if we manage turn it round it's still time up

 

[Dax777]

100%, I'd rather that than the fucking abomination he did try :(

He tried to go across field to Gvardiol who was the only open player but he got shoved in the nack as he tried thr pass and mis kicked it. Apparently a shove is only a foul sometimes. :(

 

[Don Karleone]

Come on Pep, don’t suddenly realise there’s 5 mins left and try to go for it, there’s something in this for us if we just wake up

As shit as we have been, I agree.

 

[homerdog]

Let's have this right. No disrespect to the others intended, but this is the most open avenue cleared away to Wembley that we've had, basically, ever.
But do Palace, Forest, Bournemouth players care more, basically, about what may be a once-in-a-career opportunity? I'm not saying I know the answer, but the question has to be asked.

Did you see the final against Wigan?!
