Bore it out for 80mins.
Southampton get tired.
We hopefully score in the last 10mins.

YAWN! and we're in the Champs League.

2 shots, 0 on target.

Against arguably the worst ever PL team since Derby.

Snore fest.

 

[Paul1970]

He should know that, but won't do anything about it for another 40 minutes playing time.

Then he will bring gundo on

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

Depends who we can sign I guess.

Wheoeber we sign will be coached to "Control"

 

[Marklr]

Bit shit this, isn't it?

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

Been asleep for the last 10 minutes..we are a very boring team

 

[hertsblue]

Honestly speaking, does anyone here actually enjoy watching our games anymore?

Be real — it’s boring.

How can you deny we desperately need fresh blood and fresh ideas?

I don’t even feel excited for the new season because nothing’s going to change.

Nope. Boring as hell.
A million miles off competing at any top level atm, best teams have pace, forward attacking and energy, we look like a team fitted to play soccer aid.
Januarys expensive transfer window looking worse by the week

Zzzzz

 

[youngbob]

First time in ages that we've played a team that just doesn't want to go beyond the halfway line. They will get tired, though.

Yeah but four in a row so you can't complain. Or something.

 

[Mancity1980]

What makes people confident it will be different next season?

Unless we get a number 10 it will be the same, doesn’t mean we won’t win anything.

 

[super_city_si]

Kev having a stinker

 

[OrigamiNinja]

What a boring team we’ve become.

Desperately need some pace and power.

I think this half is a lesson for those who overly criticise Doku. Look at us without him. Slow, boring, toothless.

 

[jollylescott]

Kev's unerring radar is not there anymore

 

[pudge]

Enjoy Serie A, Kev

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

We’re much more boring when we have to accommodate Haaland, long term we can’t really live without his goals (although we did before he came) but we lose all the interchanging of the forwards when he plays.

Dunno why we’re risking him.

He didn’t play against United / Everton away and we were equally as lifeless in those games. Pep has just gone completely safety first in games now as he obviously doesn’t trust the team to defend properly. The hope will be that eventually we break them down like we did with Everton.

It’s very dull to watch though.

 

[Draikin]

Walking football
We aren't tiring them playing like that.

 

[jrb]

Pep fucking about again with the formation.

Why change a winning team to accommodate Haaland?

a team we beat 1-0 at home
