Match Thread | Southampton vs. Man City (10/05/25)

[AliAdel]

Why are we even still playing KDB? We’ve already announced not renewing his contract, may as well experiment with young players in his position; since there’s nothing to learn by having him on the pitch anymore.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Fucking hell. It's a high bar for fouls against us .

 

[Alexia_Ko]

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

do you think the signings were poor or that we signed the wrong players?

 

[I'm Blue]

Anyone else take a draw? ; )

 

[wolviedinho]

Yeah we are.
Hence why we need a big summer window.

Doku is the only one who beats a man. No wonder that’s most posters first choice.

Thats a pen.

 

[TinFoilHat]

No pen - Not a redshirt.

 

[Gorbachev]

It's a sad indictment on the quality of this league that this City team can finish 2nd.

 

[SWP's back]

I don't get playing McAtee and Lewis, they're too similar and safe!

We need to some pace on the wings

Pep isn’t the manager he once was.

Or maybe he is, but the one that used to make silly fucking team selections when he shouldn’t.

 

[tommybooth]

3 need changing at half time. Any three will do.

 

[jrb]

Do we need to win today, or is Pep happy with a draw against one of the worst teams in the PL?

 

[MCFC1993]

Another penalty not given,you have to laugh.

Think they judge whether the intended recipient was going to get there, he wasn't really near it.

 

[jamielowndes]

We must get a number 10 for next year. Build up really lacks some creativity.

Someone definitely needs to be the new KDB, from the perspective of being the one to break the system and know when to push the pace and break the game open. You cant just win a game by keeping the ball for 90 mins. You keep the ball as much as possible to be able to decide where and when to attack.

 

[Fordyboy46]

Fucking garbage

 

[roach3]

What? He fucking grabbed his arm while running in bent cunts

 

[B\connellblue]

That's it close your eyes when you're heading it.

 

[Mr Grumpy]

To think I put off digging the back garden for this....

 

[King Jay]

We need doku and marmoush.. at least they run at their defenders. We need anything but this!

They can’t control the ball as good though and play too fast. Our coach doesn’t like that

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Sick of hearing about how we need to play mcatee, how he will be better than gundog or Bernardo. Just isn't in this game

 

[East Level 2]

Back at Etihad when we could only win 1-0 against Southampton, Super Knowledgeable Fans here said Southampton deserve to be higher up in the table and they are not bad side failing to see the drop in city’s form an that time while also hyping a team who turned to be the 2nd most pathetic team in the PL history.

Not sure the same fans would again say Southampton don’t deserved the drop

It's a regular defence mechanism following a shite performance. I remember coming back from losing 3-2 at Norwich and all the happy-clappies were going on about how good Norwich were and how they'd finish mid-table. They were all very quiet when Norwich went down.

 

[01cravend]

Mcatee should be wearing a red and white shirt. That's his level
