We lost. We will have a nice rest, start the season and off we go.

THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD. :-)

But we are not in all the world are we, on that showing we won't be best in the premiership

 

[Mr. Shush]

Nope looks like the usual overreaction as always.
Most of the old guys wont be here when the season starts.

Its not an overreaction to see that when we're running towards our own goal it usually ends up a shambles. We have no speed to compensate for the high line we run. And I'm not sure who you think is leaving. Dias and Akanji aren't going anywhere. Ake perhaps.

 

[Kamikaze Blue]

It's a shit result but you've got to keep a sense of proportion. Like in the press, last week we beat Juve and we're nailed on to win the prem. Today we're doomed again. ffs it's pre season, keep the faith.

 

[Kaini Industries]

Enjoyed watching the new players but the season starts in six weeks and it's time for them to go and sit on a beach for a bit.

 

[Skrastins]

has Pep said anything about why Nico is not playing?

Which one?

 

[Skrastins]

Which one?

Gonzalez

 

[chesterbells]

How did Savhino stay on that pitch the guy is useless only good thing he does I wave his arms at the crowd

I must admit he does frustrate a lot doesn’t he?

 

[manimanc]

Not really a glorified friendly was probably worth more than Champions league to the winners, we had a big squad out there which should have done better than this mornings performance. I'd much rather we continued in the competition.

Worth more than the champions league?
Ok buddy.

Would rather Akanji went than Ake.

Shit, they've thrown us in to the Scottish League.

 

[Gabriel]

Gonzalez

Not convinced he’s rated. All very peculiar.

 

[bluetonium]

Glad I didn't bother staying up then. Do we need to arrange some pre season fixtures now pretty hastily? Annoying to wake up to a defeat, weird feeling as I was just starting to give a crap about the competition, but it's kind of hard to get absorbed when every other kick off in a knock out competition is 2am in the bloody morning. I suppose at least going out now gives us some kind of break, getting further would make our pre season a real struggle.

At least I can delete that DAZN app now, constantly asking us to upgrade with a huge banner than blocked the actual game ever 5 seconds. And to hear they want to pronounce it DAZON... Reminds me of that sweet I can never again buy, because apparently Mentos isn't pronounced Men Toes, it's Men Toss. What marketing fool thought that'd work? Who walks in to a shop and buys a pack of Men Toss?

Anyway, break for the lads now and then the serious work begins.

 

[manimanc]

Just woke up didn’t expect to get beat by them!

Anyway at least the players will get a good 3/4 weeks holidays now!

Mate stop talking sense.
The bedwetters are out in force. Apparently this is more important than the champions league to some.

There is a very strong smell of red cartel wankers in this thread.

Be warned.

 

[JOGAMIGMOG]

I’m here in USA with my two daughters and future brother in Law. Finally got back to our digs. Words fail me. I’ve been let down by City big time before, we all have. This is worse than Wigan.
For me, personally, it’s not about the money that our trip has already cost, nor the extensive planning on booking two routes based on finishing first or second in the group or the time off work. It’s not even the dream. It’s about a shambles which we had to watch. Probably the worst defensive display I have ever seen by City. What a kick in the teeth to me, us, and the people who put effort in.

This waving of the arms shite has crept in recently like when players put their hand over their mouth when talking

Wankers

Play football as it should be and no crowd would need geeing up

 

[christened at st marks]

Swap keepers and change the result, he wont even renew.
lot more wrong than that
playing Savinho for 90 plus mins
side passing brigade are back
playing a high line with no pacey defenders
not challenging for 50 50 balls

 

[dadnlad]

Just seen their second goal if only we'd pushed a bit higher up pitch at corner

It was great pass by cancello

Happy clappers are also out

That is Bluemoon

 

[69FACUPfinal]

You will get abuse for it but you're spot on. I would also add Savinho to that list.

So would I. He is gash, I say it every match.
