Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Tottenham (23/08/25)

[stan bowles]

All the players thinking today was going to be a repeat of Wolves. Half asleep most of them and when they're not they're slipping over. Doku and Bernardo on

 

[Chippy_boy]

I predict a mad second half, we have to go for it and we are vulnerable on the transition.

Sums us up for most of last season. In fact, just sums us up.

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

pep picked the team

Yeah but almost everyone on the pre match thread loved that line up…me included.

 

[madloaf]

Well; that was a shit 45 minutes.

Nah. We're back.

 

[borassic]

50p head Erling. Gotta score that

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Still think we'll get a result from this

Usual issue of being on top then being rattled by a goal. Two avoidable mistakes cost us

Also think we're lacking a bit of leadership in the middle... I'd stick Bernardo on for Cherki at half time

I’d stick him on for Bobb. Good feet but easily shifted off the ball

 

[heslops barnet]

Haaland is absolutely pathetic with headers.

For a big **** he’s bobbins with his napper

 

[Eccles Blue]

I’m sorry Dad but this ref is a blooming utter fool. In my head I have said a lot of swear words in the past 15 minutes!!
This is one day I wish I could say/write them out loud.

I did actually write a swear word but had to erase it!!

 

[Paleblue2]

Awful half, glad to be drinking

 

[wolviedinho]

I can’t put my finger on it but we lack composure.

The training system/tactics is not making it to the pitch.

Think we have to accept we ain’t very good. Certainly no where near the previous levels.

Defo need another keeper and RB.

 

[oldius]

Enough chances to be level at least. Confident we will get back in this.

 

[deano ou812]

We have gifted them 2 goals all our doing how many shots on goal have they actually had apart from the 2 fuck ups ..

 

[kaz7]

Trafford is not ready to be our no' one , that was braindead , only eddie can do what eddie can do , he is press resistant

 

[Nascent Blues]

Manager is out of his depth. Can pick holes in individual performances but no team should look that disjointed.

Pep is out of his depth?

 

[baggy]

Getting absolutely bullied at home.

 

[ufo]

4-2 to spurs maybe

nah man don’t just look at the score atm , second half will be different. just watch just need few tweaks

 

[Coljj]

Offside trap looked good last week because Munetsi is basically Jesus 2.0

 

[jaiguruKun]

Bobb has been good and Haaland Ok apart from that miss. Everyone else has been completely shit.

 

[OntarioBlue]

The team is playing like strangers.

 

[domalino]

Fuck off, got to bury that

If we took our chances in front of goal it’s a completely different game.

The forwards put the pressure on the back 5 and then mistakes are inevitable.
