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

[Gobshiight]

Odd decision

 

[paulsimpson]

Bernardo was put on and has looked worse than any other player.

He covers space which does look worse than it really is

 

[Chak19]

That's not a foul from Romero let alone a yellow.

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

Roll on next season

 

[roy.or.r]

Teams have figured us out unfortunately. Not to mention we have Rodri out and we don’t have a prime KDB anymore.

 

[baggy]

Spurs have no intention of pushing for a goal but they could score anytime they wanted I reckon.

 

[King Jay]

Another Unc

you shouldn’t use that word. A bunch might get offended by that.

 

[dannyboiblue]

Hope this shows pep we need to get the cheque book out

 

[eyalluvitt]

It’s more that teams have top quality players or players who control the ball with first touch pass well and set up to system that always hurts us!

Spurs are full of very good 50m players, similar to us on our day

 

[M Gaudino]

9 year 500K per week contract

it increases every season i think

 

[chesterbells]

We look weak and hesitant

And certainly not sure-footed …

 

[TFC]

They’ve just been better. Long hard look in the mirror needed from all concerned regardless of the end result.

 

[Mr. Wednesday]

Looking fairly inept here, sadly. Gotten worse since the subs too.

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

That's unlucky

 

[TheThirdDeano]

Ironing out the kinks, don’t worry even if we lose this x we’ll be back.
Eventually!

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Forget the players here for a min.

We have bigger problems.

The whole set up dosent work anymore.

Can pep change? Not on last season and now this seasons limited evidence.

We all knew the success was not sustainable. Well this is it.

Nicely put - if we're playing a GK who isn't consistently good with his feet, stop playing the fuckin ball to him. If we're looking too slow with our build up - alter the play accordingly.
I've loved the football we've played but everyone else now has a way to counter it, and it's compounded by our players not being the same quality we had

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

get it past the first man

 

[deano ou812]

Quality isn’t there compared to previous teams which was huge in quality..

 

[M Gaudino]

if we get one things can change. spurs wet the bed at 2-0 up against psg

The goods news is there are still 20 minutes to go.

The bad news is there are still 20 minutes to go.
