Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Burnley (27/09/25)

[Damanino]

I think Leeds and Sunderland have more to their game than Burnley so likely these are on paper the weakest side we will host in PL.

we are just not great at breaking down deeper defences despite we will face these clubs a lot over the season.

 

[burning blue soul]

Savinho hasn’t played badly but obviously he’s the one to slag off it seems at the moment

Look, I've not slagged the lad, but if he could just once put in a MotM performance, just once.... well, that would be swell.

 

[malg]

Cmon city. Massive half needed

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

This ref is genuinely retarded.

That's what happens when you give Ivan Drago's stunt double the role of a PL ref. Fucking roid head.

 

[SWPISHOME]

He has one attribute blocking the ball in the box and because he is one of our leaders pep won’t drop him! That new contract was baffling

He used to have the attribute, as we've seen today along with numerous times over the last 18 months or more he's nowhere near it.

Complete shadow of the player we used to watch, agree with the contract extension it's baffling how he got an extension, being rewarded for failure performance wise.

The Guinness tastes great and hasn’t run out yet.

We’ve resorted to a dram!

 

[argyle]

ruben dias is such a bad defender man

He is not.

But his limitations are exposed when he doesn't have someone like a Walker or Khusanov for pace etc.

 

[heslops barnet]

Wish Nunes would just fuck off

 

[TheThirdDeano]

Dunno what nunes is flapping his arms about then. Don’t hit the man

 

[Gumzy97]

What Doku is doing, Savinho needs to start doing, Savinho keeps picking the safe option.

 

[AirbagsOptionalTheReturn]

FFS....Nunes turns his back on that daisy cutter

You gonna give him any credit for all the good he has done today? Or just point out negatives?

 

[King Jay]

Dias’s fall off is pretty worrying.

And the club still extended for whatever reasons

 

[Blueknows]

Build up play is so slow

 

[heslops barnet]

Corners are still shite

 

[Gaz76]

Big Erl has to be the only centre forward ever that is allergic to playing with wingers

 

[Eccles Blue]

I’m sure I should know this but where is Rhodri? :-(

 

[yankblue]

I'd get Bobb on. Savinho's been pretty ineffective, and there's not a lot of space out there which Bobb seems to do well with. But I know fuck all

 

[super_city_si]

Change it man. We need a midfield.

 

[Doc_Testosterone]

We seriously managed to come out with less control on this second half.

To be fair, every cross looks like it's being spammed in by Stevie Wonder
