Match Thread | Manchester City vs. B.Leverkusen (25/11/25)

[HypnoticBlue]

I fear Pep maybe reaching his sell by date with tonight’s selection, to leave Savinho on is a joke.
Last season we had injuries but now there is no excuse, pick your best team always.

 

[GLBlue1995]

What the hell happened to Nico? He was really coming around and I felt like we'd gotten that stability back in the middle of the park.

He's been attrocious today. Just awful

 

[69FACUPfinal]

Does Savinho ever look where he passes the ball?

No. And I think he greaes his boots with butter because he ALWAYS loses the ball.

 

[Chak19]

That's two now Haaland.

 

[citysince88]

Ive just finished work.

How bad has it been?

 

[BlueMojito]

We're making it far too easy for them by putting no pressure on when they've got the ball.

 

[pbueno16]

Why on earth would you play a massively weakened team after a sickening league defeat, one becomes two becomes a crisis

Results is one thing I can excuse, but only if we’re playing well. This performance and the one against Newcastle are abysmal.

 

[decmancity]

I keep counting the black shirts because there’s about 15 of them on the pitch.

 

[BuryBlue1977]

What’s happened to big Erl

 

[1961_vintage]

When did we last take a good corner ?

Vincent v the rags.

 

[borassic]

This is not happening tonight

 

[Luke The Blue]

if we are brutally honest Pep's record in The Champions League is poor given the resources available to him. Too often he's tried to play the master technician and fucked up Tonight is yet another example.

Will never forget when he dropped Fernandinho in the final. I Still get pissed off now thinking about it.

 

[VOOMER]

Once again our transfer business looks atrocious.

 

[youngbob]

All on Pep this.

Too many changes to the team which killed any momentum or good feeling before kick-off, persisted with Savinho after a disgraceful cameo at the weekend, and has now ended up with Reijnders at RB while chasing a game.

Lost control of it from the word go.

 

[sh249]

They are really good at playing through the press.

To be fair, an under-8s team could play through our press.

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

This is as bad as anything last season. We are back to creating fuck all and also looking like we will concede every single attack.

 

[Legal Alien]

Come on Erling lad

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

I watched masters football a few weeks back on YouTube and Petrov is still better than Savinho.

Mike Summerbee would be better than Savinho.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Got to score

No it's just what happens when you play with a bunch of lazy bastards.
