Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Brentford (09/05/26)

Yes, that is totally fair.
Still makes no sense to spend all that money and wages to play a LW at the RW.

He has a weak left foot, and isn’t the best at crossing.
He needs to be able to cut inside or he is half the player we bought.

Just stupid

Yeah, I think they just thought, get him, and see what we can do with him. It’s not working out at the moment, so who knows.

I was delighted we signed him, I knew he wasn’t a great footballer but even I’ve been surprised how poor technically he is

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Get Kovacic on half time

 

[roach3]

That’s fucking shit not helped by the ref blowing for any contact

 

[Doc_Testosterone]

Of the 2 minutes added on Brentford were on the floor the entire first minute….and the referee blows his whistle at 47:05

 

[wolviedinho]

Boo is just right.

We have set standards at this club.

This team falling short.

 

[Don Karleone]

Why the boo's?

The ref I would think

 

[heslops barnet]

The injury was more than two minutes, add on their time-wasting and it should be 4 or 5.

You want to watch more of this crap?

 

[dannyboiblue]

Dominating games like that should be 4 or 5 nill doku outstanding

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Why the boo's?

The ref

 

[Phoenix900000]

Ref is bobbins to say the least

 

[ShaunMCFC]

Get Kovacic on half time

What for? Cement the 0-0

 

[69FACUPfinal]

Does reinjders have any creativity ffs

No.

 

[DMA's]

I think we have to be honest. We aren’t a great team anymore.

 

[ALDN_Ko]

Shit

Once again, mind boggling decisions from Pep that everybody knew would result in crap football. Semenyo and Reijnders shouldn’t be touching the sidelines let alone the football pitch atm.

 

[HelloCity]

Boo is just right.

We have set standards at this club.

This team falling short.

The boos are for the ref.

OBVIOUSLY

 

[Tb1981]

At least Foden will try
He may be in shite form but fuck me
Reijnders and cherki are so slow
Semenyo awful for the forever game in a row
Only doku playing well here for a second game in a row

 

[remember arthur mann]

Bernardo gonna get himself sent off ffs

What a way to leave.

 

[Taylor]

Nevermind Pep bollocking them at half time, let Doku do it.

Semenyo and Haaland will be lucky to come out for the 2nd half, Doku's played the same cross 5 or 6 times and they're fucking nowhere.

The same cross that has picked out a Brentford player every time. If Doku could work on his final ball he would be unplayable.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

The ref has been absolutely awful. How do you not see that Nunes gets the ball there? Then blows up right on the minute despite Kelleher taking nearly a whole minute on the free kick.

 

[King Jay]

O’Reilly is so left dependent it’s insane. How can players refuse to use their weaker foot for a pass?

3 subs please. That’s absolute horrible. Pep is going to wait until the 80 minute and 88th to bring on marmoush again .

Kovacic for Bernardo and savinho for Semenyo.
