Match Thread | Bournemouth vs. Manchester City (19/05/26)

[Brad mcfc]

Spineless

 

[pendlebury blue]

This game sums up our league season
Keep the faith

 

[M Gaudino]

why have we stopped playing. the centurion team kept playing football to the end. we’ve hoofed it to the wing a fair bit tonight instead of keeping the ball and grinding the opposition down

they have been great without the ball though

 

[stan bowles]

There is something fundamentally wrong with our team. We have 9 days rest before Everton and play dross ( and lose thrcleague),they have 9 days rest and play like heavy metal champions. We are woefully unfit.

How far did Everton go in Europe and the 2 domestic trophies that we ended up winning ? How many more games have we played than them this season. Not rocket science.

 

[ALDN_Ko]

Tactical setup has been so naive. High pressing, highly mobile & energetic team. So what does Pep do? Benches his attacking sparks and then takes off all his midfielders to leave on a post ACL midfielder as the only defensive support. Timely departure

 

[journolud]

Going down with a whimper

 

[DMA's]

all that 'Phil is back" after a decent 20 minute cameo last week at home to Palace is sadly misguided

He doesn’t have a football brain

 

[Cuban heels]

Haalands given up

 

[remember arthur mann]

Phils too deep.

 

[christened at st marks]

Turned it off to painfull

 

[HypnoticBlue]

That was just stupid by Rodri then.

 

[madloaf]

Nonsense. They’ve given it everything. Just a game too far.

They played a tense final 3 days ago whereas Bournemouth been rested.

We had 3 days rest before beating Real Madrid 4-0 in 2023. This rest bollocks is, as the kids say, pure copium.

 

[argyle]

His second half of the season has been dreadful.. he should have been benched

He's hardly broke sweat.

 

[bondsman]

Savio and Marmoush are fucking garbage. And we’ve thrown both on to win us a game. They both need to go and so does Kovacic. Looked alright against Southampton because they’re championship. So disappointing to surrender with a whimper.

 

[Brendan110_0]

So, so poor today. Too many of these this season, Rodri struggling still, hopefully Savinho is sold, he's just not good.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Haaland’s effort levels tonight have been embarrassing

He looks a shadow of his former self

 

[super_city_si]

Id love to know their pass completion compared to ours. We’ve been awful

 

[Metal Biker]

47 seconds of stoppage time.

 

[Tb1981]

Bournemouth are very good
Not sat back and invited us on
They have pressed us into errors and we haven’t got going

 

[Blu1]

Lots wrong with us tonight, energy, body language, ability , organisation in a game we must win is bizarre.

It’s just time for a new city now
