Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Aston Villa (24/05/26)

[big gaz]

Just rested no?

Crossing practice ;-)

 

[simon23]

A lot of them will

It's the ones that will that concern me as well

Reijnders especially
Will anyone take Rico Lewis?
Kova?
Sav - played well but literally couldn't hot a barn door when shooting
Will Ake still be here...?

None of these are ultimately good enough

And this will prove very unpopular BUT Semenyo needs to drastically improve in some basic elements of his game.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Very classy by the Villa players, by the way. I suspect that gesture came on instructions from Unai at half-time.
Pity about their supporters.

 

[brummie blue]

Didn't know Villa had Rick Wakeman as an assistant coach?

set piece coach and assistant head coach of the Portugal

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Why are people like Rico and Nico pressing into the Villa box when they cant run? It’s one pass through and they can’t get back.

 

[ws01]

Ake is my new favourite City player

Never thought between him and Dias that he'd be the one I'd want staying here

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Deary me

was a perfectly valid comment

 

[Micky Blue]

Discovered Candy Crush last night and sprained both thumbs after a 6 hour session.

No, I have no idea. No real reason to play him today I guess.

I just assumed Trafford was leaving and it’s his farewell appearance.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Yes, but does not mean we should be losing at home against hungover Villa players. Multiple things can be correct at the same time.

True but come on, today is basically a testimonial

 

[WallyA]

Unfortunately showing why Rico can't make it anymore.

He can't go up and down, vital for fullbacks.

 

[Dax777]

Commentators saying defeat today will stain Peps legacy

Lol

 

[Blue Tooth]

Have you paid for a ticket?

No. I am at work. If i was there I would give no fucks. You give all the fucks you want pal.

 

[TFC]

I know the result is really immaterial here, but still getting on my tits. Come on City ffs

 

[RobinHood]

I hear you but not his goalscoring element.

 

[TinFoilHat]

No idea why bring rested, has the entire summer off hasn't he

My concern is that this is the farewell game for most of the team that started. Which means Jimmy is off.

 

[mancityscot]

Wasn’t really the most competitive team we put out today. Result so far is not a surprise

 

[bluemoonste]

Kova and Reijnders lazy bastards jogging back ! Yet still they're quicker than Dias !

 

[IrishBloodEnglishHeart]

Very classy by the Villa players, by the way. I suspect that gesture came on instructions from Unai at half-time.

What happened mate!

 

[East Level 2]

The result is literally irrelevant. All that matters is Stones gets what Bernardo got and pep gets what he deserves.

From another who hasn't paid to be here.

 

[bluestevei]

what is it with us winning at HT and then the other team plays us off the park in 2nd half, hope next season we have 2 good halves and not 1
