Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Southampton (25/04/26)

Some cloth in them trews

 

[TueartsCossackSpray]

Well that was all rather low key. And when Bagpuss goes to sleep…………

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

And that’s why Marmoush hasn’t played as much.

It could also be a consequence bud.

 

[super_city_si]

Need to make changes at HT but won’t

 

[oldius]

If you are a fan of the favourite in the FA Cup, you can be certain of commentary and punditry that completely distorts reality in favour of the underdog. The lack of objectivity from the BBC team is exactly as expected and exactly why I switched it off.

A mediocre display from several players who have barely played - as expected.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Far to languid casual, team needs a rocket up their arseholes.

 

[WEMBLEY76]

Rooney needs a translator.

 

[PinkFinal]

What was that from Rooney ??

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

A combined xg of 0.27 says the BBC without saying Southampton’s xg is a big fat zero, nil, zilch, nada, rien, fuck all!

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Phil book a holiday- you've got all summer off.

 

[Blue2112]

Its fucking boiling hot here and the sun is right in our faces. Too much passing just fucking well go for it, just try it for 10mins at least and have a shot for gods sake city.

 

[Don Karleone]

Kick up the arse Pep

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Any type of pace from our bench kills them

Sad indictment when our best player hasn’t played for 12 months and those who have, have faces like slapped arses

 

[Longdarnit Blue]

So ..... the first half highlights reel looks like it's going to be about 15 seconds long.

Yep - the Southampton “goal”.

 

[Aba452]

Rooney and Richards add the square root of fuck all to anything, walcott not much better.

 

[spacecadet]

Yup Southampton have been the better team says Shearer. What a fuckwit. No shots on goal, 35% possession, and half the number of passes. Good footballer, but as thick as a gurkhas foreskin. All against City reserves.

 

[bluethai]

This has Wigan written all over it. There’s zero understanding, and the whole lot needs to change before we concede that sort of one-hit wonder goal again!

 

[WallyA]

Its too easy to low block us if we dont have 1v1 threat out wide.

Desperately need Savinho on, maybe sub Doku on at some point.

And in the transfer market we need to buy another 1v1 wide player next season and ship out Marmoush who doesnt offer anything.

 

[super_city_si]

It could also be a consequence bud.

When everyone looks shit that’s on the formation

 

[Bluemoonie92]

So fucking slow. Just hoping for a piece of brilliance to break down a deep defence. Has to be much quicker second half
