'All Or Nothing' - discussion of documentary

[jrb]

Jose and United fans are biting like f***! :-)

Try setting up subtitles Mate, I was the same.

Hahaha will do, I was thinking more of what the players made of it all? How on earth do they understand him?

I never tire of seeing that Ragette in the red cardigan clapping United winning the title at Sunderland only for Aguero to ruin her day.

Me neither.... I was there. .. Poznaning minutes later

Just watching episode 7 now; not an easy watch. But loving Deplh in the dressing room after the derby. Not a happy camper!

Anyone who's worked with a scouser or geordie will tell you when you're around someone like that every day you learn what they mean a few times and then your mind fills in the blanks. He's probably repeating messages he's said more clearly and calmly before as well.

I liked that he was so pissed off but I think it reflected poorly on him that after a year in our first team he still thinks running harder, winning individual battles is the difference maker - like Pep said it's bollocks.

Oh the irony.

They must have advertised full on berties and that’s what we ended up with. Jonny Marr too talking about musicians. All a bit small time but many of our fans are still of that level. They’ll get there in the end

Even though we didn’t run and track runners for the goals, losing markers and them individual battles.........

I think i'll go with Pep's analysis of the problem rather than yours & Delph's, if that's alright, he seems to know what he's doing.

Just finishing off episode 8, and the tributes to Toure. But TWO FA Cups?

I would too, my point being to say it refectled on him poorly is a bit ott wouldn’t you say? His job isn’t tactics and analysis. As a player involved in watching team mates not follow runs and concede goals you can see his frustrations in saying “we stopped running” he may be right, he may be wrong, reflected poorly? Do me a favour

Pep has said loads of times he wants them to run for each other and win first and 2nd balls,that is on record in the MNF he did and many post match pressers,fabs may have put it bluntly but he wasn't wrong

Alternate reality, we beat Wigan.

Couldn’t bring yourself to quote me and agreeing ;)

Just finished number 8. Highly enjoyable. But I need to find the fucker who was chopping onions when Dave came on with little Mateo.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

I think pep was very wary not to piss off yaya, who was talking some shit about physicality (basically implying he should have played), so he shut Delphi down. A lot of what he said was spot on - we shat ourselves and froze. We stopped pressing, we fell to pieces. I think what Delph was trying to say was that our heads went, and we needed to focus and regain composure, but obviously he was too fucked off to get it across at first, hence the "we stopped running" - whereas what he meant was that we stopped pressing - "if we stop pressing we're fucked" - which is spot on.

As a city fan it’s essential viewing obviously. It’s good enough to keep you watching. And maybe watch again.

But overall I wanted a bit more from it. Realistically it’s a season review dvd with a few extras. Whilst amazon clearly had access all areas I think the club vetoed what could be shown. A few scenes show Pep talking to players at the white board but from behind it so it was out of view what exactly he was telling them.

Given it was 8 episodes I’m not sure we learnt that much we didn’t already know. And fair enough it’s not really made for City fans more as a sporting documentary anyone can watch but take the game footage out that is fans already know and you aren’t left with that much. The dressing room stuff is a great insight but makes up maybe half an hour in total. The Silva with Mateo video whilst amazing was released already.

The fan interviews didn’t really add to the program. Two women talking about how the sterling song used to be Lescotts and whether they miss him. Didn’t see the point.

Some gold in there, a lot of what we knew already and a bit of meh.

7/10 overall

In the first episode showing the depth of the squad, there were 2 names on their list of CB targets that were censored. I can see that the first one is Laporte, but can anyone else see who the other one is?

Anyone know who the guy is in episode 8 in the changing toom that has his face censored. He's also on stage at the parade and again has his face censored
