Haaland still out clapping city fans.

Welcome home erling

Yep. All the way round the pitch as well. Classy touch

Robbie Savage did my head in......
From 25 mins and EVERY 5 mins after saying he can't believe we hadn't had a shot on target. It'sall he said!
Then when 2-1 (think it was 87th minute) Silva had a shot saved.
Savage declares it was the first shot he'd save all game!

Commentary in Greek where I am. Probably made more sense.

Fast forward the first 70 minutes.

Thanks, I did watch the first half before I fell asleep! Wasn’t so much the boring game as just being tired after a long day!
Thanks for that though because now I can just do as you suggest. :-)?

Soon as we made them changes we went up 3 gears, harsh to say but Grealish is not at the same level as our other attacking players.

I said this the other day and got abuse. He’s nowhere near our level

I cannot believe Cancelo and Haaland did that when children were present on match day thread .

 

[Ajm1985]

I know what you mean. If you want a genuine answer, the one that sticks out for me was Leeds at home last year.
Maybe his job is to be part of the ‘softening up process’ for the first hour of matches? ;-)
When he cuts in, he needs to have the confidence to get his shot off quicker imho.

The two shots in quick succession were definitely blocked because he delayed

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Just home.

John Stones is still not a right back, but what a hit son.

Cancelo’s ball was footballing porn and Haaland is a freak.

Thought they defended well up until about 65 mins, when they were gassed and stopped trying to attack.

2 wins against Copenhagen and the group is done.

I expected a little more out of City so far this season but they've never been fast starters under Pep so I'm not too worried.

Also, I realize they haven't lost yet. I'm just surprised with how many they're conceding.

 

[Jesus2020]

Looks a bit like a fish out of water. Not his fault at all, but I'm not sure whether his strengths fit what we need

I still feel he offers something stats don't show as part of a team.

 

[Tokyo32]

Stole that. We were awful but result more important than game.

Again you can say we were not at our best but if dortmund won that game that would be a robbery.

They just came to frustrate us and try to nick a goal from a set piece or corner which they did.
