Bournemouth (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

This has been on the cards for a while this season with the way the team has been asked to play by pg & his coaching staff with highline defending .
Teams are cutting through us far to easily on the break.
We just need to play with commonsense defending has a team.
No excuses with the injuries, just get on with it & bounce back.
 
I think we've been playing on high revs for the last 4 years or more. It's not possible to maintain that level with the same group of players. We've not had a crazy amount of injuries until this season. The law of averages has kicked in.

Pep and his team will know whether the players are at 90% right now. We've been on an incredible run.

If we can get to the international break with no more defeats and then stop specific players being released for pointless international games, we can then come back refreshed and ready to push on.

I remember when Kevin Keegan was in charge in the PL we could never win 2 games in a row. During our darker days we could not even win a game. So, we need perspective, we are 2nd in the PL, we are a well run club and I am sure we'll be back to winning ways very soon.

Remember, Real Madrid got pumped recently. That sort of thing has not happened to City in recent times.

Come on City.
 
I agree with most of the comments made so far. We have had it good for so long now that when we get days like today it leaves you feeling frustrated. I too think the team looks disjointed at times. We dont seem to link up with Haaland and utilise hus strengths and at times he looks disinterested. Gundo also looks a shadow of his former self and Walker looks like his time is coming to an abrupt end. However, one thing I have learnt with Pep, is to never underestimate him....remember our treble year? Many fans, including myself were frustrated by how we wre playing and it wasnt really until February that we started turning things around. That season turned out alright! This team and manager will come to its end in the near future and then we will need to embrace a new team and style. Until then, Im happy to cheer on 'the boys in blue' and hopefully Pep can work his magic one more time!

We've had it good for the last 13 years or so, Especially the last 4 years have been beyond what we ever imagined. The last four years of fighting until the very last day of the league along with numerous cup finals and champions league finals look to have taken it's toll on us this season.

That result today has been coming since the start of the season, We've always dug in and got the wins or draws out of games and it could have been the case today even though we wouldn't have deserved it but we could and should have got a point.

We all know the Matchday Thread (Well most of us do) is like, Embarrassing...Along with numerous posts on this thread. I've absolutely hated the Rags since day one because of what they stand for "Entitled Cunts". Unfortunately we've numerous Blues going the same way, Abusing players along with "we shouldn't be getting beaten by Bournemouth" bullshit.

We lost a game of football, Get it over and catch a fucking grip. Part of me wishes we were down in Division Two again just to avoid listening to this bollocks.

I agree with a lot of that. It always hurts to lose a game.

The team needs to evolve again because that’s football. Stand still get left behind.

I find it hard to criticise the club but over the last 13 seasons standards have been put in place that have seen us reach the pinnacle of world football.

We ain’t little city anymore so when people complain it’s not so much as entitled but a realisation that we ain’t as good this season for a whole ton of reasons.

The best thing we can all do is revise expectations. Trust the club to make the right decisions and enable us to stay in our lofty position as the dominant force in England. That’s not entitled nor ungrateful but a result of 13 years hard work.

We all need to go again. Football dosent stop and dosent care what we did last season nor the one before.

We need to find away to win games again. Start with not conceding early. Stop playing Gundo and kova together.
