Cheltenham Town (A) | Post-Match Thread

Won in the end . Foden was fantastic but it took gundo and cancelo to come on and turn it round but there was some cowardly performances out there tonight especially from Mahrez who when it was 3-1 started to do the tricks and enjoy the game well he should be ashamed of that performance and also Jesus needs to get his act together . because at the moment he is not on our level either . One thing it proved tonight aswell is that everyone clamouring to see him he likes of Doyle and Haywood bellis in the team need to face facts that they are nowhere near the he first team yet . Phil foden will become our greatest ever player I’m sure of it .

CTFC would give any Prem team a decent game. They defended tight and in numbers. The only thing they really lacked was the the link play.
It shows how well they were drilled, because we had to bring on Gundo and Cancelo and Dias.
THB and Doyle looked lost.
Mahrez can leave tomorrow if he takes Mendy with him. They were both below the acceptable level we need. Mahrez looks like he doesn’t give a shit. Mendy is just shocking.
Foden is an absolute joy to watch. We could have the greatest midfielder from England ina long time. His balance, vision and desire is something a lot of his fellow team mates could take guidance from.
Laporte looked comfortable and that will have done him good.
Gabby MUST start putting away these golden chances.
Huge respect to CTFC, I hope they push on in their quest for promotion.

Cornish - huge respect to all on here who have supported us and helped us through our season. Can't think of any other club who would have helped us out in such a way. Glad we gave you a game and glad the money will help us see the season out. All the very best
 
Foden was magnificent and had he not been playing I think we may well have lost.

Cancelo and Gundogan subs changed it. Both excellent.


The rest....average at best and that’s being kind to some.

Good cup tie though and well played Cheltenham.

Yep it wasnt that long ago the the pundits saying Phil needs to go out on load and get kicked from pillar to post, instead of learning of the world class players like Merlin. Now they are saying how well Pep has dealt with Phil's development. Two faced bastards !

Never going to be flowing football given team and how well Cheltenham played.

Mahrez with his shithousery at the end after that performance should see him fined, ducking embarrassing. Needs moved on in the summer.

Mendy - is going to be a mangala situation. But so be it.

Foden - just take a bow son. This kid will achieve everything in football. Looked terrific in the centre.

Overall enjoyed the game, thought I’d woken up in the 80’s/90s for the first 75 min

Well, Cheltenham gave us a great [gud’old] FA-cup tie. Credit to them. We didn’t play well but that was also due to them.

I enjoyed it. Really did. Obviously happy it didn’t end in an upset. But this is the charm of the cup competition. However there might be a generation on here that probably cannot understand that.

No harm done. Not drawing any conclusions towards players other than Foden is becoming pure quality.

Ha ha,fair enough.
I thought the 1st half was piss poor overall as a spectacle.

The 2nd half improved the excitement somewhat,due to Cheltenham scoring.

Can do without the headaches in future matches though please City.
