City v Arsenal post match thread

[The perfect fumble]

Pipe the fuck down the lot of you, ffs get a grip.

Spot on. When fans of other clubs call us entitled, I know straight away they know fuck all about us, we're many things but we're definitely not that....

Blue moon...

Would you have turned your nose up at him coming to city We hardly look like a team full of goal-scorers

We finished topscorers in the league last year and have added Nolito, Sane & Jesus

Just don't know what has to happen for us to get rid of Kolarov. I'm convinced if there was a nuclear war and all life on earth was wiped out he'd still turn up at the Etihad on Saturday to play.

Kolaroach ?!

Its a pre-season game so its always difficult to analyse it fully, but I think its pretty obvious that this team still carries the same issues that have plagued us over the past 2 seasons and Pep has a big job on his hands.

Granted we've added a lot of depth to the wide positions and we are fine in the number 10 position - Glaring weaknesses are STILL left back, central defence without Vinny and midfield. Back up to Aguero is an issue but not an alarming one as Kalechi always seems to produce when played.

I would argue that we are heavily reliant on both Gundogan staying fit and Yaya coming back a lot leaner - as Fernandinho is literally the only central midfielder we could truly rely on last season. Again, any injury to Sergio (which sadly happens at least once every season) and were also going to be short up top.

Stones is a must.

Think we need two ball playing centre acts

i would imagine we will press more when its a competitive game. add in the team will be different

I sincerely hope we would be playing as we mean to now, not waiting for the season to start

i think tosin has been one of our best players pre season. i think people have no patience anymore. he's 18 and will only get better

This passing out the back scares the shit out of me, over played it a few times and they nearly score from it. I was shouting at the TV kick the fucking thing lol

It does me too, primarily because were not used to it and tbh, not very good at it atm. I'm sure we will persevere and it will come good. The $64000 question is though, how long will it take?

Still don't understand why Denayer didn't get any game time today. Guardiola really mustn't fancy him if he's playing Kolarov and Fernando there ahead of him.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

You'd be right if wasn't for the fact you're wrong.

We evidently watched a different game

Can't believe what I've read on here tonight.

One of the most promising centre backs in the country , an inexperienced 18 year old, should never wear the shirt again, and we should resign Kasper Schmeichel.

How some of you survived the wilderness /shite years is totally beyond me (that's if you were even around then of course)
