Claudio Bravo - 2016/2017 performances (continued)

[Bill]

Myth? All them trophies I've seen him win over the past decade are just a figment of my imagination?

yeh it reads well doesn't. I'm only surprised he didn't take the Celtic job.

Ridiculous comparison, as you well know.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

There's lots of slow,backward passing, so presumably it doesn't count, but the Official Site is currently highlighting Aguero's goal against Hull, where every City player touches the ball in the build-up (although not surprisingly Clichy's touch was the original throw-in)

One of Bravo's touches required vision, confidence, and speed of execution, which Hart and Caballero don't possess.

Agree with your point re Bravo.

But have to pull you up on the Clichy dig, he touched the ball 3 times in the move and it was his pass into the centre to find Yaya which gave the move attacking impetus.

100% correct mate.
I've never been a fan of scapegoating players, or refusing to criticise my favourites, but that was before I joined Bluemoon.

Haha, this place will do that to you alright.

What a shit comment.

 

[BillyShears]

wait a minute. what about Pep's famed attack policy? why not do it whilst er attacking? he plays on the front foot in defence and the back foot attacking. make your mind up gaffer. I know, lets try it my way. defend properly then see where it gets us up front, you never know we may win a title .... or two.

anyway going off topic.

carry on.

Another series of shit comments.

It's frightening just how thick people can be on here. Sounds like he is to fans, what Tony Adams is to managers. He'd be loving it if Big Sam was in charge.

Won't get a peep out of him this time next season mind.

I think it's a bit out of order to call people thick because they have a very different view of what they see happening at City at the moment. I doubt there will be many people much happier than Bill if we are absolutely brilliant next season but I'm guessing that's the whole point, he's presumably not convinced that is going to be the case. I have some similar concerns, the way we defend really worries me and I'm not totally convinced Pep will sort it out either. He might, he might not, time will tell but I don't think it makes me some kind of idiot for thinking that just as I don't think you're an idiot for just assuming we will be incredible.
