United will wipe the floor with us next week if we play like that

Only saving grace is that Lewis won't be playing, and hopefully Akanji is fit

Well done blues.

I'll post before the rags and dippers and city-fans-for-2 years start creating havoc with their wum posts and entitled posts.

Great point. Could come in handy come the end of the season. After not winning in 7 games it's just baby steps for a while. We're dead on our feet, half the team not fully fit yet we've picked ourselves up and won 1 and drawn 1.

Told you this season will be tough, we need to be patient and look at the bigger picture, something most on here forget to do.

Well done boys.

I’m getting fucked off at the players who are constantly injured. Stones, Akanji, Ake it’s becoming a joke at this point. We can’t build any momentum cause we’re changing the team every fucking match. Take the draw and move on. Big week ahead

The worse part is that Lewis red card means Walker plays next week.

 

[wolviedinho]

Only Juve, rags and Villa next.

Very poor again.

Can’t pass the ball, get caught out in the non existent midfield.

Walker can’t pass and can’t defend.

Rico scored very good goal but again exposed.

Shell of a team.

More pain to come.

The ref is a prick.

The fall from grace is here and it’s awful to watch.

Poor recruitment for whatever reason is the main issue. Negligent from the club imo.

Looked at times like the players couldn’t give a shit.

Different match same issues evident.

Huge rebuild needed to get anywhere near previous standards.

 

[Roachy]

Gary Neville thought Rico deserved to go…..just as clueless as the ref.

What a prick he is.

Got away with that....so poor al around.

Gundo is done....he is actually a hinderance and keeps losing possession

Walker has never been able to defend crosses...he now cant defend full stop.

KDB isnt able to run....he can barely get past a jog....if he has time and space he as the magic in his boots but he aint going to get the time and space he needs...

Our midfield set up and individual players are leaving the likes of Dias (who is one of only a couple who had a good game) totally exposed.

Lewis is getting away with it (from the fans point of view) as he is from the academy but he simply isnt good enough - again like Gundo he is constantly giving up possession. His goal does nothing to change the overall picture.

The biggest issue is Gundo and Lewis and right back.....all need replacing asap.

Even Bernardo payed poor today - his giveaway that led to the second goal from the corner...


Play like that the rags will beat us convincingly with the amount of pace they have in midfield and upfront.....forget about the CL we need to focus on making sure we qualify for it next year

 

[Goldust]

If Grealish and Doku weren't fit enough to start, his only other options were McAtee and Simpson-Pusey. No manager would put either player in that lineup today

Wasn’t fit to start both played the other day, looked fine when they came on. Where as Bernado the poor lad looked absolutely spent. Add to that I wouldn’t have Rico or Kyle anywhere near this team, he needs to adapt, could of gone with a back 3 of Simpson Dias Josko.

 

[gaz76]

23 games left 13 points needed, reckon we will be ok.
How the ref could blow his whistle after 4mins and 4 seconds of injury time when there had been numerous times the ball was out of play, doku was one on one to go clean through

 

[ProofMCFC]

Fighting for top 8, don’t let langleyblue know he might blow his lid.
