Falcao & Cavani - Update Thread

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

As an outsider:

Striker is not your issue. Think that was pretty evident today.

a striker is our problem as ours arent scoring

We have no width and no target men...Mancini's system this year has been sussed, We need a few wingers and a Cavani

When your strikeforce consists of Aguero, Tevez and Dzeko.... I'm sorry but you ZERO right to complain about your strikers... That's literally one of, if not THE best strikeforce in football.

Your problem is in your midfield. It's hard to pinpoint who, or how, because on paper your mid is very strong... but on paper doesnt mean shit as we can see.

It's either the system isnt working as well as it should, or the players in the midfield just can't gel.

BUT, if I was running the show in City, Id be dissecting the midfield under an atomic microscope and figuring out what's wrong...

Cuz a strikeforce like that, sure as hell can't be the issue.

Or, if it's a target man you're after... our Pazzini has 15 league goals this season. I'll gladly swap Aguero for him bahahahahahaha

On paper we have some of the best strikers in football.

In reality, they're not.

Creating chances isn't our problem, finishing said chances is.

When I watch a City game, what I notice most of all this season is the lack of opportunity INSIDE the box... seems like too many shots and chances are coming from too far out, you're finding it difficult to penetrate the box.

Im wondering if, due to tactics, it's because you guys seem to hold up ply far too long... guys like Nasri, who I admire, seems to stop play allowing defenders to crowd the box.

It's the lack of shooting in general that costs us.

I agree. Remember Yakubu, anywhere near goal and he would take the net out. Somebody in that ilk would be great.

I totally agree. We find the defence packed all the time. Yet when you see goals of other games highlighted strikers have room to spare.

We play pedestrian, slow, tippy tappy football with zero pace, width and urgency. By the time we get anywhere near the box the opposition have fully recovered their shape and can just stand there making it impossible to breakdown. We need width, proper width not just using the fullbacks. Width will drag defenders out of position and leave gaps making it easy to silva and nasri to get into space and do something creative
