[Colin Barretts bouffant]

Fuck me...shakin like a leaf and started smoking again...It's like the good old bad old days are back but 3 points and next please

 

[eyalluvitt]

Cherki was the right call, tbf. He was the only one capable of keeping possession.

Kind of the ying to Savinho’s yang

 

[Alexia_Ko]

How do you think Nunes did?

Poor but he was often 2v1 because Silva was never there

 

[Micky Blue]

Keegan was our manager tonight

I did on the whole enjoy the chaos and drama of the keegan era.
But 20 years on I feel my heart can’t take that anymore.

 

[chaddblue]

Defend like that in Madrid and they will humiliate us

 

[southamptonblue]

Can't be arsed reading through, as most will be about the defence.......our problems are still, as last season, the midfield, Nico is not near good enough YET, at least.....and some of the decision making and giving the ball away going forward, is beyond belief!
.....but we won ;) ......55 tomorrow, after that I feel 65!

 

[Sibierskii]

Not sure why Savinho is taking all the flak tbh. The whole team was a mess.

New around here?

 

[KingGeorge]

Savinho's play is really concerning. Doku struggled a lot in his early days here, but there would be patches where you could see the raw talent. I just don't see anything from Savinho. Hopefully he proves me wrong, but I am not confident he will.

 

[Brendan110_0]

Where did I say chuck the points away???

Cruising at .5.1 to clinging on to 5.4 is throwing it away IMO.

Not one side in the league would chuck away a 5.1 lead to within a single goal within the last 30 minutes.

Well come on, at least one side did :|

 

[plattlanebenches]

Still, where did the ball end up? Don't we always say shoot and hope for some luck? He's a fast skillful forward he's always going to make bad decisions it's how it works with wingers.

Yes but he made loads of bad decisions tonight.

 

[blue whippet]

Thank the lord that has ended but what the hell?
How can you go from being so far in front to hanging on for dear life in such a short space of time? What happened to the dense and midfield that second half?
Pleased for Haaland getting his 100th, good the Reijnders got on the score sheet and great that Phil continues his rich vein of form.
Three points, we will just have to keep telling ourselves that.
All the goals were pretty good though, for both teams. Can't imagine there will be a better game for the neutral to watch with a better collection of goals all season.
We need to improve though and play and concentrate for a full 90 minutes.

 

[Phoenix900000]

We've got Sunderland and then Real Madrid coming up.

So you are happy with what you saw??

Am confused mate

Cause from what am seeing especially in trying to get a win for Real and Sunderland we will struggle if we continue this path

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Did you watch the game?

A ball in the fucking nuts can do that.

Bernardo was still playing, along with Phil on 99 minutes.

I tend to agree that he went off due to ball ache.

 

[half & half derby scarf]

Foden faded a bit late on but I thought that was one of his best performances in a City shirt. Just need him to do it constantly.

 

[discopop]

Three games in seven days is taking its toll on a creaking back line, Kus apart there is fuck all pace in there, I think one of the reasons for the second half performances are the lads are a bit Mentally and physicality fucked and maybe just maybe Pep is as well.

 

[Shirley]

Need proper recognised fullbacks

 

[coolcity]

I’m aging far too much watching us now! They deserved a point we made the changes we suffered and please can we challenge second ball it’s easy against us now lump it forward get the second ball and put it in the box to score! Two wins that feel likes loses very odd

They didn't deserve a point, a couple of there's were hit and hope. The header for their first, just dived at it and it could have gone anywhere, same with a couple of their shots, 9 times out of 10 they don't go in. We also hit the woodwork twice. Admire them for having a go but that's all.

 

[argyle]

Real a week tomorrow could be our heaviest defeat for a long time. If Fulham can cut through us with ease, Real could have an absolute field day

Thats the spirit.

 

[.db.]

Well, at least it was more entertaining than 1-0.

Too right.

Football has been trying its best to bore eveyone to fucking death this season with all the long throw shit, taking ages to take corners and faking injuries, and probably going back ten years with that attack v defense bollocks with one team camped in their own box not even trying to attack.

I’ve been getting sick to death of the sport to be honest. I think football has been getting more and more boring each season.

Tonight is what football should be about!

That was what top rugby league games are like, when you get two teams just going for it. But it’s rarely seen in football, everyone is scared to death of conceding goals when the aim of the game is scoring them, the sport’s mindset is back-to-font.

I bloody loved that tonight!

 

[kevreeves]

Badly coached, unfit and disorganised and that's being kind! Some of those attempts at blocks and tackles bordered on cowardice! Silva stopping 5 yards away and turning his back, shithouse! We never win 50/50 challenges!
