Fulham (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

Best match of the season to watch. Impartial watchers will have enjoyed every minute. City and Fulham fans will have shared heart attacks throughout.

As Arsenal and Liverpool fans say every time they scrape a 1-0 win... that's how Champions win games.

Score at least one more goal than the opposition and take home all three points.

Onwards and upwards Blues!

No Cherki from the start

Replace our only CDM the only person that holds our midfield together and our Stones there in midfield in 2025 in the most intense game of the season.

We scored some nice goals but they scored even crazier and luckier goals. All outside the box. First time. They had 66% in the 2nd half. The stats say they only had 1 big chance. Only a 0.74 xG so they scored all their goals from freakishly low chances.Is that gonna happen every game noThey completed more passes than us. That hasn’t happened since the Arsenal game.And had more shots than usThey completely dominated us and we got away with the skin of our teeth.Haaland missed 2 clear chances to score. Could’ve been 7 for us.But that was still an awful performance. You shouldn’t need 6 goals to beat Fulham. Yes there was a great reaction especially in the first half but they lacked composure cohesion and single brain cell when it comes to keeping the ball and defending

I think our squad planning is gonna need some serious thinking. Can’t just throw money at it. Donnarumma weaknesss on the ball and in corners have to be covered up somehow. Pep doesn’t play Marmoush. He clearly doesn’t rate him. Ait Nouri won’t get a game. We spent 80 mil on young centre backs. One never plays the other on loan. Savio and Bobb do not have a place here. Reinjders has still had only one and a half good game. We’re not a few pieces from our old prime. We’re a far far away. When you think about it. Not much difference from this season to last season individual brilliance played a huge role this season. Nico G and Haaland playing out of their skin. And hoping Foden scores every few games. Our defence still isn’t good.this could’ve easily been the Chelsea 4-4 or Spurs 4-4. Gvardiol had to clear it on the line in dying minutes. 4 games in a row where Pep’s selection and subs come back to bite us.

I hope we make it out December within touching distance of 1st place

Agree about Marmoush

Same again, some magical moments and some nightmares.

I think the football we've played at times shows we definitely have the right players (on the whole), it's just a case of them getting some backbone when they need it. I would say we crumbled at times tonight, crazy stuff.

It feels like we were screwed by VAR again too but I've not seen replays of their offside goal. The whole thing around offsides and City seems weird at the moment.

We're missing the midfield general who can put his foot on the ball and marshall the team. We don't have one.

That's how I'll see it in the morning, I think. Too much of a headace at the moment. It can make you so ill being a City fan, I've been one for over 50 years, but when we were s**t, I don't ever remember feeling ill with the pressure of it all because there was none. Since our first PL win, sometimes the pressure is almost unbearable. Daft isn't it?

Sums it up perfectly

Moronic statement of the night - so far. But you'll have a few contenders before the evening's out.

Shouldn't need to spell it out but we're closer to the top than at any point this season.

Means nothing it’s December. We are waiting for pep to leave & it’s costing us. We might be closer to the top but we ain’t winning anything with this squad

Run that by me again in english please :)
Happy chapper hahaha

We won, mate!
We are 2nd in the league, the highest goalscorers.
What more do you want?
 
Pep got it right this time. I'd have been mad with him if he hadn't made subs with that lead and with big games ahead.

The subs were poor but what do you expect if you abuse the player? Some of our support are bottling it.
