Phils been awful too.. need to demand the ball more

He needs a rest I think. He's put a hell of a shift in recently.

This must be one of the weakest seasons in PL history. We’d be struggling for top four in stronger campaigns.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Who could we bring on that would improve us ?

Vinny

Everyone wants too long on the ball

Been thinking that.

When we moved the ball quickly, going through the passes, we scored! The rest of the time it’s been ‘right, I’m going to hold onto this and see how long it takes for someone to tackle me and me lose it’ haha.

I see our regular doom mongers living down to expectations. I can't understand why they support City (if they actually do), when they seem to get no enjoyment out of watching us. I'd be fascinated to see what they were like back in the 90s.

 

[dubblue]

Has to square that for a tap in!!!!

 

[Gazza]

Let's face it, during the game Pep is actually mad.

 

[Blu1]

We’re in a transitional period…….so I’m told

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Should have played in Haaland there!!!!

Marmoush? For all his downfalls, he does work hard and he makes very good runs.

 

[Ajm1985]

Unlucky, good play

 

[urban genie]

khus and Ake on for Tuanji and Berny
push Nunes and ORielly up and Cherki/Foden central

 

[malg]

Wow. Haaland not happy there

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Much better passage of play.

 

[stan bowles]

That's fine...not confrontational or overly aggressive. Nothing wrong with that at all.
