He would be offside

He was born offside that lad

They play attractive football but are the most wasteful team in the league.

Yes and a good quality striker would stop some of the wastefulness as he’d be putting the ball in the net?

Does pep want to win this game or what

And the award for the daftest question so far goes to....

We look solid enough at the back, as you'd expect with three centre halves, but lacking creativity in the final third. Jesus is playing well, but Aguero and Torres look off the pace. Could do with Foden and Mahrez in the second half.

Thought it was ok in bits. Not as bad as I feared. I’m not sure what we learned though. Gabby playing well as us Bernardo. Hold it for 15 mins and then bring on the cavalry.

Some poor performances in a poor formation - he needs to change it at half time and put another player in midfield to get more control.

Mendy and Laporte look like an accident waiting to happen and the front three are offering very little.

 

[Eccles Blue]

Beam me up Scottie and down at Craven Cottage, there I shall put the thoughts into Marriner’s stupid fat bonce that Manchester City are allowed to have free kicks EVERY TIME they get fouled!!!

Well Magnolia is so 1980's...go for Dutch Ivory

Dutch ivory is illegal over here.
You need to go to Amsterdam to smoke it.

I was thinking during the Southampton game that we should play 3 at the back now we have 3 good centre backs and Cancelo would play wing back well.

I was wrong. Not really working.

It would work well if we played 2 strikers instead of 3 and had a man in the hole in the middle(kev). The problem is mendy and cancelo havent been finding the key passes in behind(wingback and wingers vs one fullback should make for easy balls in behind)...although cancelo has been by far the better out of the two.

Not new no. However I really am to it being this bad in comparison to our results. WTF is happening to our fan base on BM? Do we really think so little of this record breaking team that we must have 5-0 every game?

There is another team out there trying to stop us.

It’s a bit different to that.
A complete change in the setup that has served us all season has led to a 45 minute bore fest with no clear cut change or even a 5/10 minute phase of dominant attacking. Poor
