Owen Hargreaves is a fucking moron. His only opinion of what he's watching seems to be "City need to get the ball into Haaland quicker" - must've said it twenty times.

Brilliant Owen, marvellous insight.

He's got a point. He's a boring **** though ...

The money we paid for Grealish surely he’s got to offer more

That’s not really how it works. Ffs.

Fuckin blast em Pep. Lazy cunts. Rodri is injured so you need to pick up the slack. Walking about like fuckin pop stars.

 

[paulchapo]

We're sadly now a bang average side, quite a drop from the levels we were at.

Haaland is an incredible goal scorer, but he’s actually shockingly shit at actually playing football.

It’s genuinely amazing.

And I love him.

Barbed compliments are the way forward on this thread

Controvertial but if we could get 150 for Haaland I would cash in and look for a striker who actually fucking works off the ball. Love him but he is one lazy twat

What exactly are you expecting from him? You cannot seriously be expecting a 6ft 4 giant to be aimlessly chasing the ball like a Tevez or Alvarez? Despite the fact its not physically possible for somebody like him to do that, It serves no purpose, wastes energy and puts him out of position. Aguero didn't work as hard as Haaland does, should we have cashed in on him too?

Right, good positive start to the 2nd half please

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

We're about as exciting as a cold bowl of school dinner tapioca.

 

[Haaland94]

Just tell them they will have to play in Astana next season in -18C temperature if they carry on like that.

That was fucking well boring. Hopefully we kick it up a gear. Look scared of losing - both teams do - rather than going for a win.
