[Scottish Cityzen]

Watched that half with a smile on my face.

A proper City performance with quality, energy and a good dash of exciting play for good measure.

AND there’s a barrow load of talent on the bench. Exciting times ahead blues.

 

[big gaz]

I seem to have the Yank Gary Neville on my commentary

He's mentioned professional fouling and Rodders in the same sentence repeatedly

Haha I have two Arab guys, they're top, no idea what they're saying but they love the game.
GNISAC ;-)

When a cross comes in there is nobody cunning in unless it’s a Juve player!

Overall very good first half from City.

 

[wattle]

Both fullbacks capable of playing on the overlap or coming inside, so we can rock up to any team and mix it up depending on what we think will work best, Doku/Sav or Cherk/Foden or a mix

Personally don’t think we can find a better suited right back than Nunes, he’ll make the position his own this year

Agreed. Thought before he played there that he’d be pretty suited to right back. Then thought he was terrible when he did play there. Now I can totally see it. Playing with better players and on form players helps tremendously

 

[bluemoonste]

And drop Akanji.

He's too slow in his passing n decisions, this City team is moving on quickly so he's gotta up the pace

 

[Odd socks]

Has anyone got it working on IPTV yet?

Yes UK football, 1st feed and the coms love us

 

[Cobwebcat]

Feel we need a third here.

 

[Djibrilshairdo]

Rag arselickers have gone early with a Tonali..

 

[Eaststander1]

DAZN app is a pile of shit. Freezes at least once a half.

Hasn't frozen once on mine ...

 

[madloaf]

Feel we need a third here.

And a fourth. And a Fifth.

Would be my first choice to sell. Guess he is lucky that he can be the RB backup to Nunes if we don’t get one.

Dias and Gvardiol when full strength

 

[TinFoilHat]

At the risk of upsetting the traditionalist I love the strip we’re playing in today.

Me too.

Would happily see us wearing that at the Swamp/Emirates

 

[bluemullet]

Excellent from everybody
Rodders rusty & sloppy Ederson but very good team performance.

Doku superb & Bernardo is everywhere

Working as a team with energy

I agree Rodri is rusty but to be expected. For me one of the best things we will get from this tournament is getting mins in his legs.

 

[heslops barnet]

Late back out for second half?

 

[Silva_Spell]

Played well. Should be up by more than 1 tho.
Even well below sharpness, Rodri makes such a difference

 

[madloaf]

DAZN app is a pile of shit. Freezes at least once a half.

Think that's just how we play...shit, that joke doesn't work today!

 

[Centurions]

particularly if you like lots of floating yellow DAZN Premium ad banners obscuring the ball

I'm not getting that, perhaps one in the first half.

I have got the Surfshark ad blocker (cleanweb) running, don't know if that's stopping them.

 

[I'm Blue]

COME ON CITY!!!
Get a third early and chill.

Viking would be there
