Be more clinical this half City.

In 5 months time when we're 6 points above liverpool we'll look back on our small blip and how we'll laugh about it

Assuming Liverpool win their 2 games in hand we would be 18 points behind them. We would have to win 8 games and Liverpool would have to lose 8. Not likely

Yep. Just have absolutely no faith that we can stop any team scoring.

We rode our luck that first half but we live in hope. Our attacking play was good.

 

[Ajm1985]

Right. He is effective for progressing the ball up the pitch. He is a great dribbler but he progresses the ball through runs rather than passing which means he can't fill Rodri's role because when he progresses the ball he leaves a huge gaping hole behind him. He needs an effective holding midfielder beside him. He doesn't work in this system unless he holds his runs and stays behind the ball which when I judge his game is his primary job.

Completely agree

Maybe we turned sideways, then backwards, then sideways again, before heading forwards.

 

[wolviedinho]

Stop fucking half hearted pressing. It’s embarrassing

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Looks like a training game compared to battles we've had in the past with Leicester - particularly the one where VK scored the screamer. Thankfully they have dropped off from those days too.

 

[stan bowles]

Quite worrying that we could have been behind at half time, need to improve now.

And we could've been 3-0 up by the same measure.

Throw in 20 yards from where it went out?

Foden allergic to pushing the ball forward
