Match Thread | Man City vs Bournemouth (24/09/20)

[Viking blue]

Exactly my summation apart from Walker has taken up some great positions but his final ball always straight at a defender

At least he’s having a go. Mendy doesn’t want to take any responsibility. Hope he proves me wrong in second half.

Not watching - how’s it going, is it going to be De Bruyne and Sterling to the rescue or are we doing enough to win?

Was it one shot/one goal as per usual for them?

I think we're doing fine. Sadly, yes it was 1 shot, 1 goal but that said it was a good one.

 

[Odd socks]

Think Rodri is putting a shift in.

Would love to see Delap playing with the first team at some point. Early days but he’s a talented player.

He’s playing with them right now

Of the two CBs THB has looked better IMO. We are going to be caught out again though as the line is a bit of a mess.

I know it’s a meme at this point to have a go at Mahrez but he’s one of my least favorite players to watch. Always 18 touches to go nowhere and make the same pass he could have made at 1 touch. He’s got plenty of skill and has obviously contributed but he slows everything down so much. Doesn’t help that his overlap is Walker who does many wonderful things but almost none of them with the ball at his feet

This is the first team.

Yep, we've had 76% possession and 7 shots, they had 1 shot 1 goal

He's an aggressive sod for sure, no chance of him being bullied.

Comrortable in the game, pathetic defending. Same as

Not just Foden — Rodri, Doyle, Mahrez, etc.

But, to be fair to all of them, not everyone of Torres’ runs were “passable”.

Still, Ferran was working throughout the half, and I think blues saying he was lazy are being very, very harsh.

It’s just very congested. Mahrez hasn’t been great but it’s understandable. I wonder if the other young lads will come on
