Match Thread | Man City vs Brighton (20/04/22)

i said earlier in the week that our lack of finishing could be the difference.....mahrez and gundogan should have have both scored and if thats one of the liverpool front 3 or 4 and both would have been in......the game would then be open and comfortable.....

Mahrez doesnt have a killer instinct in him...i know he is our top scorer this year but he is a soft touch in front of goal too foden and for a player with such sublime skill he should do better.

Issue is that no one on the bench changes this ...Grealish aint a goal threat nor particularly creative....Jesus...bags of energy but again finishing is a problem

For me if we need a goal in the last 20 mins he should throw delap on ....play him in the middle upfront ...he might be a kid but he at least is a finisher

Rodri and Gundogan are they on the pitch?

No fkn chance of that. Youths only get a few minutes per season in dead rubbers or against Dog & Duck sides.

If Delap hadnt been injured and had played a bit more to this point he might be an option but there’s no universe where you pin our title hopes on him as a halftime sub on the off chance he can find this level. It is unfortunately too late for that although I wish we had found him minutes more recently to have the option

Actually I think we've not been at it now for months. The odd stand out performance in amongst a load of meh performances tbh. Just more of the same this evening.

And several more of these performances before the season ends, we're far too predictable

Dias coming on for Ake what a stupid decision should of been someone that can offer something going forward

Ake looked to be injured at the end.

I will be worried if pep doesn’t make at least one sub. Jesus has to start 2nd half

and still dont score

We usually win by boring them to death.
