Match Thread | Man City vs. Burnley (31/01/24)

I've noticed that the ref has been pleasantly and surprisingly un-noticeable.

 

[Haaland94]

There is a player in Nunes. Boy has an engine. Really intrigued to see his development. Has a chance to be special.

Raw, but with an extremely high ceiling, IMO.

 

[Bigga]

Sure. any team would miss KDB because he supplies so much when he's on form. He's one of the best playmakers and goal suppliers in the world. But doesn't take away that Julian has been weirdly absent in recent times. He's no Sergio.

Haaland is more absent on the pitch than Alvarez ever is.

He's scored 2 goals and this is the critique you have?? Would you say the same of Haaland in the same situation?

Odd observation.

Nice 2-0 without really breaking sweat. Need foden middle.

They're all depressed after the Klopp news

Oh don't - even tonight I heard a dipper on 5Live going on about their "bereavement" - how hes is a man of the people who gets and their city and their ethos. No mention of the fact he has decided to cut and run of course.

has anyone seen Kompany without a baseball cap in like last 2 years?
he even sleeps in it.

It keeps him Kompany.

 

[SamBlue]

Foden is really making that pitch wide!

Grown men in baseball caps look like cunts, hides the dome glare i suppose for the baldies amongst us

Chelsea denied a clear penalty…welcome to Anfield

I think i may be wrong about Nunes.

I thought his best position would be deeper next to Rodri but Im seeing a player with that eye for a pass that kevin has, combined with a marauding ability to run forward, there is something special there.

The 10 might be the better position for him, unfortunately for Phil, being stuck out wide, but this current setup requires him there.
