Match Thread | Man City vs Chelsea (08/01/23)

Isn't it nice to have a calm match thread, without the flappi over-reactions?

Haaland needs to be involved more. When you think of City over the past two years, the whole team has worked for each other, constantly moving. I think it’s tactical from Pep not making Haaland move to much, but we look better with Alvarez up top.

100% agreed. He has the fewest touches in a match playing for a team which has like 65-70. That is simply not acceptable for the way we play.

Best performance since the rags. No surprises it’s come with a younger dynamic line up. Brilliant, Get Erling on and bury them

Yep, no slow side passes, back passes, slow, slow…….play with pace and we beat any fukers…..

'better without Haaland' conversation intensifies..

Amongst idiots…

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Wait a second.. He was a player??

Allegedly, think his last meaningful game when he was about 24, before he bacame a fixture on the physio’s table.

When we play KDB and Haaland, we play like we HAVE to find KDB to find Haaland. When they’re not there, we look a threat from everywhere. Keep the deadwood on the bench! ;)

Erling could still have a hat-trick by the end of this.

Should play this side against the dirty, kick and hoofers next week.

That's a bit harsh on the Saints, innit?

;-)

It could get ugly for you

You understand the word ‘hubris’?

If we maintain or extend this lead up to the 75th minute and then make some subs with that bench, I think the away fans and team will down tools.
