Match Thread | Man City vs Chelsea Champs League Final (29/05/21)

Can’t see us turning this around, sadly. Can’t see us scoring altogether. Chelsea are too solid at the back and will sit even deeper in the second half now looking to counter us

Showing the goal on BT, crap from Zinny I'm afraid

 

[Silvaguerro]

De Bruyne been worse than Foden

He never plays well with gundogun. The problem is Gundogun, just a slow sideways passing player

 

[Manchester_lalala]

That defending for their goal was fucking awful. Stones, Walker, Zinchenko all poor.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Subs wise, I wouldn’t even give it 15 mins. I’d change it now

 

[Homar]

We didn’t get to the final playing like this. We’re far too offensive. We don’t even play this offensive in a league game. None of those midfielders want to do their defensive duties. Chelsea are in on our back line every single time we lose the ball in the midfield.

Chelsea want to counterattack, and we’ve made it easy for them. Gundogan doesn’t have the pace to protect that back four even if he wants to. We desperately need some steel in that midfield.

 

[DTKOAG]

Gundogan isolated just like Rodri was in the league game.
Cannot work out why Rodri or Fernandinho is not partnering Gundagon as expected.

 

[GazM]

Need a bit more control in the middle. Foden left.. Sterling not sure but start putting in more effort and stop whingeing at the ref. Pep why change things...you know the best team.

 

[depps]

You were saying??

I never said they wouldn’t score before we did!

seriously though, I’m totally calm here. We are definitely the better side, but they have caught us on the counter a few times.
We will win this. Chill.

Stick to coaching, leave the team sheet to us fans we certainly know better than him.

Haha, we couldnt do any worse so far tonight
