Match Thread | Man City vs Club Brugges (03/11/21)

Too slow. Too predictable. A serious rethink needed as it seems that even the thoroughly mediocre sides at home and abroad have now well and truly sussed this Plan A

Bloody awful stuff, come on City

We need pace badly in this team.

Teams aren't scared of being ran past, Foden's the only attacker on the pitch for us with some sort of pace and he's hardly Sane or Sterling.

Probably that if we take Cancelo out of this side we don’t have a single player who looks to try and create something? We have a bunch of midfielders and wide men who can’t beat a man or play a killer ball. Cancelo is hit and miss with his passing but at least he tries to be progressive.

I’m more concerned about two wide men who are practically a mirror fucking image of each other and haven’t beaten a man between them all season and Gundogan who currently is offering nothing.

Take Cancelo and Foden out of this side and we don’t have a player left who will pass forwards.

Trouble is foden is completely marginalized playing the 9.

My thoughts exactly, he got the “screw city” memo before the match.

He's got "screw City!" on his fucking fridge!

 

[Burtonblue]

Our defending is really concerning.
Far too easy to get into our box for them.
Ederson looks low in confidence and was at fault for their goal. He’s completely rooted to his line these days….

2 goals scored and that bent ref blows exactly on 45 mins

Never forgive this cnut for sending Pep off vs the dippers after asking for an explanation for Sane's goal being disallowed

 

[Mr HJ]

If Kyle has a knock put Zinny on and move Cancelo to the right - we will need Kyle's pace at the weekend. Mahrez needs to do more but overall credit them for pressing so much. Unlucky with the own goal but hopefully space will come as they tire later in the game.

 

[blue moony]

Apart from his goals and assists ?

He had a purple patch !

Jesus should just play in home games - we look like we’re crying out for a striker at the etihad. Torres was doing well in our home games and he played like an actual 9.

foden should be on the left too - grealish has been poor again.
