Far too predictable and boring, all teams will have us sussed very quickly if this style of play continues

recently most decent teams have…

Right, almost time for the 2nd half, big performance needed City and get back in the zone for Saturday

I still cant believe pep puts one of the most creative players in Jack to the side and gives cancelo the freedom of the pitch baffling! even a amateur coach would get that correct

 

[citytill1die84]

We scored one arguably off side goal ,conceded a sloppy bizarre goal and just generally run aimlessly about to no good effect. Will Pep sort it out???

Arguably offside? Lol

 

[IT and Me]

Too slow and overplaying in the final third. Add that to a few thinking they don’t need to work back/concentrate’coz we’re just better and you get the first half.
Pep will sort it. I’m going 5-1 or 6-1 because I like both those scores.

There dosent seem to be much love for cancelo on this thread, not sure why tbh, hes a decent player and is having a half decent game, ok he leaves a hole in defence when he bombs forward, but he creates a lot going forward, and we not the kind of team to sit back and defend

We in effect play a back 3 of walker stones laporte. Cancelo is told to go forward so its harsh for anyone to blame him for leaving gaps behind. This is a Pep decision. Apart from a couple of times when he should have released grealish I'm not sure he is the problem.

The Brugge lad is doing a good job on Mahrez and grealish is constantly surrounded. It's hard to break this down in fairness. We need to win this game.

We need a rethink tactically.

Seems the best teams now have pace, energy and power. We have zero of these but slow tippy tappy technical players afraid to shoot.

Lol, are we getting a bit spoilt

 

[jollylescott]

Get Zin on!

 

[hertsblue]

We are winning the possession trophy though

 

[Gray]

I want us to win every game we play, this competition though does nothing for me.
