Otamendi has been alright

 

[remember arthur mann]

I am a Zinchecko fan, but as soon as Mendy rounds into form, he's our left back.

One's a thinking footballer, one's just a push and run !

Fair enough. Walker has incredible pace but I believe Cancelo will offer us more from an attacking perspective.

It won’t happen but I’d like to see Foden introduced early in the second half.

And Walker is quick, don't get me wrong - I meant the sort of short burst/acceleration from a standing position. That's one of the most destabilizing tools to have in your locker - it leaves defenders scrambling to not be left without cover. But as others have commented, he tends to cut back into the middle rather than create width - which will madden Pep if he doesn't mix it up enough

 

[Kompany is King]

Rodri top class.

Cancelo is clearly being instructed to sit back. That is affecting Mahrez who is getting less ball and when he does it congested.

We have gone down the left and very central and that is by design. Pep trying something different. It’s worked. At the end of the day you can’t coach people to take chances, and we’ve had a fuck load of them.

Couldn’t give a a fuck cos we’re all pissed up MCFC ok

COME ON CITY!!!
Message from Pep would be put the ball in the netty thing.

The more I see that handball the more my blood boils with these bent bastards. There is no way we will be allowed to win this competition.

Which is why I have very little interest this year. More than any other year. It just seems so obvious.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Justification to boycott the corrupt bastards that are ‘UEFA’ has me feeling comfortable with the decision..... fall in love with it?? Reminds me of my ex Mrs, sexy on the outside, sinister on the in!

 

[twosips]

I can't believe people can't see what Mendy brings.
