Usual motd shit takes, expected this city performance after breaks. It surely affect their rhythme and match fitness.

KDB and Grealish really sluggish in the first half.

I thought KDB was busting a gut to close their players down.

 

[wolviedinho]

getting results whilst not playing our best……..

I will reserve judgment until we play Brentford.

Playing not at our best and winning is great. Tho it could be the start of a dodgy period. Last season towards the run in we played awful and paid the price against the chavs.

Not a pretty watch.

it’s starting at the back. Ake must have been on glue before kick-off because positionally he is all over the show. Stones is failing to engage at all (not sure if that’s because he is worried about where Ake is). Let’s not have this CB partnership again Pep.

Fern is being hung out to dry by his fellow midfielders, he can’t control the middle on his own anymore. KDB and Gundogan have to appreciate this and can’t only come alive when we have possession.

First 10 mins I thought Mahrez was going to have a field day. Then disappeared.

Grealish needs a rocket up his arse. 1st season, be patient and all that but come on lad, fucking show us something. Spending too much time arguing with opposition players instead of concentrating on putting in a performance.

Overall we have had very little control of the game, but we are in front. It’s got to be better in the 2nd half.

Bit sloppy but to be expected play Fulham are very good side on the ball we press to much we will be fucked and play into Fulham’s hand second half think we will press a bit more.

Mother time on Dinho, what a servant though…

Need a definite replacement of quality, please god not rice, especially after that embarrassing celebration today

Agree, not a criticism of Diniho but him a Gundo don't work.

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

Looks like what i expected, tempo and rythym clearly missing after a long break. Solid enough. Class soon come.

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

Walker getting foolishly booked with a matter of seconds to go. Shows you how frustrated we are. Fernandinho just hasn't got the legs anymore and to me its a crying shame to see him like this. Too many poor performances 1st half, and I hope Pep tells them some home truths about that ist half performance.

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

28 pages on a Matchday thread and 3 goals scored with us going behind - something ain't right. If this was a league game, this would be 60+ pages.

Is it televised at all in the UK? Might explain why, if it isn't.

Respect to Fulham they are a good side we just need to up our game a bit to get the result
