Match Thread | Man City vs. Fulham (05/10/24)

Our signings in the last 2 windows apart from Gvardiol have not been good enough. Our wingers look so poor when compared with Bayern and Real Madrid

Our wingers look poor when compared to Sane and Sterling never mind Bayern and Real

I hate being negative but I said this after the Arsenal game..

The problem isn't the other teams tactics.. its our team.

The opposition looks younger, faster, hungrier while our midfield looks slow, tepid, uncreative and older. We need a midfield refresh.

At the moment we got a lucky goal and so did they but they should be 3-1 up!

Should be red lights flashing in Txiki's office.. something has to be done in January!

Seems to be arrogance, a small aging squad combined with our massive bank balance

No excuse now not to heavily invest.

It’s time for a serious midfield overhaul.

I love the players we have but football dosent stand still.

Unlike the midfield? :-)

Just seen the highlights of the first half, looks like we are lucky to be drawing. Hopefully 2nd half will be a different story.

Oz adverts at half time on my stream - weird world down there

Optus Sport via buffstreams by any chance?

Wouldn’t mind 2 new CM next season.

The problem is we keep buying midfielders that aren’t good enough. Some on here talk about Nunes having “something” and “just needs time”. No amount of time is going to turn him into KDB, Foden or prime Gundo level. We keep buying players that are only useful for resting others. It’s a recipe for disaster.

You said the results bear out how shit we are without rodri. They don't though tbh.

I agree, we would still be “nearly” this shit, even with Rodders.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Poor first half.

Shambles at the back and uninspiring going forward.

Pessimistic about whether this improves 2nd half…

Not a bit like you !

yep -- viprow though

We haven't been at our best, but Fulham are just about done. We'll get two goals in the 2nd half I think. FT 3-1 City.
