"Games over love. How about a quick gobble?"

Just need the best striker in the world back and the best player in the world back and we'll be close to having our strongest XI for the first time this season.

We'll still be shit ha

I know 2nd half was boring, but im not unhappy with that.

Our biggest problem this season is not scoring goals, its fucking up and gifting big chance after big chance.

Leicester only had 1 shot at 0.02xG. They were neutered on every counter.

Yes we should have scored more, but 2.5xG is good creating.

 

[MCFC1993]

2 players back and we’re world beaters….not

2 players and a couple more signings.

If Gonzalez is in our best midfield 3 next season then the summer will have been a failure. I think he’s going to be incredibly useful as a rotation guy, so Rodri can sit out easier home games, but no more than that for me. To compete we need to be pairing Rodri with players of the Wirtz and Bruno G level. If we don’t find those level of player to partner him then we won’t be competing for the big prizes, it’s as simple as that. Nico needs to be the 4th/5th choice midfielder. That’s the level that we need to take the squad to.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Good result. Easy day at the office really.

 

[Chak19]

he’s barely had to break sweat.

It's still 90 minutes, add in almost 90 minutes against Bournemouth, unless he's on the bench against the rags it makes no sense.

Trouble is most sides complain , argue in their favour , in the refs ear , we are so soft as a team we don't say fuck all

Gundog was telling him.

 

[heslops barnet]

Good game from Gundog, looks very comfortable at this pace of game

Once a season then?

 

[Legal Alien]

In the season we’ve had with defensive injuries it is insane that this is his first league start

Yeah we should've thrown him in when it was going tits up last year!
Gvardiol needed a rest and was out of form too, a strange one that!

 

[Rory Bluelow]

Good win but a painful watch - especially the dire second half.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

2nd half fizzled out.
Leicester are shite, but a win is a win.
Never in danger.

 

[Blueknows]

Gundog was telling him.

I'd have refused to take the free kick whilst pointing at the wall till he did his job

 

[Mr Grumpy]

A large part of this season.

Agreed.
I know it may seem arrogant to complain about a 2-0 win but it was a gash match.
I pity the Leicester fans paying money to watch their team give us the easiest match of the season.

Still. 3 points and no injuries.

 

[Mr Grumpy]

Good game from Gundog, looks very comfortable at this pace of game

Exactly.

 

[Aba452]

Yank commentary talking about Leicester long faces as it pans to van horse face ;-)

Anyone still awake? A much needed win against a terrible team who didn't even try to get a result. We still need to go up a few levels. Good to see Bobb back.
