Match Thread | Man City vs Leicester Comm Shield (07/08/21)

Why are people in here losing their shit over a charity shield game.
Jeez some weak fans in here.

Bit of a shambles game. Palmer has been impressive though, looks like he belongs out there. Edozie doesn't look good enough, and there's been sloppiness from most of the senior players. Interested to see Mendy playing that almost false-midfielder role that Cancelo enjoyed last season. Not doing too badly, I don't think.

Best hope is that we can just nick a scrappy goal and hope Leicester don't put away one of their chances - I don't feel like it means much when it's Leicesters strongest XI and our B/C team.

90 min Grealish winner! It’s happening

Then kiss the badge during his celebration

Putting 4 past Blackpool and Preston doesn't prepare you for facing a near full strength Leicester at Wembley on national tv. We're doing ok all things considered albeit looking quite rusty.

Hi EB nice to see you posting hope you’ve had a good break from the mayhem

Hi, thanks, yes I’m looking forward to being back at the Etihad on the 21st but I doubt there will be any away matches this season unfortunately! Great to see the ‘old’ hands posting for the matches. :-)

Just said to Leicester fan in my boozer after that save it'll be a 97 min winner off Mendy's arse.

I will take that too! Lol

I'll take 0-0. We're second best out there by some way.

Could itv not find any blues for the panel, poor show

Could have hired you and gave us all a break on here; )

We've not even been that bad. Leicester can be a fantastic side and they're showing it at times. Some of their play has been very sophisticated, and they're opening up our wide defensive areas well.

You're going to have a busy season ahead :)

Tell me about it.
