Match Thread | Man City vs. Man United (03/03/24)

[Spiderman]

They have been smarter than us. Our problem is not Doku it's Haaland and Kevin

 

[1961_vintage]

Totally lacking in ruthlessness in front of goal. It's like "oh don't worry about missing, we'll get another chance again soon".

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Feels like I’m watching us play Tottenham.

Rashford scored a wordie but fortunately he is sh1t because he could and probably should have had 3

How easy is that goal though. Punt upfront from the keeper. 3 seconds later it’s in the net. Same as Chelsea. We never learn. What are the defenders doing there?

 

[Lauz9888]

We're vulnerable to pacy attacks and we have been for ages. Wouldn't matter so much if we were free-scoring but we're not.

We need to hold the ball better in midfield and manoeuvre our attacking players into more and better quality shooting positions - and they need to capitalise on those situations.

xG
2.7 vs 0.19

and 1 shot on target =1 goal, Arsenal and Pool does not have this for some reason, our defending allows for this so many games

 

[Tricky_Trev]

How do you see a ball coming straight to your head and then try to jump and kick it in instead of just dipping your head about 10cm? Fuming.

 

[TinFoilHat]

The next couple of times Rashford touched the ball is the real Rashford .His one shot is the pinnacle of his career.

And will be replayed by Sky like the Shrek shinner for all eternity.

 

[Haaland94]

Watching that goal again I really don’t know wtf walker is doing

Nowhere near Rashford on the wing, and then Rashford cuts inside, again, nowhere near him. One of many for Kyle this season.

 

[SWPISHOME]

The title is on the line in this 45, we need 3 points for me today, we need to take chances, and stop the predictability, and the rags will score again

As stupid as it sounds that could actually happen as in the Rags scoring again...

We look so vulnerable to the counter attack over the last few months, Opposition have obviously found a chink in our armour, The other one is is how the fuck are opposition causing us problems from their own goal kicks lately...

Next goal is absolutely massive.
