Match Thread | Man City vs. Man Utd FA Community Shield (10/08/24)

[Blu1]

Got 1 nil to the Rags written all over this.

Does have that feel about it

Loving it so far - welcome back Blues. Oscar Bobb the star of the half. Really good from Rico too. A bit of sloppiness from Gvardiol gave United their chance, but we are much the better footballing team despite so many missing. Commentary went off just because the United directors are of utterly no interest to anyone.

Would be interesting to see how Nunes would impact his game alongside Kovacic.

Would stick with the same side for another 15 minutes and then bring on Nunes and Savio

Take off O'Riely, Doku.

 

[Cobwebcat]

Impressed with Rico

O'Riely started well.

Bobb, Rico & Kovacic looking very good, Doku doing ok as well.

McAtee very unlucky.

Few big boys to come on. Come on City

Pep might have a word with Rico. When Bobb has the ball near their box, don't immediately run ahead of him and deny him space and options by dragging another defender back with you.

 

[Bald fraud]

Whenever we get in our stride they start kicking lumps out of us

Got 1 nil to the Rags written all over this.

And giddy articles about how they can win the league will begin..

 

[OntarioBlue]

Is it just me or does Rashford look completely disinterested?

Been stealing a living for two seasons (at least). £300k a week !!

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Young lads are doing fine for the most part. The distribution from the back is killing us, hopefully Dias and Akanji can sort it out for next weekend.
