Match Thread | Man City vs Newcastle (19/08/23)

[bluealf]

One of the best displays for a long time.

Has it really been that long since The Real game?
Hell, we won four trophies since then as well

Jack is too predictable

Agree he has been fine but when he comes in his right foot and wanting to shoot he should either pass it for a one two or try and cross it to Haaland or right to the other side to Walker

Alvarez mi buen amigo
Esta campaña volveremo' a estar contigo
Te alentaremos de corazón

The reaction from Haaland when that shot went in is mint

 

[Lavinda Past]

The word is.... Comfortable.

The player is.... Kovacic.

Keep it up lads.

 

[Gabriel]

Newcastle seemed oddly subdued. They normally go at us to the sound of the trumpets but were strangely cagey in that half. Maybe they think we’ll tire later in the game.

We’re keeping the ball very well and they occasionally switch off and leave us 3 v 3, so a second should present itself.

 

[Legal Alien]

Good half City, well played!

We're in control of the game and everyone is playing well, the defence looks solid and Kovacic looks great, with Foden everywhere!

Another half like that please Blues!

 

[Beanhead]

Phil stepping up to the plate.

He’s been electric.. he’s my favourite player in the world to watch and when he’s on it like today even more so.

 

[Metal Biker]

He is like that. He'll bang 2 in 2nd half.

He'd better, or I might have to complain about him in the match day thread!

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Central midfield trio of Rodders, Kovacic and Foden really good in that first half

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Need more from Jack. And Erling.

Foden sensational. Kovacic impressive.

Not having Akanji in the Stones role though.
