Match Thread | Man City vs. RB Leipzig (28/11/23)

[eyalluvitt]

Some fans on here won't have it. Someone made him MotM over Akanji the other day!

He's been shocking, although some would have him captain of this squad, full stop!!

Great first season, was an inspirational leader who lead us to the title, very hot and cold since, feel Laporte should have stayed instead

 

[01cravend]

Since the loss of Gundogan and the absence of De Bruyne I think too much is expected of Rodri in midfield with other players not stepping up.

Nunes and Kovacic injured?

 

[Gray]

We've won here and there but is United the only good team that we've actually played well against this season?

Didn’t have to play well against them, so we have been very average this season.

Who’s on the bench?

 

[Blue Llama]

Sunday league stuff that defending

Not any better attacking

 

[Middedon]

Every player thread for the defenders this season alternates between posts that say “they’re the best ever” and “sell them now.” No middle ground!

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Akanji and Dias seem to have forgotten how to play.

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

Not defending that first half performance as it was poor both collectively and individually, but if we'd had our shooting boots on we could have easily had 3 to 5 goals tonight. I expect a reaction in the 2nd half and fortunately we don't need to win the game so 2 goals gets us the draw we need.

My only concern is if these type of games continue then is de bruyne rushed back to soon ..

 

[Halloween Jack]

If we were gonna have a bad day, today is probably the best day to have it. Think we'll bounce back second half. Trust Pep.

 

[Ghostofmerlin]

Nunes and Kovacic injured?

They also aren't exactly the most creative players on the offensive end of the pitch.

 

[BringBackSwales]

People used to wonder what Ilkay did. Fuck, have we missed him tonight. Fancy us to have a strong second half. Assuming Ruben doesn’t get sent off

 

[Ken92]

Nunes and Kovacic injured?

They arent anywhere close to gundo and de bruyne,no one in our team is

 

[Gabriel]

Nunes and Kovacic injured?

And two midfielders on the bench that the management evidently don’t trust.

Can we keep them out at the other end, though?

 

[Tricky_Trev]

This fucks us for the games either side of the last group game as we now have to win it and can’t rotate, whilst also potentially then fucking us in February when we have to play Real Madrid or Bayern instead of Copenhagen or PSV. Shit night.

 

[Kinkladze 1]

Some of those first half misses were criminal.

 

[svennis pennis]

Feel like the lads have watched the Stuart Peace era season review and taken great inspiration. I’m feeling weirdly nostalgic as we hammer passes out of play, blast shots over the bar, trip over the ball at the back and clatter into players when the ball is long gone.
