Match Thread | Man City vs Sevilla - Super Cup (16/08/23)

[cookster]

Another final, no goals for Haaland.
2 x Charity Shields, FA Cup, CL and half a Super Cup.
Let's hope he breaks his duck 2nd half.

TBF I'd take a loss tonight if we get a win Saturday.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Not to shabby for a team in transition.

The amount of Shit Palmer is getting here is depressing. Probably the same people who used calling Riyad FFS and a squad player are moaning about him leaving now. Definitely out of here for the second half.

Bizarre isn't it. He has played several really dangerous balls into the box and has looked tidy too. Still, there is always someone to blame.

Hate it when City do the hard bit by getting in a good position only to slow it down and go backwards again. Stop cutting inside City....get down the wings and whip it in. Hopefully the tempo gets upped a bit 2nd half...heat probably not helping. Don't overthink it City. Play one touch and we will beat these.

Inverted wingers won't go down the wings and whip it in

You know we’re in trouble when Walker winds up a 45 yarder

He’s finding his range for Bramhall lane

Let’s be honest that was dogshit.
No Kev, no Gundogan, no Mahrez.
No threat.
Time for the playmakers to step it up.

I think that is one of the problems-a huge drop off in creativity.

 

[christened at st marks]

Loved Palmer with the youth but has a confidence problem that will hinder his career

 

[Chi-town blues]

Stop downplaying it mate, we wanna win this ffs.

Hate losing but it is what it is .

Well, the Akanji experiment certainly hasn't worked so that needs binning off. One or two encouraging signs as the half moved towards its close but largely we've been plodding along with little sign of quality or cohesion.

He is just getting in the way when we attack.

I thought we did ok without being very exciting.

Good goal but shit defending.

 

[Brewster's millions]

We need another player in the box and we’ll be a lot better.

Alvarez on for Foden or Palmer.

McCoist needs to shut his mouth as well.
