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

Undercooked (as usual at the start of a season). Possession is OK but we aren't getting the ball forward quickly enough.
I also DON'T understand why both our top defenders - Stones AND Dias - are on the bench.

No Kev, no Bernie

Marehez and gundog gone

That’s a fair chunk of creativity that would be missed against a compact team like these

The annoying thing is we have rarely got in behind considering they are playing narrow

Not enough getting to byline and pulling it back

Both Jack and Cole seem to want to cut back and come inside instead of beating man on outside
Maybe pep has instructed that

Need Alverez behind haaland and push Phil wide

Is Foden nervous? That’s a big role he’s taking up if he is playing the Kev role, just feels like he doesn’t want to make a mistake, keep it simple etc

Foden cant do what Kev does

Is it safe to come in here? Asking for a friend

When winning the Champions League isn't enough for some Blues, you already know the answer to that, my friend.

Big game Saturday night no need to go all out for this tonight

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.

the new Edghill blue to the bone but ripped to pieces by his own, quite sad really.

Is there extra time or straight to pens?

Pens

 

[TB369]

We are just suffering from a real lack of creativity.

Watching a different game to me - he’s had a few touches and buggered them all up.

A poor half from him.

Tongue in cheek. I'm 'watching' the game on the MDC - and picking up snippets off 'ere!

I fucking hate Lamela. Got a face I'd never tire of punching. Horrible Gobby shithouse snidey ****.
Back to one chance 1 goal for the opposition. This Sevilla side are shit. Solid defensively but that's all. They've sat in all game and we've let the twats score from one fucking attack.
Weee lacking that final pass too. So far.
