Match Thread | Man City vs Sheff Utd FA Cup @ 4.45pm (22/04/23)

If you connect with someone in the penalty area then better make sure you've successfully cleared the ball at the start of the action.

Bernie would still have been in possession of the ball in the box had he not been dropped.

Anyway at least Keane, Wright and Carney aren't as deluded and ignorant as Dixon, McCoist and Matterface.

"He may have brushed the ball" just as a slow mo replay shows clearly he doesn't

The commentary has been shockingly biased.

No clear and obvious error by the ref for the penalty, which was brilliantly dispatched by Riyad.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Are they just going to ignore that their clear cut chance was offside and is irrelevant?

 

[malg]

Why is there fake crowd noise in the studio at half time?

Hahaha... good point

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Dicks in the studio trying to polish a turd.

Its anti football, everyone behind the ball looking for a hoof over the top….boring, predictable, and a shit spectacle.

I used to love McCoist. But this last year he’s said some right wacky stuff in some of our games.

If and its a big IF, the sheff utd player did get the slightest of touches on the ball it doesnt matter. Its still a foul…. Bizarre level of commentary

McCoist has always been a cnut.

 

[Gabriel]

Took us 25 minutes to get going but since then we’ve dictated things. We’re doing enough to win and be in the final and that’s all that matters. They’ve no interest in opening up- thank God they never scored first- and if we can get a second we can get a third.

 

[BlueTG]

Haaland will score before the 60th minute.

We're playing at a pretty slow tempo which is natural against a packed defence. Haven't created much but hopefully worn them down a bit for the 2nd half. Rather quiet from Alvarez and Haaland and our wide players are doubled up on so don't have much space to work in. Would like to see more overlapping from Gomez and Walker to create more options for Grealish and Mahrez. Gomez has been pretty tidy and moved the ball well.

If we can up the tempo a little 2nd half, I think we can find another goal or two and kill the game off.
