Alvarez for ilkay

Phil for mahrez

Pep gone back to sticking Grealish and Mahrez on the touchline. it didn't work before, it won't work now. No creativity in the middle. Alvarez and Mahrez have done nothing. Get Gundo on.

Need to play Gundo or Foden centre to open the play. Doing ok and should be ahead.

Feels like the Komps Leicester game.

Oh fuck sky and the cunts on coms. Glad I am stiffing you 100 a month by using ip.

Flat

Annoying that they persist with crosses when West Ham gobble them up.

Play along the floor more

Like watching the post-world cup games where we seemed to think we were playing in a training match most weeks. Rodri, Bernardo and Jack the only ones who look like they want to win the game.

Dreadful from us this half, Bernardo and Mahrez wide have been poor so far. Our crossing into the box has been below par, barely found a City player so far.
Need someone to run at them into the box, it's been too easy for them so far.

Poor so far.
I’d get Foden on for Mahrez or Alvarez, maybe Gundogan on as well. Need some quality creativity - Alvarez looks a bit lost, and Bernardo’s crossing has been woeful.

 

[01cravend]

We've hit the post twice... Been frustrating but the goals are there.

 

[mancityscot]

Should be 2-0 up. We're playing fine.

It’s fucking hard to play against a packed defence tbf. Players have been a bit sluggish though

 

[thanatos]

Unpopular - but Alvarez is the problem in this set up.

He hasn’t been great, playing a little to deep.
