Match Thread | Man Utd vs Man City (08/03/20)

[avoidconfusion]

I am still trying to understand what is happening this season but some of our players are so shit compared to last. Big job to do in the Summer Transfer window, a lot of deadwood to shift.

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Never a pen

ABSOLUTELY A PENALTY! How can you say it wasn’t??? Yellow card is a joke. Penalty, Otamendi off, game over!

Mike Dean has done us a solid!

 

[Ric]

Really poor half that. Can't see us getting anything out of this unless we change things drastically.

 

[christened at st marks]

Foden has been anonymous.

It ain't his fault put Walker on and watch it change

 

[argyle]

Bernardo Silva needs to have a look at himself this summer. Last season he was player of the year.

A shit text later and hes gone to shit.

 

[RandomJ]

Pep just Fookin bollock them

Needs to bollock himself for picking this team.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Silva for Foden
Bernardo out wide
Mendy for Zinchenko
Mahrez or Jesus for sterling

 

[Bez]

Come on City! Wake up. Creating nothing in the final 3rd. Pep needs to change things.

 

[Blue Smarties]

Half-Time.

I’m off to sniff some glue.

You might need the heavy duty stuff after this half mate.

 

[SWP's back]

Gundogan has been our best player that half...not sure what that says about the rest of them

The actual fuck game are you watching? He was shite.

 

[RayCTID]

Didn't help matters with the ref but the team isn't helping themselves either.

 

[Afterthefact]

Numerous times Phil is waiting to be released in behind down the right but neither Bernardo nor cancelo will play him into space.

same thing as always with the jumbled line-ups...no one hs an understanding so everything is to feet or lobbed into the box, because there’s little instinctual awareness to make runs or to expect them.

 

[Blu1]

We are so in need of about 5 players in the summer we are carrying old players & poor players

 

[urban genie]

We've been average.
They've been average
We are losing because of a goal that should have been saved bu our keeper easily from a free kick that shouldn't have been given.


Both teams have been poor and disapointing step up second half and we can storm the second half

 

[Goater=Legend]

They've played the same way against us under Ole and he decided to pick a team with nothing upfront

 

[Cornish_Blue]

I just can't get my head around Pep's tactics here. They have five in defence giving us no space at all so he instructs Sterling and Foden to just stand wide on the touch line. Then we just pass it about in the middle and back to the defence. No runs in behind just pass it about.

THIS

 

[Dax777]

Hate to say it but get OTA off asap. Also zinchenko. And the bit I really hate to say is get Stirling off. Yet another big game where he is anonymous.

Ota has saved us 3ice. Including when Dihno lost his man on a fly boy. Zinchencko's possession is part of the reason why we are keeping possession longer. And Wan Bissaka is a handful for any winger.

We are dot okay. Unfortunately we are losing and don't have the magic of Debryune to add extra. So we gonna have to middle through.

 

[sh249]

ok for 20 minutes or so, utterly desperate since.
only plus side is that we’re only one down, could easily have been more.
changes? fuck knows - could take pretty much anyone off.

 

[manchester blue]

Our lot aren’t passing to him.

This

 

[UUJblue]

It ain't his fault put Walker on and watch it change

Agreed. Neville talking about other subs. Get walker on to run at Williams and fat boy

 

[TFC]

So, that was shite.
