Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Tottenham (23/08/25)

[chesterbells]

Great against the cannon fodder, but he is in nowhere near CL quality level.

In a nutshell.

 

[Beanhead]

Doku and Lewis need bailing asap

Doku actually brings something Lewis only brings errors.

 

[citysince88]

Maybe that's what we need, a brutally honest reception from the fans. Scoring a goal here and there just to make it seem like we put up a fight is what led to this mess.

You may well be right. I just dislike the glee that the media will take from it.

 

[IrishBloodEnglishHeart]

Stones is the reason we went down in the first place

Not arguing that fact. However Dias has been terrible for a good while now. Misplaced passes, can't tackle, gets bullied by strikers. His head hasn't been in the game since he broke up with his ex.

Khus offers pace - no way we concede that first one with him playing.

 

[TinFoilHat]

FOYS!

 

[waspish]

Well us fans expectation is right down the pan after all the excitement of the new signing and last week!

 

[PinkFinal]

This really has been like a pre season game

 

[King Jay]

Extending Lewis and Dias contract is criminal

Chelsea would’ve sold them.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Wait till we beat another shit team and Rico hype once again starts to begin :D

We're losing to a shit team here. And at home.

 

[Gumzy97]

Maybe.

It’s either the system or the recruitment?

I have said before, need to start buying world class players if we can only play one way.

We look like those teams that used to try and copy city but with lesser players.

We have too many project players and not enough proven quality.

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Get Donnarumma, Rodrygo on the phone ASAP.

 

[69FACUPfinal]

No chance Rodri signs that contract extension- we’re fucking bollocks.

I agree.

 

[DD93]

We're losing to a shit team here. And at home.

This is middle table team, Wolves will be relegated..

That's the difference.

 

[citymad]

Think we might be alright against lower half teams but struggle to get anything from the top 6-8. This has been a huge letdown after last week.

 

[blue moony]

Said it last season and don't care what I get called

Peps morphing Into Wenger ....

Pep Wenger ...

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

KDB sitting down in Napoli thinking well its not my fault.

It will get worse…he’ll play today and score a brace.

 

[sir baconface]

Having an open chequebook isn’t enough. We are up against a number of managers - not necessarily stellar names - who can organise their teams against us.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Maybe.

It’s either the system or the recruitment?

I have said before, need to start buying world class players if we can only play one way.

We look like those teams that used to try and copy city but with lesser players.

We look like Frank De Boer's Crystal Palace

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

Wolves game was a false dawn…..

Not for me really if I'm honest. It was clear Wolves were absolute shite. Even then they still had plenty of chances to grab 3 or even 4 if they had top quality strikers with a good team behind them. It was 50/50 City being good and Wolves being total bollocks. I wasn't convinced after last week. I even said to friends - "Lets talk again after Spurs".

 

[B\connellblue]

Spurs player literally goes through the back of him 3ft from the ref and he does nothing

This ref nonsense has to stop every time we get beat. A lame excuse for a woeful display
