Match Thread | Manchester City vs West Ham (04/08/17 @ 3pm)

I like how comfortable we look when they break with 3 at the back, but I can't help but feel it's a bit conservative against sides playing like West Ham are. Especially when you have Toure sat in front of them. Nobody played badly that first half IMO but we still managed to look some way short of being a team.

Not if silva plays like he did last season.

not if Bernardo plays like last season.

Danilo has certainly impressed again, reminds of Zab about 3 years ago.

I enjoyed Ederson coming out like that, it will cost us occasionally, but it will add far more than it gives away.

KdB looks hungry.

Back 3, first time I've ever felt confident about us playing it, I know they haven't done much, but it does look to have a bit of something about it.

pre season weve played mostly 3-5-2 and I like it a lot especailly with the additions weve made

Danilo is what I thought Maicon would be, not what he was.
He fairly eats up the yards, at a canter, and that will catch some poor soul out early season.

A loyalist City flag. Ugly.

We don't seem to have taken this pre season seriously upfront, to many players trying fancy flicks and back heels when a simple ball is all that's needed!

It's 12 degrees in Iceland and it is forecast to be 24 against Girona on Tuesday.
Not that the match isn't compelling so far.

How on earth some of the clowns on here think that was a bad performance is beyond me lol

I was going to say, if I was Pep I would actually be frustrated with that first half performance for this and several other reasons.

As it is, as just me, I am.
