Haaland doesn’t look right to me and hasn’t since the restart after the WC. That header across goal from Rodri would have been a simple nod in earlier in the season, his confidence looks a bit gone.

Have a look at his scoring history and he’s a very streaky player.

He’ll score hatticks and braces galore for a month or six week, then goes six weeks barely scoring.

Very comfortable and controlled so far . A 2nd goal for us will make it a lot easier
C’mon City

It's difficult to criticise such a dominant display, but by fuck it's boring! It's like we prize possession more than the chance to score. If I was a neutral looking for a team to support, there is nothing in our current style of play currently that would have me saying "where can I get a blue and white scarf from!"

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz....

I think this performance so far combined with the Forest performance (despite the result) have given me confidence that we can go on and win some pots this season. It feels more like the City of last season than at any point probably since we played United at home.

If we play like this every week we will be fine.

Commentator keep referring to our Pres-sink and pass-ink

Trying to sound scouse, you know the BT way

We can kill off this tie tonight. 2/3-0 and that’s done.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

For the most part we have been excellent. Kept possession really well and gave them next to nothing.

I’m liking Mahrez roaming rather than being glued to the touchline.

Dias and Bernie have been excellent.

Grealish looking good again.

I think Walker would be an absolute weapon on the right wing if he didn’t make Jesus Navas look like prime Beckham when crossing.

I would like to see us collectively getting our heads up and looking for a quicker pass and if we do that I don’t think they will be able to live with us. At the moment it’s all a bit slow.

 

[Tevez City]

Boring

Foden for Ake Pep

Would love to see the long, dipped ball into Haaland’s feet more often. He comes out on top more often than not when the ball lingers because he can use his strength while it’s in the air to position himself right.

Just about making sure he’s not got 2 on him

Its not Haaland, when he grabbed a hat trick against wolves I bet you weren't saying that

Sorry mate you seem to be at cross purposes, my Point is he was great earlier this season including Wolves, but now he doesn’t seem to have the confidence he had.
