Hahaha remember the game one of our fans streamed live from the away ground might have been an FA Cup game ..

FA Cup away, i think it might have been Palace. Streamed live on Twitch. Outstanding effort.

Our best years under pep have been a standard 4 3 3 formation with no nonsense tweaks

In those years we often played a 2-5-3 on the ball as Delph or Zinchenko or Cancelo pushed into midfield or Mendy played as a wing back.

On the ball we almost always try and have 4 or 5 in midfield no matter what our defensive formation would suggest the line-up is.

God! I love Jack Grealish. I know I'm in the minority. :)

 

[Chi-town blues]

Have we got past……one shot, one goal yet?

let’s get together and feel alright

 

[skillman]

Seeing Grealish making those driving runs is really satisfying. Takes me back to Yaya in up until 2013 when he used to shrug players off as if they were kids

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

Superb from jack! Much more of that

I'm with you on that .
I think he's a top player

Has FFs turned up today rather then champ league Mahrez?

Fuck right off with these shite camera angles

 

[super_city_si]

Lots of possession and nice play but we look a bit toothless.

Yep a gummy start from us

 

[Paul1970]

Gundo should have took that free kick .

 

[Josh_D]

Defence switched on so far. Good stuff

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Their tactics are fairly obvious, try and hit us on the break

 

[Damanino]

getting worried if they manage to get a shot on target.
playing well, create nothing so far tho.

 

[jamielowndes]

And that's what pressing from the front looks like. Even it Rodri just took out a streetlight.

Anyone who thinks that any problems we've had this year are formation related and not pace and intent based is crazy.

Ruben leads the line so well
