Why are they not putting the passes through to him when he his making these runs ?
Gundo ignored him then

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

Gundogan is toiling here

 

[madloaf]

Just pass him the ball. Why are we so reluctant to play it through.

Managers orders

 

[mancityscot]

need that second goal otherwise we know how this ends.

 

[Josh_D]

I’d take the ‘risky’ play of Phil now. That ball needs to go to Haaland. He’s made some good ones this half.

 

[Dax777]

Another example :(

 

[Beanhead]

Werner.. head down runs towards goal.. looks up.. sees it’s Walker stops and checks back.

 

[Blu1]

Cmon city poor this now

 

[Bluemoonie92]

The refusal to play a forward pass to haaland is so frustrating. Turn with the fucking ball

 

[madloaf]

Take 1/0 boring or not……

But it's not guaranteed because we play boring is it.

 

[roach3]

Have they been ordered not to pass to haaland wtf

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Fuckin hell

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

This is a very good illustration of why De Bruyne is on the pitch whenever possible, form or fitness be damned. Even when he's off it he at least tries to make something happen. There's no way he would have not tried to put Haaland through in the same position that Gündy didn't

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Get Gundo off, can't play a single pass and is walking

 

[OntarioBlue]

Grealish had a great opportunity to play Haaland in there but chose to turn back and lost possession.

 

[pudge]

Seriously though, if Pep goes by body language how does Gundogan get away with throwing his arms up as much as he does

 

[Blu1]

We have lost our shape here

 

[Kadour75]

Jack has been poor in the second half.

 

[Ken92]

Comon Gündogan ,make one fcking pass please...

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Honestly if I was Haaland I would be fucking fuming with my teammates and the lack of service.
