Match Thread | Shakhtar Donetsk vs Manchester City (06/12/17)

[Blue Whale]

Maybe a defeat will help to refocus the mind. Surely this is the best game to lose.

Is the correct answer...

Might be a bit of a makeshift team but that doesn't excuse Sane and Jesus for their first half. Needs a rocket up appropriate orifice.

 

[Ric]

Not really arsed about this. Just want to see Fernandinho and Sane off at half-time.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Yaya is a fucking cart horse, and that’s probably doing the horse a disservice.

And then we look at the bloke next to him, who Yaya has run past twice.

Such a disappointing first half. Look slow, uninterested, no creativity.

I wonder why!?!?

Only 4 of that team will be in with a shout of starting on Sunday. Bet all 4 are thinking ‘why the fuck am I on this pitch!?!’

 

[Luke The Blue]

Don't actually care as long as we win weekend.

How on earth this does not mean anything? What about those 750 souls who went all way over there to watch this crap.

True true. Let’s put all our best players on to appease the fans, awesome idea.

because we are top and already through. the people going there knew that. what do you expect a full team ?

 

[PW]

I'd forgotten what all over the place defending looked like. Been pretty atrocious at the back, wouldn't fancy having to rely on them on a regular basis.

 

[Bozo]

We've also had the space to play that was totally missing the last few league games, and haven't done anything with it. Hope for more in the 2nd half.
