Match Thread | Slovan Bratislava vs. Man City (01/10/24)

[Blue Steel]

If we played like this against a half decent team we would be rinsed. It’s too chaotic considering we don’t need to be.

Doku needs to start learning to actually look up and find other players.

Why is Savio on the left anyway?

 

[Haaland94]

What are you actually watching?

Us passing them to death, shooting, crossing, but hardly any 100% chances.

We're two up, playing well without getting out of second gear. People are talking about GD; I'm guessing that if we win 5 of the 8 league matches, we'll comfortably qualify. Maybe as few as four could be enough. As for it being the easiest; we'll see. Sparta at home should be fairly straightforward.

It's been too easy and they've rode their luck with us hitting the woodwork, but we need to be a bit more ruthless. Stroll about at four or five.

Would this lot beat Watford?

Not sure they would. I know we put a weaker team out in that game but they're Championship level aren't they?

Easily low Championship level, if not League 1. Never seen us play such a poor team in the CL and that’s with us playing Shalke and Brugge sides who were diabolical.

haaland has been exceptional and you never mention him

He has been absolutely everywhere! ;-)

 

[Gabriel]

I know our players are conditioned to rotate the ball and pass it back from midfield, but their teammates should be telling them that they’re unmarked and have yards of space behind them to run into.

 

[WestGorton]

Should be five just a bit unlucky. Playing fine bar the first two minutes.

 

[freshie]

I want Nunes to do well but I just don’t see it happening for him at city. I’d rather play macatee.

He’s useless

 

[Blu1]

20 more mins for Gundy, Phil & haaland & get them off

Nunes needs a motm 2nd half or I’m done with him (sadly)
