Match Thread | Southampton vs Man City (20/03/22)

Why does he persist with KDB, Rodri and Gundo?

Boom

 

[vmsuhail]

It’s all very meh isn’t it? I was watching it thinking the 17/18 side would be 3 or 4 by now. The idea that this is Peps best team is absolute drivel. It’s all very slow, meandering and just nothing like what we have seen in recent years.

That was one of the most ridiculous things I've read on here. When City fans themselves put down the Centurions and Formidables, we can't complain when media doesn't praise that side.

Playing shite now for a while. No point denying what we are watching. It’s not working. The false 9 is done imo.

It was done before Christmas
Teams have sussed out how to combat it. Yes we'll win games but against decent quality counter attacking teams, we'll struggle.

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

Watching City in the last four or five games (except the Derby) is like watching a rerun of the same game. Boy we are missing Diaz at the back. Hopefully a dressing room bollocking and maybe just maybe we can turn up in the second half.

Jesus really needs to get more involved when he gets a chance.

 

[Blue tiger]

Jesus and Gundo off, Mahrez and Bernardo on. Love how hard Jesus works, but the lad is not good enough. Need Bernardo in there to match Southamptons work rate.

Lethargic

 

[Luke The Blue]

How is that his fault?

Cancelo gave it away, Gundo and Rodri made poor efforts to tackle, Cancelo was blnowuere defensively and Laporte dunked it into his own net… and you say “Steffan is wank”?!

You being serious? What was he waiting for? Phillip Schofield came out quicker than that.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Players are going through the motions, almost arrogant for the third time against these , do they not understand they are decent and given encouragement, they will turf us out.

Hes starting to shoehorn Gundogan alongside Rodri once again. No wonder we are looking dogshit
