Porto (h) post-match thread

What a load of cock.

You mean other players stepped in for him.
You watched his performance & he read the game ?

What did he read when he was facing the fucking lino with his hand up & the City backline, behind him, playing the player on, like he's done in a whole bunch of games costing us ?

What was he reading when the player ran across our defence to score & he hid behind Rodri doing fuck all ?

What about the cross that came in & he let the cf who was in front of him, run behind him without even noticing ?

He's like a fucking tutorial on how not to defend & Pep bigs him up.

It's like fucking Wille McKay & Kevin Keegan with Pep & Puyol

And you`re like a fucking broken record.

Cancelo/Garcia, Rodri & [controversial) Aguero imo.

Aguero I'd cut some slack he's coming back from almost four months injured.

I wouldn’t know who that muppet is but you clearly suffer hearing some truth.
I guess I’m banned any minute now for liking a player (who is still OUR player btw) but could end up playing for another club within a year, which would make me a traitor.

I assume you guys are grown men but I don’t understand why some here can’t have an argument without getting offended like a 16 year old girl.

I rate Eric over John. End of. It doesn’t make me a Barcelona fan. I’m a City fan and I hope he stays because that would be good news for our team. I’m clearly better than you at identifying talent.

Poor at identifying talent but better than me when talking about yourself . I agree with that assessment .

If Ake or Laporte had been playing, we wouldn't have required Rodri or Cancelo to do anything imo.

Laporte's injuries are stacking up don't you think.

A picture tells a thousand words.

Gündogan moan moan.

Mahrez moan moan.

That's a summary of the pre-match thread. I haven't bothered to read the post-match.

I have long since given up reading the match thread,

Strange game tonight. Not much happening up front, even less in the middle and a defence that was solid one side and shaky on the other. We gave the ball away far too much with suicidal crossfield balls that a sharper attack would've pounced on.
Once Guardiola decided to up the tempo with Foden on for Gundoghan we were a different team.

We were also 2-1 up and Porto had to open up to get back in the game.

 

[Bill Walker]

The first half was Dier I thought we were lead-footed with one attempt on goal.
I was cursing Pep for his team selection once again.
Massive difference when the two lads came on.
In the end a great result but not a great spectacle to watch.
Sterling seem to be nonexistent and when he got the ball run into a blind alley.
Walker was superb.
Pepe should have been sent off Shirley.

Getting harder and harder to watch our games, Leicester a few weeks back were Tom Daley FC and Porto tonight went full Monica Lewinsky.

This team needs a lot of work on the defence. We cant keep forking out on defenders and seeing the same old mistakes.

Defence will be fine when we aren't down to bare bones.
