RB Leipzig (A) - Post-match Thread

[Zenmanc]

Glad KDB played TBH. He looked rusty at the beginning but better than he usually looks coming back from being out. Never x'pected us to turn up and barnstorm, RB had more reason to play with heart than we did fighting for European football.

I'm not disappointed aside from Walker being a knob as that'll hurt us in our opener next round. I'd've like t've seen more youth to start but doubt it'd've changed result. We needed to get Phil the Cat and K to the B more minutes in them anyway.

Prep for a neutering of Wolves in the weekend. Think about CL in the new year.

Go City.

Awful! Walker WTF. If Grealish is worth £100m I'm a Dutchman. He's worse than Sterling. That ref should stick to teaching and not PE.

 

[Burtonblue]

How was that not a penalty on Sterling?
Ref was awful and allowed them to kick us off the park.
I knew he was a homer the moment he booked KDB. Never seen that done before.
Disgraceful.
Apart from that we clearly didn’t give a fuck about that game. Why play such a strong line up if so.
Kyle was an idiot and let’s hope it doesn’t bite us on the bum…

 

[MadchesterCity]

Well that was shit!

 

[malg]

I'd rather have the 3 points at the weekend.

 

[Phil1]

Really?

From his post history, yes, really.

Let’s hope that Grealish isn’t our Rodney Marsh.

He is a long way short at present. I think he is very talented but he is slower and more predictable than I thought. He has a lot of work to do to reach the highest level as a player. Hopefully his time will come at City.

 

[roy.or.r]

You think the two are in any way related??

No but I find it rich that people who always moan at the ref every fucking game slags off people who moans at Pep's occasional fuck-ups.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

I’m not Pep and he sees things in the squad that none of us do but I found everything about our shape and play and personnel baffling.

You trust that he looks at things holistically for the whole season but I quite honestly can’t see what we were trying to get from this game from start to Palmer’s couple of minutes at the end.

Hated that game. Minutes in the legs? For who. Fern?
He hasn’t got them in him and Kev is nowhere near the first team.
Raz comes on. Things look sharper with him running on the wing.
So we switch him into the middle and put Jack with no pace back out left.

If it’s all just an exercise I hated it. Didn’t look like a City team at all.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

Totally unprofessional from Walker that. But fuck me what do you reckon the wanker ref would have made of Cathcarts challenge at weekend if that's a red. Gobshite pundits said fuck all at weekend for a worse challenge. Are we playing different rules in Europe. Half the team wasn't arsed Not sure why the kids didn't get more of a shout. Fucking shit show all round. Less said about this bullshit performance the better.
