my only hope is they don’t hit us with a transfer ban this summer, because we are in dire need of an overhaul

Feels a lot of games where a lack of subs is our undoing.

With de bruyne I think we’ll have to much for them in the next leg though.

Bristol City fans will be quaking on their combine-harvesters at work tomorrow after watching that

If we played like we did vs Forest then they will be.

Has anyone read peps post match comments. He has said he doesn’t think we have the pace to play in transition with speed and play forward quickly. He named haaland and walker as the only ones with real pace. Ignore the fact that you may disagree and name foden etc as others. But, he obviously doesn’t feel we can play any way except from this. We obviously need new players this summer to put some life into this team.

It makes you wonder how this could happen. They sold Sterling and Jesus and now they have no pace? It seems to me that a team with City's resources should have seen this coming.

We drew a game.

We had a bad 2nd half of a football game.

Honestly, calm down.

We’ve had quite a few draws and a few bad second halves lately
Only quoting the guy

Blatant handball and also it was a foul for their goal. What the fuck were VAR doing?

Having said that our second half was shite. But cheated by the officials.

It was definitely a handball but I don’t think it was a foul on their goal- just a hell of a leap.

Didn't lead Spurs to any trophies despite his goals. Missed a vital penalty in the World Cup vs France. Didn't win the league when Leicester did despite us and the rest being completely out of the picture.

Now you've pointed all that out, I can't for one minute think why Pep saw Harry Kane as his main target in the summer window.

You're wrong Ray. Totally wrong. Kane would be brilliant at City.

 

[argyle]

don’t do twitter and not a pep out so don’t try patronise me aaron…. it’s stale boring football!

sure it was boring, it was a frustrating 2nd half and the season so far isn't as good as the last.

Just don't over-react!

All is still to play for.

Nothing else matters. Jesus what have we become. Where is the City that played attacking attractive football that terrified the opposition?! We have become a team that is 99% control and 1% risk and it makes for a very tough watch. Again I said the result was decent, no more, but the regularity of these kind of performances is concerning.

We have become stale, predictable and vulnerable.
That was a tired looking team with no depth on the bench.
If Pep was concerned about the team lacking pace, why has retained slow ageing players and let Leroy and Raheem go?
