Semi Final - Post Match Thread

[Pingu the Penguin]

The vast majority of the thread is missing the point.

That wasn’t a ‘shit’ performance. It was City putting in the least amount of effort to get the job done.

We had 4-5 gears in reserve if we needed it.

There are so many big challenges ahead. This team can win a domestic treble and even the much vaunted Quadruple. This is how fucking good we are.

I found it ultra professional and highly intelligent from the manager and players.

I’d like to agree but the passing and tempo were poor today

Our centre backs (who defended excellently) are seeing far too much of the ball over recent games. I don’t know whether it’s a problem they are causing, or it’s down to our 8s being turd at the moment and giving them no forward options.

I thought Mendy was ok given it was his first game back, however Walker was shocking. I am sick to fucking death of him picking the ball up, with no opposition player within 15 yards of him but him playing it to one of our centre backs. If he showed even half the aggression with the ball at his feet as he did with his head, he might be half decent.

Midfield was extremely poor today, it pains me to say it but I can’t remember the last time David Silva had a standout performance. The poor midfield obviously has a knock-on effect for the forwards and I thought they were very quiet today.

I wonder and perhaps it's just me knowing f***all about managing a team but, could Pep be telling Walker to pass it inside ? Also DS is playing slightly more withdrawn due to BS moving forward. By the way DS could play shit for the next 50 games and he'd still be a god to me.

No, Edghill got forward sometimes and despite being a boo boy for the fans, he never shirked responsibility. Walker has the backbone of an octopus.

That is the biggest pile of shit I’ve read on here for a while. Congratulations

Here we go.

" Man of the match Anthony Knockaert says that Kyle Walker should "definitely" have been sent off for this:'

Then show the coming together of the heads. Actually dickwad YOU should have been sent off for shoving him over then doing a sly stamp on him. Not to mention you should have had at least two yellows for constant diving!!

They're both ugly diving ****s so it's understandable that you got confused, but it was Jahakanbash that stamped on Walker. Just as disgraceful but on the opposite wing.

Dean Saunders please shut the f*ck up you ex scouse prick. Its not a red card and gag that Laura up as well. She is proper ante City.

The switch off button works very well I find

Youre talking shite.The lad had a brainfart because some cvnt stamped on him,yes it could have cost us which makes him an irresponsible fool,but to accuse him of lacking character is frankly idiotic.

In case you have forgotten,this is another player who was instrumental in us being Centurions - you don't get to be such if you have no spine.

He shirks responsibility every time he gets the ball....”here Otamendi, you have it, I want nothing to do with it”.

 

[Manc in London]

That was ugly but I don't care. Chuffed to bits we are in another final

 

[B\connellblue]

These complacent performances are getting a Little too common. That performance wouldn't beat either watford or wolves. As for Mendy, today told us nothing other than hes alive.

But not the intelligence.

Not having a go at Walker - octopuses are really clever :-)

We must have had about 10 corners and never created a chance from them. They need Thaksin to show them how.
Never seen so many misplaced passes. Tempo much too slow; was it game management?
Will get beaten in the final, not to mention v spuds, unless we buck up. But we go on!
