Will it be a total disaster if we lose this game ? I’m just not confident we can get out of this rusty spell. Freezing night v spurs doesn’t feel good :-(

Was just going to highlight this point.

Walker barely offers anything going forward and for the amount of times he gets caught up field I just don't get it.

If he plays on thursday he should be told to monitor the ball in behind to Son and prioritise that all game, not bombing forward/getting caught in midfield when his man is baring down on goal as was the case on multiple occasions on saturday.

Pep partly to blame too as he will be instructing him to attack n drive forward, but there has to be a point where logic is used and we get back to basics.

Not sure if I even watched the whole match but I thought he contained the French forward attack quite well in the WC. I wonder if the waistcoats instructions more defensive.
However, my view is that you do need your fullbacks to get up the field and threathen but they need to be precise about when and decisive when they do.
 
What gone wrong with Erling he was scoring for fun before the world cup, scoring every week hatricks, 2 goals a game, the lot.
Whats happened since

I dont know how the bookies and the media, ssn etc.have us down as favourites. I thought spurs play well second half against arsenal
 
Stones and Dias back in training is massive. I guess its a game too early for Dias. But potentially having Stones-Laporte as a partnership is crucial for our build up vs Spurs and bypassing their press. They left a lot of space vs Arsenal so it might be easier for our front three than vs United. Peps comments about the service to Haaland was also encouraging. I feel now that if we get the win against Spurs it could be a massive boost to the players and get us out of this malaise. C’mon City
