Stuttgart vs City

This game doesn't really matter so no need to get angry about it.

It's just concerning that we're making the same mistakes and by the same players.
 
If you play Mangala, he's got to partner Demichelis....good partnership

Mangala and Kompany nightmare

Sami Nasri...goto go, Juve are sniffing, get the Pogba deal done!
 
Any fans out there watching this should be fully re-imbursed by the club / players. I thought last years shambles at Wembley against Arsenal was painfully bad, and didnt augur well for the season, but this friendly or not ..........words fail me!
 
I could tell you now that the coach has been the coach of Salzburg before and one a half years ago Bayern went to Salzburg for the last test match and got beaten 3:0...(was very healthy as we went on a winning streak afterwards until we had the league)

But then - be glad you work in mighty EPL and not in the Bundesliga where 9 of 18 teams are pressing machines like the one you see today... ;)
 
pairing Eveans with Nasri ahead of him was a bit daft to be fair left the midfield overun and defence exposed, Koralov is as expected too far up field and out of position, Vinny? I just hope it's because he's been away from the squad the the last 2 games and he will be ok next week
 
It's horrible to see Kompany strung out like this, and I hope it's a case that he's too exposed and lacking match fitness, rather than being on the way out. Think I'll wait til we've actually got a midfield to support to make a judgement, but this is concerning. He was supposed to be our Maldini/ Puyol and retire with us, but on this showing, he won't be here til next year.

However, ignoring all this, Pellegrini's attempt to come up with a new 4-1-5 formation has failed spectacularly
 
2 new fullbacks, a CB and a midfielder that actually puts a tackle in but is mobile and can pass, I.e Naianggolan. Possibly the worst half of football I've seen since the takeover. Amazing how badly the defence has deteriorated. We laugh at the rags defence but this is terrible.
 
Better this week than next. Hopefully this is a wake up call for Pellegrini & Txiki.The entire defense and DM is beyond shocking.It's partly personnel and partly organisation. Can Pep take over immediately? Flapping season is now officially open.
