The battle for 2nd place. C'mon City!

fuck sake

 

[JRockBlues]

Shocking start again.

 

[moomba]

Christ.

 

[Double R]

Honest to god.

 

[JRockBlues]

Just played right into the trap. Arsenal just standing off waiting for the ball to be played out and then pounce.

 

[paulchapo]

WTF??? I thought I'll have a look at the women's game and Arsenal had just scored!

It’s no accident - the obsession with playing it back to the keeper is costing us. Never seen a team look for the keeper as often as City women. We are just not good enough to play out from the back against a high press

Maybe they’ll learn from this, I mean they haven’t from the other 23 times they’ve given this exact goal away in the past couple of years - but maybe this time.

Doesn't help that the 'keeper isn't very good

Maybe but that wasn’t on her.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Going well.

 

[Bigga]

Well, the trap was set and you could see that Aleixandri tends to want time, so that press was correct.

Playing it back to the keeper wasn't the issue.

Battle for 4th place

 

[moomba]

Really poor again

 

[JRockBlues]

And it gets worse.

 

[Bigga]

Wow, shambles at the back.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

What’s the equivalent of 40 points in the WSL?

 

[paulchapo]

This is going to be a massacre unless we wake up.
