Who have City got left to play who have decent centre backs and two or three quick forwards? 

 

... it's no-one, isn't it? 

 

Am I the only one who read that in the voice of Arnold J Rimmer?

And one last one…

Taking De Bruyne off 8 mins from a penalty shoot out not looking the brightest move from Baldiola there. Especially with his replacement Kovavic missing

Hope the cunt can’t sleep for a month

Haaland did fuck all, but don't you have to leave your best goal scorer on the pitch?

 

It's not as if he was out of gas after spending 90 minutes running from one end of the pitch to the other. He basically just stands around in the box.

I'm made up that weird twat doesn't get to win another European Cup.

Unexpectedly nice evening of football that. Bernardo Silva took that peno like he had a cup of tea in his hand. Ha ha that was beautiful.

If we’re being borderline delusional, Brighton away might be tough.

 

Spurs is their genuinely difficult fixture.

 

My main concern with this stuff is, are people genuinely confident about our forthcoming trips to Fulham & across the park?

 

We've just been absolutely battered at home by an average Serie A team & seen Palace get their first away win since they beat Burnley in November. It would take a pretty spectacular change in our form to win all six games, which we will almost certainly have to do...

City are still massively reliant on KDB doing amazing things. 

That's our next step, having a midfielder like that. 

The best thing our new manager can do is give Trent a go in that role.  If it doesn't work, fine, at least we tried it. 

[Lee909]

Fuck me this is bad 

Yeah we have hit a horrible patch of form in front of goal the last month and not really in a position to laugh. But bloody hell

Fabulous night topped off by that pen from the rat cunt Bernardo

Could've only been better if Ederson had fucked up his spot kick.

Not even borderline, when Brighton were in form and without 10 odd injuries City were winning those games fairly easily(exception being the 1-1 last season after City had already tied the league up anyway). Fully expect a 3 or 4 goal win for them going to the Amex.

I actually haven't watched him much at all and was expecting a mid-field general who controlled the pitch from box to box.

 

He spent most of his time chasing the ball and a step behind every pass.

 

So as someone said above more a Frank Lampard than a Steven Gerrard.

 

He's neither really. Far more of an athlete than Lampard ever was, but doesn't have the drive of Gerrard. 

 

I think he did better than everyone expected in the first half of the season and it went to his head. He probably saw playing within this type of tactical framework against a team like City, who were always going to have more of the ball, as beneath him.
