Man City (H) - Sun 10th Mar 2024 (3:45pm)

[El Rojo]

Am I alone in thinking Elliott has been one of our best in that half?

 

Nunez has been poor and keeps straying offside.

 

Diaz has been okay up to the final ball.

 

Bradley excellent going forward.

 

[BeefStroganoff]

I think weve done well considering the team we have out. How that goal was given ill never know as Ake is actually offside when the ball is struck and hes pushing MacAllister away from goal.

[Lee909]

Neville fucking me off with this City by far the better team shite. We've had more possession and it's 7-7 on shots. We've had the better chances and the goal should have been chalked off if Endo was. But it seems City and Arsenal can block off every game and we can

[Red Phoenix]

I was amazed Bradley didn't shoot either. Frustrating but with a bit more experience and confidence maybe he'll go for those in future.

[Smell The Glove]

I think we've done alright. I wouldn't say they're scared but they are wary. Salah obviously has to come on for Elliott and let's see then.

[Pidge]

Just now, Elite said:

Maccalister was pulled away from the front post.

 Ah right, by Ake? 

[Freddo]

We need an attacking threat down the left. Robbo on Joe off. 
That at least gives Walker something to think about. Mo needs to come on for Elliot, Mo and Bradley down the right will hurt City.

Can't be offside from a corner mate. But yeah, shit like that should be penalised anyway.

[Scooby Dudek]

Just need to be calm in the final third, had opportunities but rushed it. 

To lose a goal from a set piece is fucking annoying. 

No way we would not have had the same disallowed and the prick refs would justify it. 

 

Getting shots on target would help.

ANy streams? @Bjornebye

Did you get one mate? I’m not on my laptop 

[Red Shift]

Bradley has been almost Heighway-ish on the right. Needs to back himself a bit more in front of goal. He’s capable. 
 

We were getting a bit tired just on halftime. Diaz for Mo at this stage. 
 

A Mo special assist for Darwin and a goal himself maybe. Macca needs to be a little further forward and trust Endo more. How tired will City get? Can we keep the press up? 
All will be revealed

He's done well enough, should have an assist for szoboszlai, but still want Mo on asap

He's been OK for me but Mo needs yo come on. Same applies for Robbo/Gomez

Robbo would leave to much space for Foden, Diaz should be giving Walker something to think about more, as it stands I'd swap Salah for Nunez.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Behind to a really poor goal to concede, although it looks like City have spotted something in our set up and capitalised on it. 
 

City just edging it, for me. But, we’ve done alright so far. We just look a bit reluctant to shoot. Bradley and Elliott seem to be having a bit of joy down our right, so it seems sensible to bring Salah on as early as possible in the second half to try and capitalise on that. 
 

Endo and Mac Allister have done okay in midfield. Nunez need to stop going offside. 
 

Plenty to play for still. But, City look dangerous on the break and could step it up a gear. If they decide to stop fucking time wasting. 

[Funkasy]

Diaz just getting nothing done with the space and time that hes got. Mane would have fucked them.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Dont think that half was bad at all. Apart from a poor first five minutes, and some terrible defending on a corner we’ve been pretty good. I have the feeling we can score at least a couple against these, it’s gonna be about keeping control and not take too much risk. If we take too much risk too early they’re likely to kill us off on the break.

 

Also a bit about quality and a cool head in the decisive moments, both Eliott and Bradley have had very good shooting chances inside their box, bit seemed to be a bit scared to take the responsibility to shoot. And of course Szoboszlai could and really should have scored.

 

This can still be done, come on you mighty Reds!!

Not offside 

Doesn't matter if he's offside

He's pushing Mac Callister backwards to stop him intercepting the ball

[Scooby Dudek]

Walker doesn't have to worry he can just foul and time waste with no issues.

[niallers]

Robbo on and salah. Both will give width and that should open up space for mac dom and nunez.

 

[Rushies tash]

The little pea roller passes to Nunez and especially Diaz have done my head in. Every time he's had to check his run because of a shit ball into his feet rather than his stride.

Don't think you'll be waiting long.

[johnsusername]

Diaz and AN Other off.
