[Wellen Wolf]

Vinicius Jnr makes the clearest dive of the night from a simple shoulder from Walker

Oh yes. Far too many experts in manufacturing free kicks and penalties on the pitch. A horrible and boring aspect of modern football.:-(

 

[jd1981]

If the opposition tactic is to foul Bellingham out the game then they won’t find many referees as kind tonight and will lose players very quickly.
I’m afraid football has moved on from the “leave one on him” approach

 

[Wellen Wolf]

Some second half forecasts:
Foden will manufacture about four free kicks and they will be chipped to Maguire at the far post who will produce nothing.
Our corners will be aimed at Maguire.
Watkins will have zero free kicks and corners aimed at him.
Maguire will exposed by Vinicius for a good chance

I don't know, wasn't so long ago that was exactly what people were doing to Adama.

Aren't you a joy.

Again very rare you get as weak referee as you did in that spurs game in 2019

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Paqueta would 100% have gone in a tournament game, doing a George Saville impression here.

 

[jd1981]

Jaoa 100% should be on a yellow twice he’s taken out Bellingham with no attempt to play the ball

Fair, although they did revolve around 4 or 5 different players, much like Brazil have tonight, and City have regularly down the years too.

It's called analysis. Welcome your comments on the accuracy of my points rather than your pathetic one liner.

 

[Lupo]

Just got back from a funeral and thought the game was kicking off late. Then realising the TV was on plus 1 and it was actually nearly half time ffs

Think it was just harmless humour

 

[sycophantia]

Apart from a few flashes it's been low on quality from both teams.

It's not analysis is it, it's critical, miserable, negative predictions.

 

[The Bear]

Chilwell and Maguire have been absolute mince. Gallagher too for that matter.

It has.

Both sides look as though they have key players not involved.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Chilwell and Maguire have been absolute mince. Gallagher too for that matter.

Chilwell is nowhere near the player he was.

 

[jd1981]

Watkins has nowhere near the presence Kane does either

 

[Tony Towner]

Fair, although they did revolve around 4 or 5 different players, much like Brazil have tonight, and City have regularly down the years too.

I don't know what else the ref in that game could do, it was calculated and cynical, but they were yellow cards and he gave them. The Kane one probably orange

 

[Wellen Wolf]

It's not analysis is it, it's critical, miserable, negative predictions.

And yours? Looking forward to them. Its not me being negative and miserable. It's Southgate.
