Manchester City (a) 02.05.25 8pm - Build up and Match Thread

[Jinky]

Yep. Was always going to happen. Need to take your chances. That all happened because Andre lost the ball cheaply.

 

[The Bear]

Dammit.

Poor from Andre and Gomes there. Losing the ball and missing a challenge in the same move.

 

[t3ch]

Welp

 

[Banjo]

Ffs. Lucky bastards

 

[Squeak]

Typical.... some fortune to that.

 

[Jack Regan]

And a mistake by us (Andre losing the ball) punished.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

They’ve been on top for 5 minutes and score.

 

[t3ch]

“Yellow shirts”

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Some good fortune lead to that goal there.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Munetsi has been good tonight.

 

[Jack Regan]

“Yellow shirts”

Factually accurate.

 

[Tony Towner]

Poor from Andre and Doherty

 

[t3ch]

Factually accurate.

They’re orange !

 

[Jinky]

Feel like we needed one of those chances to go in. Been flat for a while and just sitting in trying to make it hard for them.

 

[EnglishBob]

Ref is card shy

 

[The Bear]

Gomes hasn't been able to get forwards at all tonight because of how many players Man City have in that area of the pitch with their no striker formation.

It's put a lot more pressure on him and André to bring the ball out after winning it back. A mistake doing that is what led to their goal ultimately.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Nothing more predictable than KdB fouling Bellegarde there.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Nothing more predictable than KdB fouling Bellegarde there.

Na, what was more predictable was him not getting a card.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

The atmosphere is fucking appalling!

 

[Jinky]

Think we’re better than how we’re playing right now.

Dropped really deep and not offering any sort of attacking threat or sustained possession at all.
