***City v Spurs Official Match Thread***

[aaron bond]

As satisfying as a 4-0 win last week was, you could see we’d changed nothing defensively. Wolves broke through our high line many times and had great chances. A better side would have punished us before we went 1-0 up.

Spurs have done exactly that.

Fundamentally, we’ve changed nothing defensively so we’re exposed every time the opposition attacks.

To be fair to Trafford, we are expecting him to play Ederson-style football but there is no other keeper in the world who can play football like Ederson does. If Trafford is number 1 for now, then we need to play long more often because he’s not as confident on the ball as Ederson.

I’m telling you Pep will be gone before Christmas.

Cherki very disappointing so far and that is putting it mildly. Dias signed a new contract? Needs to start fucking earning it as he has been useless for a season and a half.

[Indianablue]

Spurs are faster, stronger, calmer on the ball, organised, more determined to win the 50/50’s. How much money on the same team coming out in the second half ?

Absolutely spot on. We look weak and disjointed

100%

That half was like letting a load of kids play in the park. They’re not there to enjoy themselves, they have to be organised and that’s what’s missing.

He's the common denominator. Same highline press. Nothing wrong with that if you can defend against a break, but we haven't been able to do that for 18 months.

If Pep is a Manager he'll be able to turn it around in the second half. If he doesn't get anything from this game he can fuck off now for me, He's been given players to get results , no one to blame but himself

[zabbadabbado]

We are so easy to get at .

High press and it is job done.

Just wait for the unenforced errors.

[Sideshow Bob]

omg ake. fucking take all the time in the world.

[PeterParker]

I’m telling you Pep will be gone before Christmas.

Fingers crossed.
I am so tired of this shit.

[Indianablue]

No change at half time ? Why warm up Silva and Rodri as soon as they come out ?

[Sideshow Bob]

we are sleepwalking through this match. pathetic.

[HBlock Cripple]

Some urgency would be nice ffs

[carl_feedthegoat]

Has pep ever played the same winning team twice ?

[zabbadabbado]

The Oldies dictating the pace, So slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww teaching the new Lads how to play walking football

[city72]

Doku to the rescue ffs

[Nigels Tackle]

not our day
never is against fucking spuds is it?

[zabbadabbado]

Has pep ever played the same winning team twice ?

No.

Has to feed the ego.

We win it is down to him reinventing the Wheel.

This is the way.

[zuricity]

VAR deemed it not a penalty on Bobb then

[Indianablue]

Haaland has been shit, Why take off Marmoush?
