***City vs Forest*** Official Match Thread***

[Blue In Bolton]

We can have all the possession we want, but if our manager can't recognise players that are not at it , and KDB was poor today and wasteful of chances, then Pep needs bollocking. 5 MINS for Alvarez is piss poor.

Playing three at the back as well when it doesn't fucking work also deserves a kick in the bollocks for Pep.

[Outcast]

Fuck me we were so arrogant today, strolling around like we're 5 up. Just pathetic

[aaron bond]

Simply abysmal.

The final passes and the finishing from the players was atrocious.

Pep's tactics and lack of subs...there are no words.

It doesn't matter what Arsenal do, we are just not good enough this season. United are catching us at this rate.

[PeterParker]

It’s the three on the back. It’s the constant fucking around with the back four and the constant lack of subs.

Missed chances, agree, but we allowed again, for the million time, their only chance to go in.
It’s the Sisyphus syndrome. Every time the same shit.

[carl_feedthegoat]

We will lose Alvarez if pep continues taking the piss with him .

I’ve said it , as have others , pep is the worst manager in The league for usage of his subs.

He is fucking shit at it ffs !!

[Sparklehorse]

Two things….4 mins of injury time a forest player lies on the ground for a minute and ref blows 4:08. And I didn’t know that elbows can be used to play someone onside. That’s where the VAR line was for their goal. Bent as fuck. Having said that we should have been out of sight with the chances that were squandered.

[london blue 2]

Can only blame the players for consistently missing chance after chance. Raging.

[Dubciteh]

The rags will win this league.

Haaland offers nothing if hes missing chances like that. One of the most one sided games I have seen in a while yet we all knew it was coming.

[Harry Dowd scored]

A lot saying 1-1 written all over this

Fuckin 20 minutes left when I posted that, why no subs, if I could see it why couldn’t Pep.

[Indianablue]

i would have put a bet on my house he will whistle in the 94th minute

4 minutes minimum to be added and one of their players down in that period for at least a minute so he blows bang on 94. Another wanker ref.

Dont blame the ref mate, you could see in the first half what the pattern of the game would be. One goal was never enough and we were piss poor in front of goal. I just dont see why Alvarez isn't partnered with Haaland when we knew we would dominate. Forest used everyone of tgeir subs to freshen up the team and start to chase us down and it paid off. A big 2 points lost but it was out own fault. We can whinge about conspiracy and VAR until the cows come home but we are kidding ourselves. We squandered our possession, chances and our bench today. Got to do a lot better. Our siege mentality and fighting team spirit lasted a fucking week

[Beefymcfc]

We had enough chances to win that game so can only be down to us. Nice football does not win you games and once again, the oppo’s first shot on target gets them a goal. How the fuck does that keep happening?

As for the ref, another shit cunt who gives them everything, even allowing the 4 minutes added time to have about a minute and half play.

Clutching at staws. We had million chances to put this to bed.

[Harry Dowd scored]

I thought the scene was set when Arsenal scored the fluke goal and won after being shit.

[london blue 2]

Fucking Phil foden through one on one and turns into Sterling.

I think I’m due a break from this game.

[aaron bond]

Realistically, we will probably need to win 12 of our last 14 games to win the league. That just isn't happening this season.

We're too inconsistent.

[blues2win]

23 shots. 10 Corners. 5 big chances missed. Culprits Rodri Foden Haaland Laporte. Ugh.

[s1ty m]

The ref was terrible. Not blaming that but he is a fucking cheat.

KDB, worst I've ever seen him play.

No subs. Awful in-game management.

Half the side swanning about, never ends well.

The equaliser coming was horribly obvious, we can quite reasonably expect the great manager to maybe make a couple of adjustments. But no. Fucking shit.

Forest are horrible. Alehouse cloggers, etc. But they looked more likely in the last 20 minutes, which says far more about our weaknesses.

…….as I said, but the extra minute might have helped and the goal looked offside.

Forest had four shots with only one on target which they scored with. One fucking shot on target one fucking goal again.

[blues2win]

The one goal we scored was a belter. Very difficult to hit a ball rolling across you. Wasn’t a good chance at all.
