Hafnia Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 3 minutes ago, Matt Tiger said: FFS Pickford he’s had a hell of a match but that’s horrific You serious? He made a couple of smart stops but has had his head up his arse all night. his barracking of other players has been absolutely ridiculous. Just before his blunder he was marching out shouting his head off. Tarkowski is livid with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 We haven’t stopped fighting for this, our fans give up before the players do these days. This is City and no matter what form they are in, they do have class players. We’ve fought hard and still tried to have a go at them. We should be proud of the team we are becoming.

Hafnia Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 Genuinely comfortable with the team and where we are heading, Pickford needs to reset his head.

Newty82 Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 Ah well. Out done by a much better team. We haven't helped ourselves but still. We could be in a bit of a shit run just now as I don't see us getting anything at Wolves...they're on it just now...and then its home vs Villa...also on it just now. However, we all know we'll have shit runs. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Toffee Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 I was expecting a bit more from Beto.. oh well we keep fighting. I like Jack Grealish but between complaining and diving not sure how he finds time to play football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 Can’t knock the hard work but we create a lot of the ball and shadow chasing because of our own poor play, Garner and Gomes guilty of giving the ball away for too easily, we could hardly string 2 or 3 passes together before giving the ball away for long periods of the game. Beto worked hard great on him but his ability to hold onto the ball and bring others into the game wasn’t there. I admire hard work but on it’s own it’s meaningless if you don’t add some ability in possession of the ball, fortunately for us we have proven in other games we can add the ability required to get you over the line, so not to upset about tonight’s game we will bounce back and bring back more control and ability to our game to go with the hard work.

Popular Post Romey 1878 Posted December 28, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 We didn't disgrace ourselves out there tonight. First half we more than held our own against them and did very well at negating their threat as much as possible (you're never going to limit them completely), took our chance when it came and I thought we were worthy of our lead really. Second half it was like they had 12 men on the pitch in all honesty. They really upped their level and were finding space everywhere, and we really struggled to get to grips with them. It was telling that even Mykolenko was getting murdered that half. We were still trying though and we never threw in the towel. The third goal (and the way it came about) puts more of a downer on the result but City are a phenomenal football team and they toy with and destroy much better sides than us. So it is what is, there's no point dwelling on it. One thing, though, there's absolutely no chance we get the penalty they got tonight. None whatsoever. On to Wolves where we'll get the win.

memmaclub2 Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 I don’t think we can be to hard on them. Pen and DCL miss are big moments. On another day we get a well earned point. City are a team you have to stand back and say beaten by a better side. We are staying with teams like city and spurs and disappointed with the result that is a big difference to last season.

Romey 1878 Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Across spells with Burnley and Everton, Sean Dyche has failed to win any of his 14 Premier League games against Pep Guardiola (D1 L13). Only Steve Bruce (P17 D4 L13 vs Alex Ferguson) has faced an opposing manager more often in the competition’s history without ever tasting victory. Everton lost a Premier League game in which they went 1-0 up for the first time since January (a 1-2 loss vs Southampton), ending their 17-game unbeaten run when scoring first. Manchester City have gone 1-0 down in seven Premier League games this season (doing so in four of their last five games), as many times as they did in the entirety of 2022-23. However, the Citizens have lost just two of their last 12 league games when trailing at half time (W7 D3). No Everton player has been involved in more Premier League goals since Sean Dyche's arrival than Dwight McNeil (13 - 7 goals, 6 assists). He has five goal involvements in his last six league games (2 goals, 3 assists). Six of Julian Alvarez’s last seven Premier League goals have put Manchester City one goal in the lead, with the other drawing them level against Wolves in September.

RuffRob Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Wasn't expecting anything against either Spurs or City. The away win against Burnley was far more important than these two game. Bit of a defensive howler for the the third - but to me that the best time to get one out of your system, in a game you have pretty much already lost. grabbing a point or so againts City is not what will define our season.
