*** City v Everton (21 Aug) official match thread ***

Sane was in trying to score there.

Does he look like he is a winger or a defender primarily?

I'm not saying things are going great, but we need more practise, and half of the league is going with 3 at the back this season.

I feel that our attack is stymied by playing 3-5-2. We can use it in the CL or away to the top teams, but not at home.

thank you ref, for once

Last year the attach was firing on all cylinders, but the defense was a mess. This year we look solid in the back, but the attack is a bit subdued. Much better place to be at the start of the season in my opinion.

Just got to keep the pressure on. (Otter's shot was sweet)

I hear you. It has looked that way the last two games, but it looked entirely the opposite the last few pre-season games against excellent opposition.

I know...it was pre-season, but it was something that was catching my eye and many of our critics and fans.

If we can use this formation well it gives us flexibility down the road because we can utilise more than 1 formation well.

Yes, we can do well with 433/4141 but then the opposition just setup against it. We need flexibility and the season is young enough and it has shown promise to not just abandon it after 2 games. We will use 433/4141 again, I am sure.

That pass by Silva!

[Justified logic]

A Rooney Special!

Until we got not even midway through the season and hit a huge brick wall.

We created a lot of chances but were also exposed on the counter, and weren't finishing chances.

[mr_nool]

We need a big guy up there in the middle. Lazy, but class.

[PrezIke]

Another otherworldly defensive performance by someone against us. Es normal

[mr_nool]

Sané should get a month's wages docked for that. Fucking jogging back after giving the ball away. Pathetic!
