***City v Scum of the Earth Official Match Thread***

[PeterParker]

I don't think there is any surprise on what the rags are doing. Heavy pressing and 7 players behind the ball.
The problem is that we don't have a plan B.

Plan B?

What’s Plan A?

[ruralblue]

Get Rodri off at half time and get young Phil on.

Or a Silva, Yaya etc

[mr_nool]

I seriously think they have a higher possession percentage than we do. Baffling.

[Harry Dowd scored]

Surely Mahrez has to be hooked for foden of Torres

Hard to argue that.

Except Fern and KDB, up front we are terrible in every way. Sterling again absent, I have no idea why are we still insisting with him vs Rags & Criminals.

It looks like Pep is more preoccupied not to lose rather than win.

Yep. I would take any of Bernardo, foden or torres above mahrez at this point.

[carl_feedthegoat]

Sterling Jesus and Mahrez absolute dog shit...Mahrez being the worst.

[blues2win]

That was poor from City. Rodri off and Foden imo. Mahrez should have scored and Jesus had a half chance. Not sure United have created much tbf.

[sheblue]

That's the longest warm up I've ever seen. When the match starting?

Wait until the 85th minute.

[BrianF]

Piss poor again , slow and predictable. We seem to have lost our mojo.

[branny]

Surely Mahrez has to be hooked for foden of Torres

Could take any of the front three off. All have had a decent chance each but not much else. Sterling has had a couple of his beat half the team runs which always end with him being dispossessed.

[CTID Hants]

Pogba should be in a yellow at least two blatant fouls where he made no attempt at the ball.

Lindelof also going in heavy more than once.

[Hazy2]

Need to up it. We’re not the threat we once were. Games like these have always gone pear shaped.

[City64]

Absolute dog wank

[Beefymcfc]

Not sure what I’ve just watched there. Felt like the Rags had the majority of possession and better chances but only 1 on target for each. Their press has been sustained and far more than we’ve done and I just get the feeling that Pep is biding his time as this is not what we’d expect.

Thought Jesus and Mahrez should’ve done better.

[BrianF]

I remember in the old days players were buzzing for these games, some of these players can't be arsed.
