*** West Ham vs Man City *** Official match thread

[Green & Blue]

Pathetic result

[Redna]

A point is a point.
Remember those days when we couldn't hit a barn with a banjo not to mention the door.
Foden is class.
I wish a combined Sterling/Mahrez.
Would be unplayable.
Pep is perculiar.
CTID!

[PeterParker]

Besides Baldie, when are we going to address the Sterling problem?
Or are we going to ignore it again and talk about his goals when we are 2 and 3 up?

[blues2win]

14 shots one on target.

[zuricity]

getting tired on here of reading about gundo and rodri . Really, are they to blame for Mahrez and Sterlings performance ? Mahrez is awful.

[Dub City]

Mahrez offered nothing all game. Cancello our most dangerous player from the left and then moved to the right. Why the fuck change a thing that’s working?. Why Torres after coming on and getting a goal midweek gets left on the bench when we crying out for a game. Can only assume Bernardo was injured or feeling some muscle issue that he makes way before Gundogan and Mahrez.
Getting well and truely pissed off with the slow predictable shite tactics and playing your favourite lads regardless how shite we can all see they are

These two were dreadful.

Sergio injured again.
Night follows day.

Centre forward in the transfer window? Probably not

[Nick]

Sack all of the cunts

Mahrez sterling rodri gundogan- what do you offer ?


Same again tuesday pep ? Sweet, so happy.

Centre forward in the transfer window? Probably not

And Delap not even on the bench ? No centre forward option and he not given the chance. Not saying he is the answer at his age and not seen enough of him but Sterling not a striker, Mahrez at Leeds away was a disaster up there so why not give him a go

Look at all the matches we’ve lost or drawn in the past 2 years.

Line ups almost always include Rodri and Gundogan.

The problem is gundo and Rodri slow down all the counter attacks with their diagonal passing giving the opposition players time to get back - this clips the wings of the likes of mahrez who thrithe on counter attacking football.
So the real issue is that Leo has spent loads of money on players whose style of football are not aligned

[RodneyRodney]

Rodri is an anonymous amorphous immobile LUMP ; he just takes up space, while contributing nothing ; at least Gunogan moves occasionally and makes the odd shot or forward pass now and then . I cannot see why Rodri was scouted and purchased, I just can't , he just doesn't offer anything.
Mahrez is another passenger ; one good game in five , the rest of the time , a waste of space.
Garcia - too small , too slow.

He’s Spanish.

[Sparklehorse]

It’s a long time since I shouted at the TV so much.
Can someone please enlighten me at to what positive contribution to our game did these players make today:
Raz - nothing
Mahrez - nothing
Gundog- nothing
Rodri - nothing
Aguero - nothing
Cancelo - nothing (a good run for the assist, but a terrible pass to Foden, only his brilliance turned it into a goal)

I’m sorry, we are watching dog shit at the moment, and some bizarre coaching decisions are not helping.
Thank you for the two brilliant years, we are well on the way to three crap ones. Teams know exactly how to play us now, time for something different, and I mean not making a defensive swap when we need a winner.
A shambles

[Nick]

Pep looked fuming at least

[Harry Dowd scored]

I have just watched pep’s post match interview, he cut a very frustrated figure, a combination of being pissed off and indifference, very strange body language.

He should resign if hes not arsed

[budfox]

We won the fucking treble, no other fucker ever did or probably ever will.

A season or two of mediocrity isn't the end of the world.
