Get in nico come on city

[ayrshireblue]

Nico got to be up there for young player of the year

[john@staustell]

Shouldn't Nico start along Roderi in midfield?

I'd say O'Reilly was doing OK?

Definitely

Definitely

[mr_nool]

Played my FFS wild card this weekend and was going to put in O'Reilly, but in the last minute went for Semenyo, Haaland and Guhei instead. Stupid fucking decision.

[zuricity]

Here we go we have corners and don't do fuck all, they get 1 and fucking score

A bit of a fluke but your point stands.

I think we've started good, but they do look dangerous on the counter, so we need to be cautious. And preferably score another couple of goals this half.

Get in Nico!!!!

They haven't been in the game. Dias gave the ball away unnecessarily , they go up,get an unnecessary corner.

Newcastle have had a tiring last two weeks, City need to push on against them all game long.

[Indianablue]

Oreilly on for a hattrick get in

Steady on, I'd just like our midfield and defence to get control of this game. Far too loose , giving the ball away needlessly . Might be a good sign if that Newcastle player gets taken off , he's pretty decent. Don't want to see Guimares come on though it'll turn into a battle

[Nickyboy]

Hoddle being unusually complementary about us so far tonight.

[city72]

Hard work getting on this site. Nico is pure class. Do we have a set piece coach (corners)???

[Harry Dowd scored]

Careful O’Reilly you will be dropped next game

[HBlock Cripple]

2nd half drop-off anyone?

[Indianablue]

Would like to see another goal from us or at least keep this lead till half time. Ref will probabably add about 10 minutes

[john@staustell]

2nd half drop-off anyone?

Nailed on

[Harry Dowd scored]

I rate Marmoush good footballer

[Kippax Sean]

Offside?

[mr_nool]

Lucky escape.

[Indianablue]

Khusanov would have bounced Gordon then, instead they have a dangerous free kick and we get a yellow, Thank fuck for an offside flag. He should have been marked better

[branny]

Dias off for Khus. His passing hasn't been great and now he's on a yellow. They're a one trick pony and Khus has the pace to deal with it.

.agree, Khus for Dias at half time.

Apart from the yellow, Dias is too slow.

[john@staustell]

2nd half drop-off anyone?

Nailed on

Actually if we can keep them in it, we might not drop off

[stevefromdonny]

How many times is the prick going to say he pushed him offside
