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

[Dubaimancityfan]

Don't know if it's been mentioned but Silva was right on top of Rooney when he was running in to score, and then inexplicably stopped outside our box and and let him in unmarked !!

Yep, didn't hear the experts in the studio picking up on that at ht, had a go at Kompany instead.

[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

Having slept on it I have calmed down slightly but I still think Pep was wrong doing that after the final whistle.

There's more important things to take from last night, but that really left a sour taste.

I for one have never warmed to Pep, and stuff like that last night won't change or help that.

Onwards and upwards.

Not seen that, mate. What did he do?

It's okay, seems he sprinted to congratulate the scorer of the own goal on the news he managed the miracle of reproduction once again. Oh, lucky world...

[phips]

and?

whether you like it or not, whether Rooney is a former United player or not that was a monumental goal last night.
Pep is class. he went over and comforted Arter last year after the Bournemouth match (granted, very diff circumstances there).
Pep just doesnt fall in line with the "everyone ever associated with United must die a slow painful death" mantra, and good for him for not. it's a game, and that was a big night for whoever scored their 200th league goal--it just so happened to be an ex-United captain.

oh btw,

Irony ? He "claims" to be a Dortmund "fan" but only posted on here the last 18 - 24 months ? most of it bollocks . Hasn't got a fucking clue about City , the fans or Manchester . Have a look at at Rooneys twitter account and what the ex rag cunt put up last night and how blues have responded to fat granny shagging cunt .

im utterly impressed with your math skills. july 2011-aug 2017 = 24 months/2 years. got it.

and, please, for the sake of everyone on this board (apparently), educate me on what it means to be a real fan?
should i wish for United players to get injured? should i wish Rooney dies in a car accident? should i go to matches and shout derogatory phrases at fans of other clubs and opposing players? is that what it means to be a fan? apparently I've been a fan of multiple teams in multiple sports for decades in all of the wrong ways. please, tell me the right way to do it since, as you've made clear, im doing it all wrong and i fail to understand Manchester City Football club and its fans. enlighten me. come down off your high horse and tell a plastic fan like me how its really done.

Pep must stop continually trying to be over smart,over complicated by trying to put square pegs into round holes.

Leroy is not ready & may never be suitable to be a LWB. He was clearly uncomfortable in his role but not wholly guilty for the goal ( Vincent,Dino,Daveed ).

The back three,and their individual roles/positions are very much work in progress and every coach in the league will be targeting it.

Stick to the basics Pep,stop trying to prove how smart ( or not ) you are. The smartest thing you can do is to get 3 points per game !!

Btw his running round antics at the end of the game are indicative of a guy living right on the edge.

Read his books. They are very good but also quite worrying. The intensity at which he lives his life is scary and can't last !!

He would've got the three points if we had put away our chances, that was playing with 3-5-2.

We were slow out of the blocks granted, we didn't really start to find our rhythm until around 25 minutes in, then we had two glorious opportunities to score ( give the opposition chances like that and you could bet your mortgage they wouldn't fail to take them), a stupid error later and the opposition score with their only clear chance of the game, that isn't the system's fault, that is individual's fault.

And.......the individuals have to be suitable for the system & vica Vera's which was why Pep made six changes to the set up,the first after 18 minutes when it was clear the left side wasn't working.

Sane had a mare, topped off with a stupid attempt to keep a ball in. Pep had Everton worked out, we missed chances as with last season and we end up with a draw playing 10 v 12.

The system didn't change after 18 minutes, two players swapped places.

The system didn't change until Bernardo came on with 20 minutes to go.

This is a very fair summary but I would just add that Sane had a mare playing wing back in the defeat by Girona last week as well and where he was also responsible for the mistake that cost us the goal. In addition his performances on tour and last season in that position were often similarly poor. What do you make of Pep's decision to persist in playing Sane there when he had the option to play Danilo as at Brighton?

100%, what we will see is Rotation under Pep, we had zero options last season. Pep will frustrate the bejesus out of some fans this season as he uses the squad. Pre-season and the last game are history for Pep.

Pep is a stubborn beggar and seems to think he's got to try to be an alchemist.

Keep it simple please. Best,in form,eleven in their best positions.

Let's just get the points rather than trying to make them.
