Match Day Thread City v/s United

Aguero went down like a sack of sh.it. I reckon my Gran could deck him.

 

It was bound to be. Btw I thought City pressed well and we couldnt keep the ball at times because of it. Typical Pep.

They were faster, sharper and physically stronger at getting to the ball. I think their finishing let them down. They were so desperate to score they lost their composure in front of goal. Having said that, I think you're right - we should have been far more attacking.

 

I think we were more guilty of that than them, the amount of times the ball landed between 2 or 3 of our defenders with lots of space to play and all they did was hoof it clear. We had chances to get control of the ball and counter but wasted them through panic defending.

 

A good point for UTD with a weakened team

 

I'm happy that we got a point last night, Considering the players we had out there as well, plus the injuries we have as well, No complaints from me whatsoever.

 

Jose outwitted Pep yesterday. What did people expect when some of our key players are unavailable: Zlatan Pogba Mata rojo and many others. On top of this there are matches coming thick and fast ?

With the same circumstances Moyes would have been crushed and LVG too. A point is not ideal but it keeps the RS needing wins and no room for error. To keep that we simply cannot afford to slip up against Swansea.

 

Just watching the 'highlights' from last night, not that there are many.

How Herrera didn't score at the end of the first half I will never know. **** sake.

 

"I think City are one of the best teams in the Premier League going forward but basically they lacked ideas. They missed the injured David Silva who is clever enough to see a little pass that opens up a team who are set up like that." - Chris Waddle

I have to say that analysis such as the only from Chris infuriates me. What exactly makes City one of the best teams in the league when their failure has been as bad as United's? Why are they always looked on as one of the best yet the results suggest otherwise? It's like Kompany suggesting they felt in complete control of the game yet they couldn't get a decent effort on goal. It's as though there is reality and there is FIFA17 fantasy that analysts earth to pass judgements.

True enough. They all seem to toe the party line that City have ' the best' squad so therefore are, or should be, the best team.

The truth is that I think the penny is starting to drop that they've blown their big chance to 'dominate for decades' and that Chelsea and Spurs have over taken them and we're back right on their shoulders. We'll soon be back in front.

In that period of dominance they won two league titles. Two.

Typical City, they can't even ****ing dominate right.

 

United lowest possession ever last night

So?

 

Wow, the Portuguese Pulis really put City under the cosh last night. And blaming Aguero for getting Fellatio sent off, lol, what a prick, he makes Arsene's stock 'I didn't see it' answer seem entirely plausible.

 

We are looking to get 3 points on Sunday, if we are to stay up, going to be interesting.........

 

Not sure about three but I wouldn't be at all suprised if you got one.

 

Been a very bad year for us, what with the Yanks taking over, and poor transfers to strengthen the squad, still we still hanging in there on a shoestring...............

 

I know dude, I live in Swansea (no plastic jibes please, there's this thing called Swansea Uni that people from the north west end up at)) and was at the Stoke game last weekend.
Cracking game but a bit deflating to come our and find Hull had matched it.

My boys will be gutted if Swans go down but they'll soon get used to going to championship games!
Hopefully won't happen, although I want us to beat you tomorrow, sorry!

 

You won't. In fact, you'll be lucky to get a draw
