Lost count of the number of times one of our defenders has dived in missed the challenge and created a huge gap. If we tidy up and start winning some duals we should have more than enough about us here for the 3pts.
Blackburn to score as we keep giving them the ball then we might speed the game up, even the commentator says it is like walking football. Coyle gets the ball and stops and sends it backwards thought he was playing wing back
We’ve only won one away game in 2023?! Not like that’s a monkey on our backs or anything. Remember when not winning at home became a meme under Shota?
We've been pretty poor since they went down to 10... Not sure why we are so keen to always slow things down
Played some decent stuff at times. Just that final ball or finish is lacking. Strange that we’ve let them back into the game after they went a man down.
Usual against ten men. Way too slow. Seem to have little idea how to pass and move the ball or themselves quicker.
We looked better 11 v 11 since going to 10 men have looked less threatening. Hopefully, just wearing them out, and will come stronger 2nd half.
Yes the wonders of modern technology! To think there was a time I would watch City games on teletext LOL
Not there today but from the comments it sounds rather like Norwich away. A central midfield of Seri and Slater, and two central midfield players being used wide will not stop a team playing through us. Felt all summer that our biggest need is to find a number 6 who can close things down in midfield a la Smallwood.
Always tough playing against 10 men but it doesn't help when we politely hold onto the ball while they get all 10 behind it!
Delap has looked a handful. Twine has looked dangerous running at them but his passing/shooting looked a little rusty. Coyle seems reluctant to take on their defender. I’d take Traore off and replace with Vaughn.
