What i posted. Got some guests round so will read all the **** here later.
Now onto todays game:
Abject, Conte and his pragmatic football. To be fair we restricted their chances and the tactics were working but we have absolutely nothing up top. We play 5 at the back against 1 striker aguero and let City stroke it about. However, as soon as we dropped 1-0 down, what i witnessed was shambolic. We needed to win today and we played for a draw. When we went a goal down i was hoping for some changes but nope, just watch City stroke the ball about and longball it to hazard.
Unbelievable that he didn't make 1 attacking change until the 75th minute and then 2 more in the last 5. All we did was watch city play and we didn't press at all when we were going to lose. At least have a go and change formation and attack. They played a cup final, thursday and today whilst we had a week off.
Unfortunately, Fabregas had an absolute shocker so Stan can rightly pillorise him. I will say Fab was brave but other than that, constantly lost the ball with some awful long passes. Pedro much the same except it was his short passes although i will give him the benefit of the doubt that half the time was because he intercepted the ball himself.
This is why long term, Conte is not the answer if we refuse to impose our will on other teams
