This is bad…Manure were taking this bunch for lunch in the Manchester derby…
The opening 10 minutes or so we were playing quickly, and had a few counters that were promising. City have shut that down since though.
This must be part of a cunning plan.
Matter of time before City score here.
Dont help our best midfielder is lost at RB
i have a bet going with my mate. he says we get 2 shots on goal this half, i said we will be lucky if we get one… who ever loses buys all the rounds in the 2nd half
They all look scared shitless. Best hope we play into the game soon or City will be 1 or 2 up
We need to stop playing Dom at RB. It’s a hard watch.
One way traffic
Get the fucking ball up the pitch…fgs
omg, Dom!
Geez, 1 vs 31 passes in the final third.
Need to get the ball and make City defend, even if only on a counter. Their weakness this year is really a function of mediocre defence
Kerkez has saved us a couple of potential goals
Thought we’d try to take the game to them today given how weak they look in midfield.
This is a weird performance so far.
Super ball Mac
Isn’t the idea of us playing at the back to eventually get the ball into the feet of our CM’s and play from there?
Pass Macca, that’s more like it.
I hope it is not one round for every shot, might be a thirsty half
Let’s show them how to take corners…
Jeez, I didn’t realise Gakpo was on the pitch!
Midfielders dont ask for the ball anymore. Mac Allister is jogging back to pretend he wants it, Gravenberch is taking up that weird half space that is vertically ahead of Mac. You can see they don’t feel confident that they can play through City and this bizarre build up pattern we seem to be trying this season hasn’t worked a single time that I can remember.
