Lopes is actually a very good shot stopper, just not the type who likes to catch the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 That was a lovely ball by De Bruyne into Sterling. Those two are the real dangermen in this City team in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't a bad keepr, just not the type who can catch the ball..... .......ALSO KNOWN AS A BAD MOTHERFUCKING KEEPER. 3 minutes ago, binder said: He does not inspire confidence. The defence looks solid though. It's a shame, because he reduces a very good side to a mediocre one. All City have to do is fling half decent shots at him, until one of the riccochets lands in front of a City player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Profesor Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Pep definitely overthought this. Mirroring Lyon's 3-5-2 system was a terrible idea. They need Foden or Mahrez on the wings, otherwise it'll be tough to penetrate Lyon's defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 15, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 15, 2020 I've got my free £25 on Lyon here. I thought 10/1 was far too big to leave given the results between the two and the fact that Pep has, once again, overthought it in a big game.

Bluewolf Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I don't get why so many keepers go for the punch/fist when the ball comes in, used to have keepers that would catch the ball and that was the end of the threat. as it is they still risk it going somewhere random. Is it modern coaching that's teaching them that or do they just copy one another?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While its dangerous it also moves the ball out of the box and gives players a chance to defend again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite his theatrics and his strange reluctance to catch balls, he does make many good blocks, so he's hardly a bad keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted August 15, 2020 Author Administrator Share Posted August 15, 2020 1-1! Brilliant goal. Mahrez plays a ball down the line to Sterling, he cuts back with ease and squares to De Bruyne. Very nice finish out of Lopes' reach for De Bruyne.

Rick Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 That was always gonna happen. Lyon have been defensive from minute 1. You can’t do that against this team, they will find a way through the wall. Best bet is to go at them a bit, get in their face. I’d be bringing Dembele on. The commentary team here are an embarrassment. “Ingurland!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
