Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted September 27, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted September 27, 2020 There've always been some flaws in Man City defensively. I think today showed they're even worse than we realised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously City are not rock solid but that is a really ridiculous implosion. And from 1-0 up as well when they were in total control. Astonishing really. It was almost as if taking Fernandinho out for that young kid up front just totally over exposed them. Why did Pep do that? Three penalties they have given away today. THREE. That is shocking discipline. Their heads just went. It's only the 2nd game of the season and Pep is under immense pressure now. Without a doubt, this is the toughest point in his career right now. None of the bullshit handballs either. All three were soft but all three were totally clumsy from their defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He manages that tomorrow I may as well withdraw my previous comments on him much like yours on not wanting to win the premier league. I never once said i didnt want to win the Premier League though?

Yep, a truly shoddy defensive display from them, there were signs of it in the first half as well, we were so piss poor in the first 20 minutes yet it seemed like the minute we got one break on them they just lost their heads. Pep's football has always had its flaws. I think it's almost suicidal football without the right personnel - which they didn't have today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6666 1,310 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I don't think buying a defender based on how good of a central midfielder they'd be is a good idea... If the opposition don't want to attack that might work but Pep isn't at Barcelona or Bayern Munich here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the argument was that Spanish teams don’t defend, they just play open and try to attack. Unlike the English teams like Stoke etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBC based in Salford and most of Tory England (including Leicester) are worrying that Liverpool might win it again. Hopefully Everton, because that will reveal the real hatred of Liverpool that it was always about. Remember when English people tried to get the league cancelled because Liverpool were 22 points clear? Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man City didn't even have that many other chances? Rodri is bitter. Not seen Pep's comments but imagine he's just as sour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
