Lucas 3,829 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 This is where we are going to find out if City have turned the corner, or if it's just been a case of having an easy run of games since the Spurs defeat. If they don't win this game, at a time when their neighbours are leaking goals, it'a not a great sign for them going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluewolf 7,162 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I was reading the other day that Manchester Police had failed to investigate over 250 crimes throughout this year... I suspect that at least 2 of those investigations not carried out were the clear cases of fraud that United fans had to watch taking place right under their noses when they played those games against Leipzig and PSG... Hopefully a draw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ 5,368 Posted December 11, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted December 11, 2020 I don't fancy United's chances here because of 2 players in the City team, the master of magic in K.D.Bruyne and the goal-scoring machine in Sergio Agüero if he is fit, but saying that this has the making of a draw if KDB & Agüero can be held by United's fabulous defence of square head & co......

Danny 2,216 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I think we can forget how important David Silva was to Man City in that midfield and to Pep’s style. Silva wasn’t just central to City but he was central to that dominant Spanish side and the only reason he didn’t make the 2010 squad was because he couldn’t get his transfer from Valencia to City done in time and Del Bosque didn’t want any transfer distractions from players, no exceptions. There’s not many players in this City midfield that could hold the important Silva held when he played in that Spain team Defensively City haven’t replaced Kompany but I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Diaz so far on the pitch, but Kompany ran that club from top to bottom. They need that again....but they’ve not replaced Silva and it’s a big opportunity for someone like Foden to do so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,216 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 There’s a reason as to why Mahrez’s numbers are never that great, brilliant opportunity to score but he has to take it on his left.

carefreeluke 722 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 City have looked worried about Man United's counter-attack threat, this has happened before with the better teams in the league when they face United. Looks like City have been waiting for United to press them the whole game hence the slowness and passiveness on the ball and recurrent short and sideways passes around the back and with Rodri and Fernandinho. On one or two occasions United have pushed on and pressed and it's given City some good space to exploit but that's it. I don't think Rodri and Fernandinho have played a forward pass all game. Sometimes we're too quick to criticise the players for a lack of tempo in possession but sometimes it can be a manager's instruction to play that way. In saying that, it's also hard to predict what goes through Pep's head. I've turned this off through boredom which means they'll be a goal coming.

LFCMadLad 2,080 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Would it be ludicrous to suggest that Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs are nailed on for top three and the Manchester clubs will be fighting it out for fourth? If Pep after spending all that money finishes 4th this season its nothing short of gross negligence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can write City out of that race yet, they've the ability to click into gear and start a crazy winning run. Man United wont be anywhere close to winning it.

That front 6 doesn’t scare at all. Not having a proper centre forward (for Aguero) really is letting them down and a lack of Silva replacement for these tight games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
