Consigliere Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Pretty poor goal to concede but City have looked the more threatening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 KDB's giving us a pasting. We need to get Schneiderlin in for Fellaini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 City is pressing alot better than we are. For the goal our frontline just stood off the ball and allowed the pass to be played under no pressure. Yeah, this game was always going to be the true test of how good Fellaini is in the deep lying midfielder role. I still maintain that that isn't his best position and KdB is exposing that. And now a 2nd goal. Don't see a way back for us. City have dominated this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercenaryChef Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 City look sublime. The red devils may not have spent enough money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MercenaryChef Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Bravo with a fine Joe Hart impression. Zlatan just being zlatan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brAnthelAstgreenseer Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 City toying with united. Just like that they give a gift to IBRA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 A goal from nothing gives us a sniff. Still don't think it will be enough. City are simply a much slicker outfit than we are at this stage. The media hype making us and City favourites for the title has given the impression that we are better than we actually are. Still think that a 3rd/4th place finish is more realistic than a genuine title challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 If it were me I'd get Rashford, Schneiderlin and Herrera in for Lingard, Fellaini and Zlatan (who's done absolutely bugger all apart from the goal). Suspect it'll more likely be Herrera for Fellaini but we're definitely going to see Rashford at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brAnthelAstgreenseer Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 mkhitaryan has also done nothing this game . Need to sub him as well. I don't think we can win this one based on the first half performance we are absolutely nowhere near City . Bravo does give me some hope though.

Consigliere Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Mkhitaryan had a disappointing half as well. He looks lethargic and his pressing in non-existent. Ibra should not be taken off. Granted he didn't do much apart from the goal but he can create something out of nothing. Bravo's mistake was hardly a 'gift'. Ibra had a lot still to do (his technique was impeccable) and most strikers wouldn't have scored that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Just now, Consigliere said: Ibra should not be taken off. Granted he didn't do much apart from the goal but he can create something out of nothing. Yeah, but if we can get a player on instead who can constantly create stuff we'll be better off than creating nothing and hoping for Zlatan to create something out of it. My first thought was bring Rooney off, but Rooney's actually been our only player who's done anything good, so he should stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought was bring Rooney off, but Rooney's actually been our only player who's done anything good, so he should stay. Rashford is on and is already having an impact. Think it is better to have Ibra on the field - someone capable of converting those chances even if his general play is not quite up to standard.

polishgenius Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Yeah, taking Mkhitaryan off and putting Rooney right seems like a good solution too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Antony Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Great game. De Bruyne was awesome, easily motm. Fernandinho was also a stand out. Bravo was awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Terrible first half, good in the second. Herrera is a surprisingly useful deep-lying midfielder, allowing Fellaini and Pogba to go forward and do more of what they're good at. Concerning how many of our players got knackered. I mean City's did too but Bailly could barely walk at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
