Soylent Brown Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 The referee has been awful. Really not a fan of all the holding and shoving that is being allowed these days. Spockydog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to learn how to bloody pass of course, but if we can get him confident and not feeling like he needs to justify his existence constantly, he could be great for us.

AncalagonTheBlack Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Milner had Foden in his pocket tonight! Gomez was excellent, Virgil was good too. To be fair we should have scored a second , if only Nunez had passed to Salah instead of shooting . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consigliere Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 My Benfica supporting buddies say that Nunez is really dangerous playing on the counter when he has lots of space to exploit but tends to struggle to get involved in a game against low blocks due to his passing being poor and his hold up play and movement not being great either. He is a good finisher and has a great shot on him though we've not seen enough of that thus far this season. ants 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we’ll find out if it helps. Gomez looked both skilled and confident throughout the game, and perhaps it is perhaps because he knows he can stay with Haaland. But really, Healthy Gomez is as good as any other defender, so it shouldn't be a surprise. Taylor's officiating was variable, moving between bad to oblivious with regular excursions to inconsistent. I guess this makes for an "exciting" game, but it is also likely that my neighbors don't need to hear obscenities shouted so early in the morning.

I know I'd prefer Arsenal to City winning the league though that's not saying much. I'd prefer pretty much everyone except United over City.

Unless Liverpool turn it around then it's 3 from 4. The season is long! I think talk of us being anywhere close to the title is far fetched, but if we're anywhere close come January, we should strengthen on the wings & at CM.

City are not going to roll over and let Arsenal win the league. It’d be nice to think somebody other than City will win the league but I’m not seeing it. I don’t think that should undermine how we view Arsenal’s season by the way, just because they don’t overhaul this City juggernaut doesn’t mean they haven’t been excellent.

The difference being that in 2015/2016 there was no team in the league nearly as good as this City side. Would be nice if another team (other than Liverpool) win it though.

baxus Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 @ljkeane, @Consigliere I'm not a betting man, but if I had to place money on who wins the league this season I would would put it on City. Despite the great position they're in at the moment I still think Arsenal's not likely to win the league, but the whole point is that we thought the same for Leicester. And as far as big clubs having a bad season, we have Liverpool, Chelsea and United all performing below expectations (unrealistic as some of those expectations may be), and we can say the same for City, too. Not that City is out of the title race or anything, but with the squad at their disposal and having one of the best managers in the world, we all thought at the beginning of the season they'd be running away with it at this point already. P.S. I didn't forget Tottenham, don't worry. I think they'll stumble sooner or later and find it funny how everyone sees them as all but guaranteed top 4 place.
