Fine if you want to say that Ndombele played himself out of the team, but that doesn’t explain why Gio came off instead of Winks.
From the moment the substitutions were made we were utterly incapable of passing the ball forward, and it was because of the players we had in midfield. A different manager (perhaps not Jose) absolutely would have made a difference. Mason got it completely fucking wrong.
No I'm not. They are very good. I know that. I saw a severe lack of effort again today though. I think it's been well established I don't like Winks but can anybody point me to anything at all he did in 90 minutes today. Seriously anything??
To be honest, city suffocate you like that. It's pretty much always the same against city, including under Poch, it's very hard to get out of your own half, it's not unusual.I don’t mind that we are outplayed, out classed etc. What I do mind is that those players can’t even string 3 feckin passes together. It’s disgraceful that performance. Really is. Toby and Dier did well, the rest wouldn’t even get in my 5aside team.
Not Mason’s fault, when they showed him at the end there, my Mrs said ‘oh I feel sorry for him, he looks like a lad that was stood up on a date’
explains it all.
Lo Celso.Did we even have a shot on goal?
Did I say that. No I said something different. Read my post againYou think we were hard done by today? lol
