Man City v Spurs: Do they know it's match thread time at all

Diarmuid · Dec 16, 2017

Second half will be a huge test for Poch and team.. surely we can put up a better fight.. if not might aswell just throw in the towel for the season

Clever fouls from city aggressive pressing which we are not able to match.need to press much more as a team and more confident in possession.

I've never joined the bandwagon with winks like most on this forum. He's very tidy but mostly sideways and backwards.

Going in 1-0 isn't bad, we are still in the game. An absolute shocker of a set piece to concede. We are struggling with De Bruyne mega press and Sane finding acres of space

Still in this game however

I really thought Madrid was his stepping out performance. He was so confident but now he just looks shot. Certainly an issue going forward

Bit sloppy under pressure
but this is how I like to see my team lose

you so call supporters on here kill me , city are atm best club side in Europe if not world football , we are missing our club talisman in Tolby our steel in victor who allows deli more freedom to roam and link the play with kane and also missing sanchez who was part of a tremendous back three , please will you give the lads some slack .

4 at the back with no obvious DM. Could well be another Poch blunder in a big game. Hope not.

So clearly the wrong formation by Poch. Trying to go toe to toe with city it’s embarrassing he can’t see it. Southampton and West Ham put up a better show than we have playing 352.

Nice to see the referee letting the little things go, you know the kind of thing, kicking people in the face and no red card.
But do you know what, we're going to win this.

I don't see how we can complain on that front, city could and should have had a penalty.

There is a clear bias from officials for the money sides in this league, it’s as obvious as a slap in the face.

And yet people think we don’t have a problem with our officials.

Oh come on nothing do with ref tonight.

This game is bypassing Dembele completely. He does not like this pace at all.

His legs are on the way out.

rossdapep · Dec 16, 2017

Dare I suggest we should have started with Sissoko and had him support Trippier?

The Apprentice · Dec 16, 2017

Lamela and Aurier would be a start I assume? Alli and Trips off.

Drop Eriksen into a tighter 3 with Winks and Dembele.

God. Could you imagine if he brought Sissoko on at HT?

He will 100% come on, maybe not at half time, but Poch will turn to mussel. Can see it being Winks for Sissoko

Don’t get the comparison? Winks is a ball player Parker was a destroyer. Winks has been off form for a few weeks now, if he is not keeping possession and ticking the play over? What is he doing? Sissoko has pace power strength and athleticism, he will/would have offered more than winks in this game

I see a lot of diagonal/backwards passes and a bunch of pirouettes, but not a lot of creativity.

Trips being exposed by Eriksen not helping him.

To an extent yes. But his defending 1 on 1 has been poor. Also he absolutely bottled it against Sterling. Proper pussy stylie

DiamondLites · Dec 16, 2017

Get Aurier on, at least he will give Sane a reducer or 2 as opposed to Trippier’s matador defence

I'm not going to write him off just yet but he's not bossing things like he had done before.

Yeah he puts this image out that he is quiet and just an all around professional, but the fame has got to him a bit. Always fiery but now getting a bit more of a holier than now ego

Poison pen letters ahoy! (Joke?)

They don’t have any standards mate, this league is rotten to the core, from the money polluting it to the shit standard of officiating.

Don’t hold your breath.

I agree.. Its just disgusting how low the officials can get to, even to being spineless and Ball-less.

fatpiranha · Dec 16, 2017

Sane has so much space. We have to do something about it or we're going to get destroyed in the 2nd half.
