Match Threads Man City vs Spurs - Match thread - Carabao Cup Final 2021 - KO 4:30pm

Also if the wingers aren’t told to track back. Why are we not playing Bale?!!

 

[Snarfalicious]

Got ‘em right where we want ‘em!

 

[philll]

Nine out of ten times we lump the ball forward it either lands at a City player or one of ours but it just bounces off and goes to a City player.

 

[SonicSarr]

Every team has a couple of 10 - 15 mins of ascendancy. 2nd half is virtually ours. COYS!

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

The CM area remains our problem.

Also. On a number of occasions. They played the ball out the back, outclassed by the city forwards which ends up the city CM getting it.

I know they are trying to catch a break, but it isn't happening. Pass it up the pitch quickly.

A few subs needed. Locelso is still way off the mark, not ready for this final.

 

[dirtyh]

This thread has been the highlight of the half tbh, very entertaining

 

[LDNYid]

Winks off, Ndombele on.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

Ndombele for GLC

And Id to Bale for Son in time.

Least Moura is running at them

 

[Hazelton]

This year has aged me about seven years.

 

[tooey]

Bloody hell that's as bad as it gets. Cant believe we're level. Mason and Powell need to earn their crust at half time to sort this out.

That is far from as bad as it can get.

 

[Neon_Knight_]

Jose masterclass so far.

We might look less toothless if the ref decided to take appropriate action when Man City foul us every time we counter.

 

[JayB]

Completely rode our luck. Need to change something now, Ndombele’s ability against the press would be a massive boost

 

[TEESSIDE1]

We definitely need Ndombele in the second half.

Pointless playing Kane, Son and Moura as they’re living off scraps. If Mason is hell bent on playing a suicidal defensive set up then he would be better off beefing up the midfield and taking one of the front 3 off.

 

[mil1lion]

Now a 2nd half like Wednesday please

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

Sods law Reguilon gets sent off for a soft second yellow and Man City continue to get away with tactical fouls every time we counter.

Sad. But probably true.

 

[KingKay]

All this talk of taking Lucas off he’s probably been our only shining light so far

He’s up for it today.

 

[FibreOpticJesus]

Relax fellas we’ve got this

 

[Oscar22]

Ndombele on first Winks, Bale on for Lo Celso.

Pop Lucas I where Lo Celso has been to help out Serge but also to get the ball deeper, turn and run at them. Bale on for some quality and composure up top.

 

[DCSPUR64]

Ndombele for Lo Celso please.

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

Nine out of ten times we lump the ball forward it either lands at a City player or one of ours but it just bounces off and goes to a City player.

we’re struggling to play midfield because city are so good at pressing. We need a plan to bypass the midfield

 

[Trix]

It's pissing me off that every free kick we get around half way we just pass it back to a CB, then struggle to play out. If we are going to play this deep let's at least put it in the mixer when we can.
