I worry that Conte has a plan A but when we aren't playing well he doesn't have a plan B to fall back on. Something needs to change because that was fucking terrible.
I agree he should get a shot, but I think offensively he is still really green so in terms of output I am just not sure we will see it or Conte will accept it. Doherty for me is the best fit at the moment.
Fuck could you imagine how much fun city would have against this passive mob.Lucky City was cancelled on Saturday then.
Sorry mate I disagree the team has got away with it so far against a few teams but tonight have been deservedly punished.
I didn't see the game because I'm out of the country right now, but if it's anything like the rubbish I have seen to date I have not missed anything.
The wingbacks and the midfield create next to nothing and the forward line can barely control the ball and bring people into the game.
Are you happy with the start to the season then?
It’s ‘result is everything’ football this season but we know we can be good to watch too because the second half of last season showed us that. Not sure what’s going on but the lack of movement and the constant misplaced passes are alarming. It’s hugely dull to watch though, I completely agree.Yes. But what would you rather watch this or peak poch?
Conte is an amazing manager. I just find us incredibly dull to watch.
Surely must be due to his injury recovery as I agree it’s baffling he’s had so few minutesAgree
Im not sure why Doherty isn't even getting a chance, but I would have him back in the next game.

Is it?Bit extreme lol
343 is why we're too slow and one paced. Our front three can't play against a back three. They've looked bad in the majority of games against one, and most teams are playing with a back three or reverting to one out of possession against us. Our midfield get over run and it's easy to cut out our passing lanes. We've actually played some good attacking football against a back five the few times we went with a 352 formation, and I think it's something we need to try again.
For the next game it's not as radical as it sounds imo. Adds to collective responsibility whilst reducing the individual burden and damages confidence less (especially that of Son).Son and Kane has to be benched together. Perhaps that's an ideal way of nursing everyone's egos. Richarlison and Kulu can handle the front while Skipp has to play soon and beef up the middle.
Mate what has last season got to do with anything.Did you enjoy the run in at the end of last season?
Kane and Son haven’t suddenly become shit, they’re world class and their form will kick in again at some point and we’ll be punishing teams again.
