Manchester City (a)

[Tribute]

City’s run in is piss easy… if they all tried to play footy on the front foot like us. Most of them don’t. They sit deep and soak up pressure. With any luck, they’ll be dirty and rough them up a bit too.

We’ve got United and The Ev… and on this weekend’s performance, we’ll smash both. Spurs will be UCL winners form one week and Scunthorpe the next. We need to play them on a day when we’re bang at it and score early…

Yes we have the tougher games but City have dropped points against Spurs, Palace and… someone else.. recently. Unexpectedly too.

One thing today proved was De Bruyne's class, as if it was in question. Too good for that cunt of a club.

City should've won but didn't. Hopefully a seed of doubt

[dizzycat]

After the poor start that is a decent result. Just got to keep playing, they will be under more pressure because they have something to.lose.

[Exiled_red]

City were the better side the first half at least, I don't think we helped ourselves as we were really poor there were alot of mistakes of our own making, we looked nervous and either without a plan or not sticking to it. I think City should probably have won it, that said there was a huge slice of luck for their first goal. A draw is a good result for us given how the game went, but it leaves the title in City's hands and I fear we will just miss out again as it seems we are more likely to slip up than them.

Also not wanting to have a pop at the side but I really feel that our midfield needs to be improved, City dominated that today, earlier in the season Chelsea dominated it as well I feel at times that is often where we are off in the big games, we can dominate the game with possession when we have the ball but I feel that area can be got at by side who have a go.

[Slinky Skills]

100% they are. They have more technical players and younger players. They can keep the ball for long periods whereas we're constantly chasing it. You need young legs in the middle against them.



Obviously a draw is better than losing but they're winning all their games.

You don't know they will win all their games. I don't think they will personally.

Of course I don't know. But previous says they have a good chance.

[Buzzo]

We’ve just got to keep on believing. I reckon we need to win them all for it to happen.

But. We play Utd at home next, we win that and we go top until City play. There’s 7 games and 21 points left to play for.

I still think we will do it.

They've drawn 3 and lost 1 of their last 9 in the league and if that penalty had been awarded v Everton it could possible have added a 5th game where they dropped points. I wouldn't be so certain they are going to go and win 7 on the bounce

We’ve got to believe, what’s the point in not?

If they play like they did today they will - they were superb but we managed to come back. It’s the cliche of one game at a time point of the season - I hope to **** they get knocked out of the CL

Yep. Get knocked out, heads drop and they get a draw or two in the League.

Then Madrid semi final and Athletico win. We beat Villarreal in other semi and have to beat Athletico to win the CL

Gutted

[BigChief]

Hopefully the Peds that Bernardo and KdB have been taking wear off by Wednesday and Atletico do them. Like mentioned above, heads drop and pants get soiled for Saturday.

City were better but had the defence and midfield been more composed on the ball it could have been different.

Too often they just panicked and cleared. I also think LFC didn’t get Salah involved enough In the game.

There were at least 2 or 3 instances where he was well positioned for the pass and it never got through. Sadio was great, nice assist from Mo for that goal too.

I thought Firmino might have helped if he came on earlier in the second half as he’s good at taking the ball in tight spaces, turning and laying off to others.

Game passed Thiago by a bit.
