keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted August 21, 2021 I think that summed us up. Good move, Todd clear and swallowed up by players still playing hard when 5-0 up in the last minute of stoppage time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crafty Canary 495 Posted August 21, 2021 Having correctly predicted our first two results I now predict Leicester City to win 2-0. It’s too painful to think what Bournemouth will do to us midweek. Hopefully when we get our first point(s) things will look up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I won't worry yet as we're on the points total we all expected to be on, but it's not a reassuring sign. I don't think we ever played so utterly toothless two seasons ago.

WD40 720 Posted August 21, 2021 Man City have lots of quality. But Webber said he’a given Farke the pieces for us to be competitive this year. No evidence of that whatsoever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,618 Posted August 21, 2021 Man City very, very good. Always likely when a top team has been on a poor run, they smash someone. I'm sure we won't be the only team to concede 5 to them this season. Regardless, we were poor. Gianoulis can't keep letting every single cross come in down his side. He looked good going forwards last week but incredibly suspect defensively. Rupp, who I generally like, offered him naff all support today either, which didn't help.

Son Ova Gunn 165 Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Got to feel sorry for those Man City fans haven’t you. Hopefully the 3 points will help cheer them up a bit while they can only dream of being self-funded. Can’t wait till the next league game when we play another proper club doing it the right way like ourselves, bring on the foxes!

Hoolahoop14 124 Posted August 21, 2021 Really really poor performance, admittedly against the best team in the league, but I saw enough to have me concerned. We look incredibly easy to pass through, and defensively all over the place. Optimism for the season has certainly dropped somewhat since 2 weeks ago. Let’s hope we get that new CB and CDM/ball winning CM in ASAP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Webber said he's given us the pieces to be competitive this year I don't think he meant against the Champions and one of the best teams in the world. I think he meant against the teams in and around us. Burnley play on the defensive with big, physical players and still only conceded one less than we did against Liverpool. I knew this would happen, because this is a board full of football fans, or 90%-ers. There's no point judging our players vs any of the top 4, they're a completely different league (not literally, of course). That's how Leeds, with all their funding, acquisitions and coach, could still concede 5 to United. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 100m they spent on that t055 pot grealish is more than our squad is worth and probably pays 6 months of our wage bill. Poor man city must feel really sorry for us.
