WBA v City - Live Thread

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 12:22 pm

First topic message reminder :

So...what's everyone hoping for in the United v Spurs game? A battering for the rags would be hilarious. A win for them, not so much. A draw would good, as long as we take advantage of that later this afternoon.

Will Sergio start and finally get his 178th goal?

Let's hope we can get back to some dazzling football. The last 2 games haven't been great...but we won both.

I can see WBA doing what Burnley and Wolves did. Sit with a 6-man defence, 3 in MF and a lone striker...and let us have the ball. That means we need to make sure we get width, drag them across the pitch and them have a quick change of direction, get in behind in the spaces and take our chances when they come.

Don't give them easy free kicks around our area....be disciplined when they have the ball, but break quickly using our pace against their slow CB's when we win it back.

Any streams...please post them on this thread.

Bloody international break after this weekend again.

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:43 pm

very sloppy again

by Nijinsky Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:44 pm

Easier to score

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:44 pm

atrocious shot from kev

Piss poor since the 3rd went in

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:50 pm

we should have had at least 6 this game

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:51 pm

west brom have been there for the milking

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:51 pm

and then they score

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:52 pm

Pep really should be kicking some arses

by Nijinsky Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:52 pm

Sane has been shit the 2nd half

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:52 pm

most of the players habem't turned up this 2nd half

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:52 pm

but we must have had 3 or 4 clear cut chances and we've pissed around

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:53 pm

very disappointing

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:55 pm

we got the win, but our performance wasn't great. lazy players or tired players?

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:55 pm

Just sloppy again....we don't want that shite running into our game.

Just play the best team from the start....

Garbage today.

No surprise....Burnley we were average. Wolves we were poor.

Today...again, average.

Taking risks Pep.....but we got away with it.

I'd much rather we had Sergio on the pitch and Sterling than gambling with another ball-playing, sideways passer like Bernardo. He doesn't create anything in the game.

Poor today. A wins a win....3 points, but in a game where we totally dominated.....we got lazy at the back and that's not good.

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:56 pm

maybe we need sanchez.....

by Guest Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:56 pm

3 points though, not the best, but onto the next game after the break

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:57 pm

2-2 Eng v Spain.

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:58 pm

Foden just scored!!!!!!!

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:58 pm

3-2!!!!!!!!

by Strange Blue Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:59 pm

I think they all had one eye on the Napoli game & were conserving energy. At least Aguero will be fresh for that one. At the end of the day 3 points is 3 points & I dont see anyone overturning our goal difference. On the plus side Sterling was on form & the best player in the 2nd half.

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 4:59 pm

Sanchez would have been perfect for today's game. Give Sergio a rest for Napoli, without having to compromise with a good player in Bernardo....but one who creates absolutely nothing during a game.

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:00 pm

Will Foden win the WC for England??????? bounce

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:01 pm

17 mins to go.....come on England!!!!

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:02 pm

On BBC now.

You're so crude Dawg....always lowering the tone!

Get watching and supporting our City boys against Spain you heathen!

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:10 pm

Sloppy at the back there

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:11 pm

But that’s bluey for you:lol:

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:11 pm

Was that Foden with the hoof? Tut tut

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:13 pm

4-2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Lataubodiere assist!!

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:13 pm

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:14 pm

Deserved for that dirty bastard rugby tackle

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:16 pm

5-2!!!!!!!!!Foden!!!

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:18 pm

This is absolutely brilliant!

City providing the WC winning Captain...and the WC player of the tournament!

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:18 pm

Foden

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:18 pm

All it needed was the pass

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:20 pm

And then Foden did the business

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:27 pm

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:31 pm

Incredible performance.

Now...if the FA are as good as they think they are......

We have U20, U18 and now U17 World and European champions.

No excuses....and thank you to Pep for allowing Super Phil to play in the Semi and Final....unlike the money-grabbing Sancho. Wink

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:38 pm

Foden player of the tournament

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 6:03 pm

EASILY

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 6:09 pm

He won the trophy for POtT

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 6:10 pm

Everyone will be banging on his agent’s door now. He can still leave us at the end of the season for peanuts. He has to get some decent game time. Or feel confident the promises will be kept. And I can see us offering him a hefty new contract

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 7:22 pm

Absolutely.....Pep told him to stay and play in this tournament. He has his best interest at heart.....and I'm sure Foden knows that. A big contract coming his way next week...and well deserved.

Our friend Ben Woodburn signed his full contract for LFC this week...made for life.

by **Topdawg** Sat Oct 28, 2017 7:38 pm

5 yr deal. Must be at least 20k pw. Now he’s got all the money he needs in life, he can just focus on being the best player he can be. Nice

by blueboy Sat Oct 28, 2017 7:50 pm

Yeah...it's pretty frightening. My lad who's his mate, worked 8 hours today for £50!! affraid
