Alabama 1,992 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Can someone please elaborate how 433 formation is the only way to play attacking football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But stopped for the rest of the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhead23 1,147 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Liked how Pep thought this through and through ... He just used pretty much the same tactics that Sarri used in their first meeting. Give the ball to City and wait for the gaps to appears, with City the cover up play and filling up the gaps is quick (obviously due to the quality) but we still found them and won the first one. Pep did the same with us yesterday, gave us the ball, once the gap appeared they pounced on it like crazy and because we are no longer defensively stable we suffered plus the fact that they were very clinical. Everyone said it was chaos, our heads were not in place but for me Pep identified our weakness and was ruthless in the execution. Bravo to Pep and his team!!!

Dylan_91 90 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I actually found this game less embarrassing than the game last season when we didn't even attempt to attack them and lost 1-0. As bad as yesterday was, at least it wasn't cowardly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Our league position is quite false, I actually now think we are mid table side. Starman60 and bigbluewillie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 These sorts hammerings will be come common if we do not sort this and get Kante back to where he should be. The back 4 is ultra shite, Jorginho offers nothing apart from a decent passer. They are exposed every game because of no protection, it stands out like a sore thumb. Barkley is fucking rubbish by the way, totally out of his depth and as inept as they come. The comments about him turning us into Arsenal are too far away in all honesty, there is a soft under belly at this club now, no spine or leaders.We are a one dimensional mess and very easy to play against. The bloke in charge hasn't got a clue what he's doing, he hasn't even got a plan B and his substitutions are rinse and repeat every fucking game. Fucking embarrassing. bigbluewillie, Starman60 and Johnnyeye 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,489 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Well, at least next season I hope Derby County and Lampard are in the Premier League. Would give something to root for on weekends like this when all the top 6 sides won and we got hammered Johnnyeye and Muzchap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I doubt very much I could add anything else to whats been said and am too sad/angry to read thru the thread as it will only make my mood darker! I will just add that being at the game was hard to take the BS given to us by the Mancs! It was embarrassing. I don't mind banter when it;s old news but I'm not good at having my nose rubbed in it! Read into that what you want! Anger does relieve stress at times tho! Laylabelle and Starman60 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you remember the game last season? While we're transitioning these sort of results are inevitable. At the end of the day we have 3 point out of 6 against city this season. I know that game was embarrassing but I would have definitely taken that at the start of the season. Can we all just try and get behind the manager and players for a couple of years? Might actually help rather than being negative all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Also, as bad as yesterday was, I want to fucking punch that twat Mike Dean. The way he pointed to the spot and fucked about with Aguero at the end was typical of this self centred arsehole. What a complete cock knocker.
