Coffee_Johnny Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Just watched the prematch press conference. He is so good with the media. As others have said, measured, reflective and really open. How many other managers would talk about the love they have for a player in such an open honest and natural way? Great man. Great manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Doesn't help Joelinton and then Longstaff when he came on were both really careless in possession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s going to happen with Joelinton and Longstaff. The worst thing is that they were beaten to the ball a lot. That’s meant to be their strength. I thought Longstaff was ok.

Kid Icarus Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 If I know Eddie Howe, and I think you'll all agree that I do, he won’t accept that performance and will be looking for a reaction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Isak was barely involved. That's the kind of game where you're expecting him to drop into some kind of false 9 role a lot if the ball over the top isn't on to help us get a better foothold in the match.

But Sevilla caused City a lot of problems mid week. We caused them a lot of problems away last season too. Losing is fine. But if it was a boxing match we maybe won 1 round at the very end at best. Dominated start to finish. Last time it was a far more even game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 There’s this pass between defence and midfield that is constantly on for smart opposition and good players. If we are to become a top side. We need to deal with it better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) They played their first match at home under the lights. That not have anything additional? If we’re at home it’s a different match, ala last season. If it’s away from home like last season we were deep into the season - so hard to compare this versus last. It’s not comparable.
