Hated every single mili second of that second half. One of the worst experiences of my life. You can’t have hated the trippier free kick ?? it literally felt the same as the England semi goal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbydazzla Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) Watched it on holiday in a Spanish bar, mainly City fans and some Leeds stragglers. Both groups were positive about us and what Howe’s achieving with that squad. They were impressed by the quality of football we played. City fans said it’s rare a team goes after them the way we did, they were shocked by how up for it we were and there was plenty of panic when we scored the 3rd. Ended up getting mortal, gatecrashed the mini disco, tried to play basketball with some local yoots, got chased off a chihuahua, drew a knob in the dust on a car windscreen and am sweating like a bastard today. My kids are taking the piss out of me. Edited August 22, 2022 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 While it was lucky it went through Willock's legs, that's the beauty of being such a great creative player. You can't wait for the absolute risk-free perfect chance to play a through ball... you realise your mate is making a run and you back yourself to get the ball to him. Don't think there's many other teams in the world that can score goals like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That communication will improve the more they play. Noticed this. Wonder if the noise from the crowd was drowning out shouts? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However in sprinting your body is fine tuned to do one thing and that's run in a straight line for 10-20 seconds. That's it. Football involves so many other elements of constant movement, different physical stresses on the body and needs much longer term stamina. I can't remember ever seeing any footballer be Haaland's height and build but also have that acceleration and pace. Forwards his size usually have moderate pace at best and have to compensate by using their height aerially or through technical ability with the ball. While those with pace to burn are usually much smaller with a lower centre of gravity. I've never seen anybody with his combination of attributes in football. It's highly unusual.

Hovagod Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Absolutely no issues whatsoever with Wilson in the Guardian talking about this as the sportswashing derby, but- just out of interest- was he on top of City’s sportswashing before our takeover?

This game is not a missed chance for us to beat them, for them it was a missed chance for City to beat us. They will show all the goals but will then focus on the City misses and how good Haaland is.

alexf Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 That moment when Haaland burst through the middle of our 2 CB's gave me Ronaldo Barcelona 96-97 vibes when he scored that great goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Watched this in a seaside bar near my hometown. Guy behind us was a manc, presumably on holiday. After they took the lead he said in his stupid manc accent “this’ll be a rout now”. By the end of the game he was relieved to have gotten a point.

It could have been Man Utd fans in 2000 up on level seven yesterday, fuck the plucky neighbours narrative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Hanging once again. Had to have a few after the game given how mentally draining that was. Had a hoarse voice for a good hour after the game. I feel a lot better today than I did leaving the ground. Felt like 2 points dropped even though I'd have snapped your hand off for a point before the game. We were right up for it; Bruno, Wilson, ASM, Almiron. And SJP. What a fucking place it is at the minute. Can't fucking wait for Palace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
