No doubt it contributes to sanitising games a fair bit. I hate it me. Could forgive it if they got everything spot on but they don’t, and therefore I don’t see a point. If we are going to utilise technology, bring in semi automated offsides only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) Vlahovic gets pushed over too easily. Considering his size, not that great physically. Edited April 6 by KaKa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 2 hours ago, Jewel said: You are talking about results and title races. I'm talking about the actual football being played on the pitch. I'm sick of this insipid, possession for possessions sake style of football so many teams are adopting now. Its all very regimented with little room for flair or individuality. Nobody has their own identity now. That said, I'm probably just being an old man shouting at the clouds. That's me that is. Don't steal my thunder.

On the Grid Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Neville was right. That shit was pathetic. There has to be a point where it stops working that way...enter Mr Eddie Howe...anyone who thinks we should get rid of him, despite winning a cup, even if we lose on Monday needs their head checked and spread the cheeks with no lube ...IMHO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I'm not sure that Pep's heart is really still in it. I wouldn't be surprised if he left at the end of the season. I also wonder whether Phil Foden would be better off elsewhere. He was one of the best players of his age group in the world, and perhaps the best, but his game doesn't seem to have developed in the way that it ought, over the last 2 years. City's style is quite regimented, and I think he needs more freedom. The post-match discussion was spoilt by Roy Keane and his usual rants about making more effort. Izzy and Micah were doing their best to raise the tone, but they were fighting a losing battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Pep went to OT to draw. He started all the controllers and no wingers. He doesn’t have faith in this team. He doesn’t think us/Chelsea/Villa will keep going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Thought Neville was spot on with his comments. It’s the first time in a while when I watched a match and it was actually a bit jarring how tentative the whole thing was, especially for a derby. All very strange. I guess this is a natural consequence of a broader shift from expressive individualistic players to a team unit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a derby, but not of great importance in the grand scheme of things for us. Can't explain why City were so bad though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
