Manchester City 1-0 Newcastle United (19/08/23)


Recommended Posts

They are showing why they are the best team in the world.

 

They are so good defensively, so organised, so much quality, so well drilled.

 

It's really a fine science and impossible to play against at times.

 

They are a level above every other team in world football let alone the premier league.

When we receive it out wide and a runner overlaps we take an extra touch to assess options and suddenly any options are gone and City are back in numbers. It's really impressive how they do it.

 

Yeah, have to be more direct and play with more urgency.

 

It's a fine balance though because give the ball away carelessly in those instances and you're toast on the counter.

 

We've been no disgrace though. Think we'll take more risks this half as the game goes on.

City are clearly best team in world. Just so fucking hard. Hoping a direct Barnes and Wilson for last 30 mins can have some success. 

I don't even think they've been that good. Most of that today is reputation and we're sitting off them. When we have it we're too static and close in midfield. Some fucker needs to break their backline with a run. Willock would be perfect.

 

I'd get Wilson on to hold it up and get Isak on the wing.
