The Footie Thread

[Lord Tyrion]

Have you been at the pudding wine again?

Maybe . It's been a long day of nothing

 

[Billysboots]

Maybe those who said City are a one man team were right all along. But that man isn’t Haaland. It’s Rodri.

They are a totally different side without him.

 

[Swango1980]

This is the Man City I remember from the 90's

 

[pendodave]

Cracking goal.
On the one hand, it's quite amusing.
On the other hand, why did it have to be Spurs

Is Georgi Kinkladze playing?

If the ground is half empty after 80 minutes I’ll be agreeing with you.

Pep will do what he does best - spend money on getting another one in during Jan

Might be too late by then.

Surely it has to be sold out in the first place

Rossler up front. Steve Lomas running the midfield

And Shaun Goater coming off the bench to save the day.

Walker has been made to look non league today by Kulusevski- normally his pace helps him out but looks like he is running in quick sand

Edit - done again this time by Werner

 

[Billysboots]

I guess the Sky Sports Super 6 won’t be paying out the million quid this week, then.

 

[Junior]

Congratulations Liverpool.

City miss Rhodri , but jeez, Haaland missed chances again.

 

[Norrin Radd]

Tashy Tashy, wake up it's not a nightmare it's really happening.

For some players the end comes really quickly. I wonder if this is one of those landmark days where the player just suddenly sees the end of his career a whole lot closer than it was yesterday?

Maybe a one off but there are faster players out there than Kulesevski and Werner who, on the basis of this performance, Walker simply would not see, let alone keep up with.

It's weird as he does suddenly seem to being outpaced by a fair few recently. He needs his pace as his positional awareness is poor at times. Maybe he's had a covid jab!

I felt this result was on the cards - but maybe just one goal in it and we'd get at least one. Spurs for crying out loud

Love the gloating - shows how successful we've become

It’s the sort of thing we saw with the likes of Fabinho , Henderson , Firmino etc - you could tell that they hit the wall and the game was just by passing them

I remember when a new breed of players came through on the PGAT that weren't scared of Tiger. Similar thing now happening with City?

 

[Morfeen75]

I did not realise Manchester City were a 1 man team

I do now after watching that game
