Post Match EFL wk11 Man City (A) 3-0 Nov 9th

It's all been said. We were shit and deserved nothing from the game, but at the same time both of City's goals in the first half were very fortunate and the officials robbed us of a legitimate goal, so on another day we may have managed to get back into it.

It's a performance that does nothing to instil confidence in Slot. We were tactically outclassed and the coaching staff seemingly had no idea that all our players are fucking knackered and can't press and run.
 
This is nothing to do with fatigue, there can be no excuses.

We are cowards - cowards led by a coward, we don't want it enough. That's what this is about.

Call into talk sport with your exciting "we don't want it enough take." It'll be really refreshing.

Be sure to say no heart, no desire, it's about passion, no leaders on the pitch etc. Etc.

Its November ffs..there is no way we should be showing signs fatigue this early in the season and we had 5 days rest which was an extra day over city .
Slots set up/tactics in the 1st half were the problem.. We seemed to be set up to contain them more than anything , like we were trying not concede a goal in the 1st half.. Yes haalands goal was a fluke and with a bit of luck vvd's goal might stand but after that was overturned we just shit the bed ..
We were better in the 2nd half but we couldnt be much worse and had to try go for them but also city having a 2 goal lead could let us have the ball and try hit us on the break..city were streets ahead of us even in that 2nd half. Apart from gakpoo's miss we really never looked like scoring..city won in 2nd gear..worst thing is I think we made city look better than they are ...
5 losses in 6 league games.

We're shite lad - pay no attention to the excuses your manager tells you, we deserved every bit of bad luck that went against us for our embarrassing approach to the game.

10 months of pure unadultered snotball, it can't be allowed to go on much longer and it won't.

That 1st half was embarrassing and it was tactical

do we need to examine slots famous less intense football where he can bring us less injuries across a season and rotate less without issue? that probably comes with a less rigorous preseason too.
 
"unlucky with the deflections"
"we didn't concede chance after chance after chance after chance after chance"
"I see no valid reason to change anything"
"Chiesa needs to stop boning my wife if he wants to play more"


Excuse excuse excuse and no accountability taken, shut the fuck up you bald headed fraud.
LMAO

Slutball because we always get Hoed out not Snotball
 
Why January? Why not now

Because I think we need to differentiate between this being just a really bad spell where everything has gone wrong after winning the title, and Slot having no fucking clue and fluking the league and subsequently losing the plot and the dressing room.

Him winning the league gives him that stay of execution and a chance to see if he can turn it around and determine whether last year was a fluke or not.

I'm leaning towards him being a dud, but I'm not absolutely certain yet.

What will it take for you to be certain?
 
Beyond all the football tactics shit and Slot not having a clue.

There mate died 4 months ago. It's worth keeping that in mind when we are getting fucked off with them all. It's easy enough to forget or dismiss. But that has to be playing a part in all this.
 
They didn’t play Madrid midweek.
The have a younger team.
A bigger squad of like for like players.
They had a home crowd driving them on.
It was their managers 1000 game.
We spent £400 mill, why didn't we buy a squad players good enough to be used? Why didn't Slot rotate?
SCDNW ey?
 
Their xg (minus the pen because that was a joke) was roughly the same as ours…our biggest xg chance by a mile was Salah ignoring his teammates again.
 
Pre kickoff i said citys game plan was to pack the middle to stop our midfield. I was hoping the plan would have been to find other ways to get the ball to wirtz, but apparently not. Apparently it's impossible to think of other ways to deal with a congested midfield

In the pre match thread I posted something off bluemoon that said that's what they did last week and the team sheet revealed they were doing it again today.

It's kinda bananas that we were all sitting on this top secret information that you could only dig up by looking at fan forums or going on twitter or actually watching Match of the Day last week, but Slot wasn't privy to it.

Time for momo to say xG is a load of my fucking hoop.

I never said he can do no wrong but I believe in nearly 16 months in charge it’s the first time he’s been beaten by 3 goals and the first time his team hasn’t scored in the league under him.

Away to city is always a tough game and they look hungry after a bad season last year.

Don’t forget City were awful last year while transitioning.

Slot deserves time to bed in the new players and have us firing again.

I still fancy us for a good crack at the CL.

Bed in new players? Is that really the excuse now?
If Ali was fit, we'd only have two new players on the pitch today.

Disagree. Look at our form in 2025 as a whole, people just wanna be blind and use that as an excuse
RIP Jota and Andre tho
