Match Thread EPL Man City (H) - 8 Feb 2026 16:30

[Farkmaster]

What sort of fucking buildup is this.

Gakpo and kerkez almost tackled each other.

 

[Markeh]

turns out guehi is a good defender

 

[SummerOnions]

Ekitike did a fucking Gakpo there

 

[dee]

Wirtz to Tekkers - becoming a trademark

 

[Barnie78]

Hugo! Three man was clean...

 

[Fabio]

It's absolutely all on Hugo today

 

[Farkmaster]

He's fine but there was nothing for ekitike there.

 

[Shadey]

Gakkers & ekitike swapping places at times.

 

[BishBashBosh]

Better last 5 mins as we have the majority of the ball / winning 50/50’s - we’re going to need two goals today for the three points on this evidence. City aplomb with options off the bench too.

 

[Squiggles]

Pretty lacklustre performance is far. Beyond getting the ball to Wirtz and Ekitike, I'm none the wiser what football team we are or want to be. It's getting a bit better, but the their keeper isn't getting tested at all.

Don't get the booing of Guehi at all. Weird.

 

[Farkmaster]

Much better now down the flanks.

Allison doing what he's been doing this year.

 

[SummerOnions]

I guess our data virgins are jerking off to some spreadsheets instead of actually watching this shower of shite.

They probably tell their wives that the expected orgasms was actually very high and it was a good performance

 

[Holle]

Konate wtf.

He jogging around in our box while Haaland can shoot easily. Thank god he's out of form.

 

[Farkmaster]

Every game goes like this for me. I know we are bad. I don't want to watch us, and then when I turn it on the hope takes over. Within minutes I'm back at the beginning.

Who the fuck watched this team for over half a season and said "yeah, that's more than good enough, let's see how they look if we force them to start playing players out of position."

 

[Markeh]

i don’t know if i overly focus on gakpo but he’s just really inefficient at progressing attacks, too many touches, too many backwards passes, his successful dribbles are quite often backwards in moments after he should’ve passed

 

[Modo]

I just started watching, wtf is this?!
Do we have eleven strangers on the pitch?

 

[dee]

Nico getting a yellow next foul

 

[localny]

Salah anonymous. Gakpo too, give someone else a chance boss

 

[dee]

Wirtz <> Tekkers are linking

 

[binomial]

Here's a better idea, Fuck all 3 off.

Maybe because he chose the oil giants and his £300k per week.

 

[Fabio]

Oh fuck off Salah there's no need to be offside there

 

[dee]

Salah is not getting the decisions. He’s defo involved

 

[Farkmaster]

Maybe he watched us play football.

 

[Fabio]

Maybe because he chose the oil giants and his £300k per week.

But we didn't go on for him in Jan. Can't expect him to patiently wait forever

 

[Barnie78]

Macca too...

 

[Fabio]

Salah is not getting the decisions. He’s defo involved

Involved doesn't mean playing well however

 

[binomial]

The look of a team that hasn't a clue like it knows what to do.

Can't wait till Arne fucks off.

 

[Holle]

Maybe because he chose the oil giants and his £300k per week.

Bah, humbug.

He'd play for us if we didn't act like dickheads last summer.

 

[BishBashBosh]

Balance looks all wrong for me, Ekitike seems to be the wide out ball with Gakpo drifting more centrally….Wirtz needs to be the player receiving the ball on the half way line looking to feed Ekitike, it’s the only partnership we have on the pitch with any magic.
