Match Threads Man City vs Spurs - Match Thread

[markiespurs]

Pep is a great coach. Their wide play is phenomenal. And that's all down to coaching.

I'll reserve judgement on just how great a coach Pep is until he does it at a team that isn't the financial powerhouse of the league.

Poch got us a point. I've heard everything now

You do yourself a disservice. Read some of the drivel you posted in the Villa match thread. You got it beat hands down

 

[philll]

What the fuck are you talking about mate?

If anything I'm the opposite of the handwringing doom anti-support merchants on here.

Excuse me if I don't like supposed SPurs fans saying we deserved to lose. It's fucking City away - not Huddersfield at home. We got a fucking result - like we did in the Champions League last year. PLAYING THE SAME FUCKING WAY.

Fucking gold fish memories around here.

COYS!

Sorry it wasn't meant in as confrontational a way as it might've sounded. I'm over the moon that we grabbed a point but to say we "deserved" anything from that game from how we played is stretching it a bit. We were lucky, look at the xG and whatever - 99 times out of 100 they would've battered us with our 2 respective performances.

Comparing City’s & Liverpool’s performances today, City played the better football and were against tougher opponents than Liverpool.

I think this City side will thump Liverpool when they meet each other.

City defence is shittier though. Liverfool has VVD at least, hate to admit.

I know that they are an outstanding team but we have played so poorly. No urgency or aggression. Really insipid and disappointing performance.

The squad is clearly not settled yet, but we had a point and threw it away with yet more awful defending from corners.

Really poor today.

Well, erm, er, I look like a bit of a tit!

I turned it off in disgust when the goal went in. It wasn't until about 20 minutes later that my gooners supporting mrs came in and told me that we got a draw!

Great point, but very poor performance.

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

Those stats are shocking. 52 touches in our pen, 5 in theirs

 

[fortworthspur]

I didn't see this as I got in late. Got lucky with that one as it could have gone the other way.

Anyway, a point is a fucking great result.

vid wont play in the states but if that was Lamela it was the right call. if they start giving pens from VAR for that there will be 3 or 4 a game. happens all the time.

 

[carpediem991]

Pretty sure it's been more times than that.

should meam like 80%

 

[Col_M]

It shows the quality of chances each team had during the game. People don't like it because it can easily invalidate their opinions.

I prefer the explanation that I’m a big shagger.

Clearly we’re more clinical is all

 

[StylusX]

Totally underserved but an amazing point. I can see city winning all their home games this season.

 

[dondo]

Yay! We all support a “bunch of fucking losers”!!!

What an inspiring chant that will be at the new stadium. Top stuff

Heat of the moment ?.
Points stands imo as the goal was disallowed on a technicality.
Just going to go back and check all your posts to see if I can point out all your bullshit heat of the moment posts ?

 

[JCRD]

Neville needs to understand the reason the Pamela incident was not a penalty was because Toby collided with Lamela which in turn felled him and what's his face from shitty

But was close and hands all over him so doesn't help

[Spurus]

The amount of City fans saying it's corrupt and they've been robbed.

From the club that's literally bought the title over the last few years ?

Did we deserve a point, probably not but VAR gave a correct decision, I'm sure we'll have some goals chalked off too, come the end of the season.

They're just unlucky that its happened twice against us in less than 6 months, ahh well ??

Yeah they now suffer from PTSD thanks to us & VAR, it will be in the back of their mind the next time we go to the Etihad.

 

[Gareth88]

That was exactly my thought when i saw that before the corner kick. I was like WTF.

I also saw that and I saw Sanchez staring at him before the corner comes in and then goes with him and Laporte to the ball

 

[fortworthspur]

all but one .

 

[Ionman34]

Ah that explains why i don’t understand it. I was shagging at half time and only pausing now from more shagging.

You found the puncture kit then?

 

[bozzaSPUR]

No matter how great Citeh were and how slow-starting or incomplete we were in starting XI, fact was the first half from us was atrocious if we are building from our past seasons and if we are going to challenge the title this season. Beats me how could anyone defend that seriously.

Always games like this that there will be ridiculous hindsighters appearing after the game.

What? Not a clue what you’re on about. Yes obviously we are all delighted with the point but it’s the way it was achieved. In other words with more than our share of good luck. We rarely threatened and as even a top four team we should be giving as good as we take. Never mind we are after all in the first season of our next 5 year project!

Bit worried by Poch's interview. Obviously a lot going on behind the scenes with players wanting to leave. Sounds like a bit of a mess.
