It's just confidence destroying stuff... 

Especially after the PSG mauling. 

 

I take it you're the team psychiatrist?

 

This team lost 5-2 to Arsenal in the league and lost last minute in a key game against the same opposition, and still stormed the league. 

 

You think a couple of heavy losses against a couple of the world elite after a flight from California will melt their resolve?

 

Thank god our boys our professionals and not the perennial crybaby moaners like on here lol

In my opinion it does. I know you hate anyone else's opinion. But I ain't changing it.

 

I hate stupid opinions, having an opinion doesn't make it right or free from critisism. Do explain how exactly playing a preseason friendly against a decent team proves we aren't ready for the champions league. Remember when we drew with a league one team last season was it... did that prove we weren't ready for the league we went on to win. Clearly it didn't. 

 

You're chucking out ill thought out shit and don't like people pointing and laughing.

If Gray stays on the pitch, we need to get him on the ball more. Sometimes there's so much space down that right hand side he's on but no one spotting the run.

He looks good, would like to see Musa, Mahrez, Gray behind Vardy against Hull. Put down a marker, they can barely put a defence together.

No way would we play without a midfield 5 against barca in a competitive game. it's a work out. Shame about the publicity that will follow it but Claudio and the boys need to have it in perspective. should get them wound up nicely for Sunday.

United will hammer us on Sunday if we show up like the last two performances. That was basically our first 11 out there first half and Barca B or not we have been embarrassed.

Hope we don't bother with this again if we get invited. I can't see any benefit it's brought us. Call me a dinosaur, or failing to 'get with it' or whatever but it's done nothing for me. Nothing but a morale drainer. Schedule is absurd.

On the plus side Gray and Drinkwater have been good.

hope mahrez decides to start playing second half.. he was quiet first half

 

 

 

Hope they play him on the wing. He's more suited to that then a no.10. Although having said that the fact we have just signed another winger to me is a bit ominous as to where Ranieri plans to use him....

Messi covering his mouth when he speaks really grinds my gears.

Jesus H Christ will people stop the fcuking meltdowning?!

 

2 of the most ruthless attackers in the world have ripped us apart - it's not like we're struggling against Rotherham. This is a preseason friendly designed to get our fitness levels up and for Claudio to tinker - it means fcuk all other than that.

 

As it happens apart from some defensive errors against 2 of the most dangerous players in the world (one currently sentenced to prison, the other managing to find game time between regular bans for being a disgusting human being), I actually think we've played quite well and come quite close to scoring against one of the best teams in the word.

 

everyone chill for fcks sake. 

Yeah played blinding 29% 3-0 down

We have done well, if we had been clinical as Barca..we would be drawing 3-3 or just behind 3-2.

 

That said Barca and PSG are going to be 2 of 4 top teams, we will ever play this coming season.

City have been quite good, but being outplayed by the Barca magic.In the PL you have more time,

against Barca any single player, can hold, distribute, and counter attack, no time sacrificed...

 

I for one will not see this game as a downer.

It took Man.city 4 seasons with top foreigners before they got use to this level...4 seasons !!!

We are, where we are, wecdont play against these type of teams everyweek.

Happier with the play than the score.

 

Great to be playing Barca instead of Rotherham.

I'd rather be playing Rotherham. This international champions cup is shite.
