smr Posted 10 February 2018 Share Posted 10 February 2018 Great goal. Much better by us after the first 20 minutes. Lovely move befor3 the corner just before vardys goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinterdream Posted 10 February 2018 Share Posted 10 February 2018 I think we need to play the long ball and press them in their half, they're too good at pressing the ball for us to try our passing game. I think they started to play those tactics 10 mins at the end of that half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You serious? They will score another goal or two in second half. If we want to draw, we need to match them at the other end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get him in for <£20m then it's a no brainer really. Totally agree with you. Much happier with him then Morgan in defence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxed Posted 10 February 2018 Share Posted 10 February 2018 Is it any wonder their fans have lost their enthusiasm? Their season has already been told. It's like knowing the ending to a who-done-it half way through the book. It's dull and anticlimactic. There's rarely any drama with Man City. Just predicable excellence.

StriderHiryu Posted 10 February 2018 Share Posted 10 February 2018 You have to be happy with that after conceding from their first attack! I expect us to lose, but I am relatively encouraged by what I am seeing. Puel wasn't stubborn and realised that 3-5-1-1 was not working and we look much better (if a bit more open) going back to a four. I like that we are trying to play some football and not *just* hoofing it all the time, although we have been a bit guilty of doing that. Don't get me wrong we are sometimes the architects of our own downfall as a result, but I feel like if you want to improve as a team then you need to commit to playing a more passing style even through bad times where it gets you into trouble. The biggest difference is that our players usually take two touches on the ball to move it, whereas Man City only take one. As a result we don't transition as smoothly or as threatening as they do. That said we've got into some good areas and better final ball from Albrighton / Chilwell and Diabate and Vardy would be through again, and his finish was pure class. The guy is an absolute legend and has balls of steel! I feel like Silva and James need to be a bit better on the ball too. Silva has been a bit hit and miss for me, sometimes he has been brilliant, but sometimes he gives it away a bit too easily. The good is very good, but the bad gets us into trouble! Finally their atmosphere is even worse than last season! I can't believe this is a team that is smashing the league and could possibly win the Quadruple. The Deaf-ihad indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vacamion Posted 10 February 2018 Share Posted 10 February 2018 Drago, Harry, Kasper, Jamie Vardy, Ndidi, Silva and Diabate all did well that half. Whilst I still expect a defeat, the game is alive with possibilities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
