I dunno, I caught a bit of one off their recent wins. The place was like a morgue. That or my speaker is fubar.

If they get 10 shots on target, based on Collins's starts we'd concede 5. If I was their manager I would be urging them to shoot on site.

Doesn't help that we largely play a 2 in the middle, gaps everywhere against Plymouth. West Brom we looked compact enough in the middle with Shaef and Grimes working well together to close down space, very similar to Allen and Grimes against Sunderland. In both those games the oppo were fairly...

Its been close all season right? I'm sure it must have been nip and tuck!

Dorking were top for ages weren't they?

Yea, something Pep has always had outside of his first season at City. Fast direct forwards seem to becoming more in vogue which is good!

One full back creating an overload should be easily covered, even away from home! I do think MVE and JDS have been asked to take up more central positions in the build up, they pop up in CM more often in recent times it seems.

Probably a little bit, it doesn't help that Manchester City now don't have the best players in the league from back to front anymore, so many of them seemingly went over the hill in about the space of a month! PSR may prevent them from basically buying a new team over one window too which is nice!

The way to get around Plymouth was to create overloads. Some Saka/MVE interplay on the right would have helped create something, I'm not sure why we look to do this less as a rule now.

That's an absolute stinker. Looked miles on in real-time, I think Armstrong was still in an onside position when he received the ball!

Probably. He knows it's a foul I'm guessing but couldn't have seen the severity because it was so late. That is the type of thing VAR was bought in for.

To be fair to the ref the tackle was so late he didn't actually see just how bad it was, if he can see how high the guy's foot was he would have had to have sent him off.

The game turns on that decision, we couldn't contain them after he stays on.

It's against Liverpool so yes, foul. Pathetic

I think our collective arseholes would have caved in had it stood

I dunno, he's looked more like making the ball stick up top recently. He seems to win headers and whatnot more regularly.

Was Armstrong's goal offside? He looked on from where I was sat but 97p pints cloud a man's judgement...

Playing off Simms would work. Classic big lad little lad, well not little but rapid. Could probably do with more than 10 minutes also.

My Mrs works in Whitehall and she say's it's the same there, blood shit and piss all over the place.

I think sheaf must have still had a niggle for the first few games he and Grimes played together. They seem more of a "fit" now. Grimes has also been more dynamic the last few games. A good pairing.
