Match Thread Manchester City v Leicester

[Jeff]

They're dirty bastards. Every time we look like breaking they make a tactical foul. Should have had a more yellow cards. Silva could have been sent off.

We're frustrating them by playing it around in our half, looking for space to break into.


Listening to the local radio at half time and they say this is one of the most difficult home games they've had this season because of the way we're playing.

 

[Graz]

Doing a great job of keeping them out so far.

Our game plan is obviously to frustrate them and then we're hoping their nerves will kick in and that's when we can take them.

 

[camberwell fox]

Who?

It's been an excellent performance

Not you. Just think that was exceptionali.

Watching this at a bar and some of the Man City fans saying the same. Seem to have been doing it to other teams who play on a break as well.

 

[Brown Nose]

No team has kept a clean sheet for an hour at their place in the league this season.

Only three have got to half time keeping them out.

 

[glyn]

Not you. Just think that was exceptionali.

Maybe I’m one of the ones who came across as negative with my “sitting ducks” comment. I don’t think we’re not playing well, I just think Man City will score a couple at some stage given the chances they are threatening to create.

 

[glyn]

Sky just flashed up a stat that we were the number one ranked team in terms of just second half away results this season.

 

[glyn]

Kasper again with the “boot it out to the 22 yard line” manoeuvre.

 

[City Fan]

We can’t keep hold of the ball in this second half.

 

[popillius]

Only one ‘City’ playing tonight, according to Sky - especially that scouse twat

Yeah, that's getting on my ****ing nerves now as well.

 

[camberwell fox]

Conceding possession and ground too easily

 

[popillius]

I think we have been excellent so far if but for being a little too patchy with our passing in the second half so far. That's the right decision from Guardiola though; Foden should never have started this game over Sane.

 

[Graz]

Man City stepping it up massively now and Sane is on.

We need to stay strong and patient. We can keep frustrating them and wait for our moment.

David Silva should've had 3 yellow cards now. Frustrating.

 

[homer]

Well under the cosh this half - giving the ball away at will

Can’t keep going like this for much longer

 

[Graz]

Great tackle by Hamza!

You'd suspect not. But then the more they come, the more space Vardy is likely to find.

It only takes one correct pass...

But you're right, it looks like a matter of time until Man City score.

 

[Lako42]

Dirty bastards

 

[popillius]

Maguireinho at it again.

 

[Graz]

****ing hell, Maguire terrifying me there but he did so well.

Madders HAD to pass that to Albrighton!

 

[homer]

Oh Madders, look up FFS

 

[popillius]

Choudhury is doing fantastically well against Sterling.
