Awful

Wed Dec 04, 2013 10:12 pm

sorry, but sugar coat it as much as you like with the... a point away from home/clean sheet bollocks, but that was dire.

I don't honestly remember a City team ever playing a worse style of football than what we do now. I swear I'd be more entertained watching Wales.

No bugger can keep hold of the ball.
They can't pass.
Constantly losing possession.
No width unless KTC does something... Where the f**k is Noone? At least he had a bloody go.
Just defend deep and counter attack (always down the middle).
Whittingham is a complete luxury. His dead balls are abysmal. Never beats the first man and is struggling to even strike the ball properly. Kimbo or Gunnar for me.

Don't think I saw more than 4 consecutive touches. Clearly 1 up front isn't working. You would have thought Cornelius surely would have been ideal against a physical team like Stoke. Only saw one solitary good point. Thought Declan played well. Didn't look out of place and his late effort was great. Taylor no doubt will have him sadly warming his arse on the bench again though.

Watched Palarse yesterday. They looked alright. No doubt that Tony will whip them into shape.
MM Post Match interview... let me guess. I was proud of my team today and the way the battled... :sleepy2:

:wave: Malky. When's this Turk coming?

You only saw one good point?? come on, our two centre halves were excellent.

nice. I'll Sir you in a minute.

If you're going to be an arse, then at least express your point of view.
I currently think the style of football we are playing at the moment is complete and utter defensive shit.
Against Man Utd we looked threatening. We had a go.
Rather than simply say "that was shit", I tried to explain my reasoning behind it.

There you go... the floor is yours.

Great point against the 2nd best home defence in the league, Stoke is not an easy place to go to and take all 3pts

Yes thats all fine and dandy, but we were poor. Forget who we played and where we played...we were poor. Noone stood out today as particularly good, they all stood out as particularly poor...except Marshall of course. Not being neg, just giving a realistic opinion on the game.

Ok then. We clearly can keep hold of the ball, and we can also pass it. Secondly, Whittingham is not a luxury. If we'd won then you'd be saying no such thing. 'His dead balls are abysmal'? Of course they are :lol:

'Taylor no doubt will have him sadly warming his arse on the bench again though'. Why 'sadly'? Taylor is patently a better player (he is much older and much more experienced, of course), though John has played well when he has played.

Agreed, thought Whitts was dire,would have brought None on to add some creativity,far from entertaining good point though :ayatollah:

I didn't say we weren't poor, but a point is a point away from home, and why forget who and where we played Stoke's home record is very good
