De Bruyne once again showing how important a world class no 10 is. Quick footed and quick thinking, so difficult to play against compared to players who need three touches before even deciding what to do with the ball.

[–]redent_it 5ポイント6ポイント  (5子コメント)

What's more critical is that other players are working hard to open up space for each other. The second goal showed that quite well; four players hauling ass and making the right runs. If it were us, Rooney would probably have had to stop at the halfway line to wait for a couple of players to join in the attack and people would start calling him all sorts of names.

[–]Melanjoly 7ポイント8ポイント  (4子コメント)

A lot of our squad simply aren't capable of playing that way due to a lack of mental or physical speed. Rooney/Mata/Fellaini just can't do it.

There was a time (about 2008) when we had a a young Rooney with Tevez and Ronaldo on either side of him, we used to look like scoring every time the other team had a corner !

The counter attack against Arsenal (champions league?) was another classic example of that.

We scored before most fans (and the entire Arsenal squad) even noticed it had been cleared from our box.

[–]Melanjoly 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

There are quite a lot of examples, we did it fairly regularly for a period of around (5?) years.

Around that time was the best we've ever been. The quickness wasn't about just running with the ball, we had a host of players who could consistently make intelligent split second decisions whilst doing so.

Yeah. Didn't Owen say something along the lines of Fergie's training regime basically being designed to simulate high tempo situations to instill good split second decision making into the team?

[–]redent_it 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

We mostly lack those sweet touches to start off the attack, combined with the willingness to run up together as a unit. Pogba can gallop like a motherfucker in space, Martial, Rashford, Mhiki, Lingard can all run and even Rooney can still sprint quite well....fuck even Gundogan scored now.

[–]zetabk 17ポイント18ポイント  (0子コメント)

City's counter attacking reminds me of United in the late fergie era

[–]DangoManUtdJose Mourinho 15ポイント16ポイント  (5子コメント)

Fuck Man City man! They make scoring look so easy.

[–]orangucanBailly -5ポイント-4ポイント  (4子コメント)

And they do not stop attacking. We would be waiting for the other site to score by now.

[–]MushroomBotHernández 1ポイント2ポイント  (3子コメント)

Have we even conceded after scoring this season?

[–]Inglenook86 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

Just Bournemouth.

[–]NzudememiMartial 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

And Leicester.

[–]Inglenook86 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

True. But I thought he meant from the start of the league season.

[–]jxclemMartial 13ポイント14ポイント  (3子コメント)

I can't bring myself to watch City. They are so fluid, dangerous and just amazing offensively. They are susceptible at the back, but I wish we looked this good going forward.

Their attack is effortless. The movement on and off the ball is marvelous and easy on the eyes. I hope, that after our squad comes together, we can play similar football.

Also, I wish we had gone in for KDB when he was available. He is absolutely world class and would've been fantastic to watch.

[–]EpicRumourTime 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'd suggest staying away from the forth goal they just scored then. Jesus, fantastic football

[–]gurungp 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah... hopefully we find some fluidity in the coming games!

[–]Hazsbgae 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ironically it was Mou who sold him...

[–]DangoManUtdJose Mourinho 14ポイント15ポイント  (2子コメント)

We need to keep winning to keep pace, if not EPL might end up looking like Bundesliga table cometh the end. That said, I also think City cannot keep this hard work going all season, at some point they will slow down

[–]redent_it 12ポイント13ポイント  (1子コメント)

There's no need for them to go full throttle all the time. Look at them, they are in complete control of the game.

[–]PlugpinSolskjaer 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Doesn't help that Bournemouth are still on the M40.

[–]omegaxLoLAnder Herrera 22ポイント23ポイント  (0子コメント)

It annoys me, but City are miles ahead of every single team in the PL offensively.

[–]ScotsmaniaHorny 10ポイント11ポイント  (2子コメント)

West Ham playing like relegation fodder all season so far.

[–]itsandercontrolJose Mourinho 23ポイント24ポイント  (0子コメント)

Good. Fuck em.

[–]IwanJones10Pogba 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

I still don't understand how we didn't win that 3-2 game

[–]KING_OF_SLOTHVan Nistelrooy 10ポイント11ポイント  (0子コメント)

We need a good 4-0/5-0 win soon

[–]imsowitty21 8ポイント9ポイント  (1子コメント)

Silva and Aguero aren't even playing.

[–]Zidane-TribalPogba 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

KDB is making the difference in their team, but damn offensively they are way better than everyone right now

[–]Arth_ 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

City is scaringly good. I mean, they still look vulnerable on defence, but who cares, since they keep on outscoring their opponents.

[–]MovementJRPogba 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah. If City don't drop off after Christmas they are winning this league. Miles ahead of us.

[–]ijd17Uncle Ant 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

We need an elite #10 like De Bruyne who can just run the show, I hope Mkhi can be that guy

[–]LupiTheGreatDe Gea 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

its amazing how fast city manage to adapt to the way Pep wants them to play.

[–]5thAvenueIsShitFosu-Mensah 5ポイント6ポイント  (2子コメント)

Our team really needs to step the fuck up, like seriously step up. We better smash Watford, we need to start looking like an actual team, our attack needs to start clicking. I hope the players realise this, they should look across the city and be ashamed of themselves if they don't start picking it up soon.

[–]EpicRumourTime 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

I don't think Mou even knows what his best team is yet. Neither do I, too many square pegs in round holes

[–]MovementJRPogba 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It doesn't help that some players aren't playing to their full ability at this point.

[–]wetslipper 12ポイント13ポイント  (0子コメント)

cant help but think that missing out on guardiola is going to haunt us

[–]aravindu43Pogba 11ポイント12ポイント  (0子コメント)

Can't resist myself from telling this fact - City is fucking amazing. De Bruyne looks commanding in midfield.

[–]targeryianJones 3ポイント4ポイント  (2子コメント)

Their midfield is the difference between us right now. Fernandinho sweeping up and Silva and De Bruyne are ridiculously creative.

[–]PlugpinSolskjaer 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

I just hope it's a confidence issue for us.

[–]targeryianJones 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Their midfield is bettter. We need that holding play and creative partner for Pogba for us to really challenge them.

[–]coolylamePogba 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

City is really looking scary

[–]imsowitty21 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think I'm going to be sick..they are really good

[–]BigbuckyballRonaldo 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

Arsenal are winning 0-1 not losing 1-0. There is a typo on your post OP. Also Alexis just had his penalty saved. Hull are down to ten men.

[–]runa198Lewis Hamilton[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Fixed. Thanks.

[–]danskzwag 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Comparing to other squads our teams lacks a lot of football intelligence

[–]EpicRumourTime 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

Whats worse about City is that they not only make scoring look easy but they also play brilliant football. As oppose to our long ball shit to Zlatan & Fellaini.

[–]sittingbull15 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

City keeps winning and we been losing two games in a row. If we draw or lose tomorrow and city keeps this form til December, it will become so depressing...

[–]DangoManUtdJose Mourinho 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

We lost one game in the league, although I can see what you mean. Lets hope they slow down soon...

[–]cm2683 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

De Bruyne is unbelievable. His play for the 3rd goal was brilliant.

[–]runa198Lewis Hamilton[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

WBA are beating West Ham 4 nil. LOLOLOL. Their deluded fans are coming back down to earth.

Man City is so much better, better players, better tactics, better everything. The truth hurts

[–]Dr_BatsRooney 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Add the right scores Arsenal are leading 1-0

[–]venkate-kateRooney 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

For all City's attacking prowess, their defense looks shaky, if you can hold the ball against their first press, goals are there against that team. Liverpool against city gonna be mad..

[–]runa198Lewis Hamilton[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

At least West Ham are shit?

[–]itsandercontrolJose Mourinho 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Arsenal is winning, not Hull.

[–]runa198Lewis Hamilton[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Come on Hull! They are back in the game thanks to a penalty goal.

[–]DangoManUtdJose Mourinho 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Come on HULL.. make me happy this weekend

[–]MovementJRPogba 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Still early in the season but we have to improve and quickly. Because City is looking ridiculously good. All of the lads have to start performing better.

[–]TAMM0DI 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

City 2-0 up already!

With players like De Bruyne, Sterling, Nolito, Silva behind the striker they are scary.

When Aguero comes back and slots into that striker position I think injuries or some major team meltdown are the only two obstacles stopping then winning the league. That and us of course...

[–]imsowitty21 -2ポイント-1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Bravo's ability with his feet is massively overrated. It's going to fuck them over multiple times this season.

[–]5thAvenueIsShitFosu-Mensah 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

It won't fuck them over because they'll just end up out scoring the fuck out of teams.

[–]Tipsy247 -2ポイント-1ポイント  (1子コメント)

We struggled against Hull city. Look how Arsenal thrashed them. What the hell are we doing?..
