Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [17th - 22nd August 2018]

Could've been about 5-2 up but we also deserve to lose that.

Jorginho looks like a great buy for Chelsea, although I'm not sure if pushing Kante further forward is a good thing as they look very open at the back at times.

Starting line up was a bit weird but all 3 subs were good and the fact that we didn't wait until the 70th minute is a positive (also doesn't look like Unai is gonna have any undroppable faves like wenger). Bellerin really needs to fix up, not sure whats happened to him but he's been one of our worst players this year.

Another defeat, but there were some encouraging signs there. Mustafi is still looking like the weak link in our defence and Bellerin needs to step up though

That’s what I thought. Can’t say we didn’t have our chances though in the first half, could have buried them if more clinical.

Plenty of work needed still. . .

Another game where Emery hasn't shook hands with the manager at the end

Yeah I noticed that, seems a little poor on the sportsmanship front.

He did it in the dressing room afterwards, apparently.

City have a ridiculous squad. I saw that they had dropped Sterling, Walker, Sane, Mahrez, Otamendi and you look at their first XI for the game and you wouldn’t think they were missing anyone.

Lovely finish from Aguero.

Lovely finish from Aguero.

Yep, very clever.

 

[shipinabottle]

Hindsight of course, but was hen the defender came to cover, I don't get why the keeper didn't immediately retreat.

Great pass and lovely finish

 

[el_dazza]

2-0. Could be a rout this.

 

[Psycho Ned]

2-0 Jesus, this is gonna be a however many City want.

 

[robfosters]

2-0 Jesus, this is gonna be a however many City want.

Aguero and Jesus both to score was the special bet they advertised before kick off. Few happy punters.

 

[el_dazza]

3-0..

 

[robfosters]

Who the hell can stop this lot?

 

[Azza]

Rampant. Mendy's crossing have been on point today.



Why isn't Lossel in goal?

 

[Fubsy]

Nah, it's so poor from Huddersfield. Teams are just rolling over and showing their bellies to City.

 

[Kelt]

This is like David v Goliath...except Dave's getting a tonking.

 

[el_dazza]

Erm.. Huddersfield have scored.

 

[shipinabottle]

Very poor from Stones

Huddersfield have been awful in general. Keeper gifted them one goal and awful defending/poor keeping gave them another. City have an amazing team but this game isn't exactly a hard one for them.
