Title: The Champions v Fulham
Post by: gavin on October 05, 2024, 13:46:34
CITY XI: Ederson, Lewis, Akanji, Dias (C), Gvardiol, Kovacic, Gundogan, Bernardo, Foden, Grealish, Haaland

Subs: Ortega Moreno, Carson, Walker, Stones, Doku, Savinho, Nunes, McAtee

Personally, I'd like to see at least one quick winger.

We are extremely poor at the back

We need more drive. We need Savinho and or Doku.

Fulham actually provided some opposition. We should have been more creative and clinical. Jack wasn't good. I much prefer us with pace. But then even Doku held the ball up a couple of times. What a goal though so I will let him off. Walker has definitely lost a yard or two. Erling should have shot instead of passing to Bernard before their second goal. I don't reckon he will make the same mistake again. He looked severely pissed off.

A draw would have been a fair result

Well done Fulham for giving it a right go

I'm pleasedvwe won, but in my view we should have lost. Fulham had the more clear cut chances and should have took them. Another lack-luster performance after a midweek game.

Looked dodgy at the back again.  Missing Rodri big time but I'm sure Pep will sort it out.  The big positive is that we a team full of players that can score. 
Great game from Fulham who deserved a draw at least.  Onwards and upwards.

Glad to see the international break as I think Pep needs to regroup his team  as we are sloppy at the back

We have always been a bit dodgy at the back against fast breaks. But Pep will sort it out as far as is needed. There are not many as quick as Traore anyway.
