Manchester City 2-1 Leeds Utd - Post Match Debate.

[JoeDenver]

One wonders if Meslier were dropped a lot earlier we'd be safe by now

Well said! I hope we don’t see him again in these next three games.

[Baldbloke]

So Big Sam with an on-field huddle at full time. I remember when Jesse Marsch did that and was mocked relentlessly. Not so cringe when a English Manager does it eh?

Because he's telling them he's eaten and drank all the after game refreshments so they're not disappointed when they get in there

[Overman]

City on the ropes for most of that game. Some how they managed to survive, once again, luck not on our side.

I thought the same thing, Paul!

[The Subhuman]

Not sure there is a lot to take from the first half but does that second half give us a gilmmer of hope?

I think it does, but it depends on what Big Sam takes away from it... clearly Rodri has to start, Decision to make at RCB now.

[Jaydog]

Some good signs between the players. Whatever has gone on is hopefully buried now.

If it was Leeds timewasting at 2-1, you can guarantee it would have been 8 mins minimum. Wasn't a penalty either, as Foden dived, but the ref heavily favoured them throughout.

A much improved performance. Robles much better in goal and hopefully Strujk doesn't play again either. Only one goal in GD is massive too. Hopefully Citeh score loads at Everton.

We had a couple of changes to get in behind them, but grandpa Bamford was too slow. Rutter would've probably been a better option.

[Chilli D]

I know City had loads of chances but the annoying thing is the two goals were completely avoidable. The midfield was MIA

[Irish Ian]

I thought the same thing, Paul!

I don't recall mocking him, I do recall him running around Elland Rd celebrating after Citeh destroyed us last season, that deserved a good old fashioned mocking though

[Orange Box]

Very pleased to see that show of unity at the end there, some positivity on show too.

[whiteswan]

Struijk all over at the mo, a liability.

Not the same since that awful concussion....

[King Hennessy]

Sorry mate you are way off, force your opponent into traffic. Keep him outside the boxm Where your players are
You want him overlapping and turning the whole Leeds defence.?

That's your opinion. Force him to his weak foot. MAHREZ is clearly heavily left footed. He goes left he can easily pick out a man in the box for a pass or cross, or nailing a curler. Force him right and man mark in the box. If everyone on the squad is on the same page with that, they won't get turned over. Allowing a man to get to his favored foot is nonsense in my opinion. He easily picked out Gundogan on that first goal because of it.

His new contract you mean

Firpo ball watching for both

[SG90]

Keep Meslier, Struijk and Roca away from the pitch, and we have a chance

Was actually a very well timed tackle and an obvious error that VAR should be overturning

Well done Leeds



I'd have taken that scoreline all day

[JoeDenver]

Not the same since that awful concussion....

Tbf, it’s even before that. The new contract is the demarcation for me.

[Jaydog]

If that had happened 10 or 12 games ago I’d be feeling some confidence we’d be ok.

Add Paddy to the mix. Was awful today.
