another matchday, another disgusting european performance.

it has been shown numerous times that the way we play does not work in europe. yet it continues to happen. safeguarded in the league, the second we face a team that passes well and presses we turn to absolute shit. defending was horrendous AGAIN, like every bloody game so far. dzeko shows again why he's a supersub, and aguero was even more useless.

this team will never make it out of the group stages playing this stuff. it's frankly not good enough. not even close. keep waiting for it to click, looks miles and miles away from even getting close.

Good player but way past his peak sadly.

Only positives I can think of are that GNABRY got some more time and Coquelin played pretty beast and could be a good CDM in the future.

Milan lost again. It looks really bad for Italy right now. The Italian teams in the Europa league are also not doing well either. That sucks.

As for City doing bad in Europe, Mancini is their manager, nothing else needs to be said really.
Glad Dortmund won, they are proving to be one of the best teams in Europe. Think they will go far in the CL this season.


He supports Chelsea.

Also about the Premier league being overrated, I think it is a little bit overrated but it is still imo the best league in the world. La Liga is definitely not better than the Premier league. Not sure why people think otherwise.

it's easy to say to get rid of mancini. and reactionary. i don't agree with what's happening right now, i don't think it's good enough, but sacking him after just signing him to a 5 year deal solves absolutely nothing. so that's the easy thing to do, to overreact and call for him head.

the harder question is who replaces him? who out there is available and good enough to lead manchester city to champions league glory? apparently it's such an easy job to be in lets not forget.

You have to question Mancini's tactical nous, TBH. You see it in the league too where his go to plan when losing or drawing is to basically throw on all of his star attackers and play a 4-0-6.

The thing I've got with Aresnal atm is people, rightly so, saying if you stop Cazorla, you stop Arsenal. The problem with that however is the Arsenal players are for god knows why are just avoiding him. Sounds crazy, I know, but why oh why does everybody keep passing to Gervinho and Ramsey when Cazorla has space? They also ignored him in most of the attacks when we just crossed the ball in the box when a better player would looked up, see his options and cross to the man in space i.e. Santi Cazorla.

This team right now just doesn't make any fucking sense at all be it with players or formations. You think with Cazorla being our best player, you set up a team to play into his strengths, right? Anybody with common sense would but Wenger? Don't be silly, he needs to play the likes of Ramsey to justify what talent we have in our disposal.

Hope the supporters who spend a fortune to watch this crap make their voices heard at the AGM tomorrow night. Something needs to be done and if Norwich, somehow, are gonna get their first win against us on Saturday, that will the final nail in the coffin for Wenger and Co.

I never said you have to get rid of Mancini but the reason why you are doing bad in Europe is mainly because of him. He has a very poor record in europe.

so it's not the fault of the 11 underperforming players? at all? not even a teeny tiny bit?

I don't agree with him coming out and saying it in public, but Richards basically said they don't know what is going on tactics wise. That is worrying.
