2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

[GwladysBlue]

What does this fella actually do for his enormous wage?

 

[Mathieubleucoyb]

If I were Farhad I would definitely smack Brands for waisting 35 million on my money

Winds up nobs like you. Money well spent.

 

[Bluestar]

Sorry, but that is an utterly cowardly way to approach a game and we got all we deserved with those two late goals.

I'd rather have a go and get beat 6-0 than set up like that.

SHAMEFUL.

I never want to get beat 6 0.
You have a totally absurd handle on reality. We don’t have the squad to dominate a team like city.
We could have been pulverised, but instead we were in with a chance to the 86th minute.

 

[Quadvod]

Was the only set of tactics we could play against them with and hope we nicked something

 

[Carloblues]

Just needed to make more from the set peices we had,.don't mind when when we set up like this against arguably the world's best side, it's when we do it in the other home games against crabs like Burnley

 

[Dixie1sixty]

I can’t agree with this, but I can see your point.
another manager does that at home in a cup quarter final and he’d get slated on here by everyone.

No they really wouldn't.

And even if a few did, it doesn't validate any criticism in the slightest.

 

[LocalNative]

We have about the 8th or 9th best squad in the league against a team that fielded a bench of Mahrez, Aguero, De Bruyne, Cencelo, Rodri etc.

I think we done alright but didn't really stand any chance of winning. We had a couple of half chances and against City you need to take them.

Mate what do you expect it’s Citeh and their players on the bench are better than our starters. We have Iwobi to bring on.

 

[Nymzee]

Martinez would have won us that game.

Well, might have won the passes around the back stat.

 

[Smodger]

Sorry, but that is an utterly cowardly way to approach a game and we got all we deserved with those two late goals.

I'd rather have a go and get beat 6-0 than set up like that.

SHAMEFUL.

Spot on mate same tactics as the Utd game.

 

[Toff33Blues99]

Painfully negative from Carlo. Bit hard for the players to show belief that they can win a game when the manager has rolled over to get his tummy tickled with the selection/tactics

 

[Jim Hopper]

Time to log off.

 

[BlueToff]

Can't really complain about today in terms of set up etc. We snatch a goal and it could be different (though feel City's quality would always have told).

We just have no depth, due to injuires and crap recruitment.

He does need to start working on us actually being able to attack and keep hold of the ball though. Can't rely on James to come back and sort it.

 

[DaChunk]

Gomes has to go to give Carlo another option. I still find it incredible how Gomes manages to look like a 45 year old man out there...
