2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

[diggerdestroyer]

So because a player is average they arnt required to work hard?

Look at the talent in that City team and look how hard they work. If DeBruyne, Sterling and Silva can work their backsides off, what make our lot think they can stroll around?

Its not good enough

I would agree. I think we dont work hard. Since martinez second season. Liverpool will out work us this weekend. I expect that from everton in recent years.

Arsenal are right behind us, and Spurs, whilst both have been in crisis but we’re lucky to have Carlo on £11m.

Yes yes. Bielsa in mate. We know.

 

[gazzaa2]

They knew they were in a game first half City. That's something to take from the game.

 

[GwladysBlue]

I'm not wishing to explain or dismiss the stat, there's many stats you could use to paint us in a poor light and we have to do better. But, mate, hopeless? Really? Give your head a wobble.

What’s he done that other managers, supposedly lesser managers, aren’t doing?

Ancelotti = Moyes being vindicated I guess. Personally I've no qualms with this approach but a lot of fans did. The next few months will be interesting on here.

This moving sigurdsson into CM needs to stop - he’s not mobile enough to play there nor is he good enough with his passing to overlook said deficiency.

Obvious to everyone apart from the management team apparently. Hopefully Allan's return will end it.

 

[blue to the bone]

Yes yes. Bielsa in mate. We know.

Ya . Spurs are payin jose buttons.
Imagine been just ahead of them. Shame of it

Its madness really playing him at all.

Fun sitting in to defend and then getting beat anyway

Midtable it is and probably out the cup

Another pointless season

Not sure it’s gonna to much for confidence heading into the derby at Anfield. Created nothing against Fulham and lost 0-2, had a good 15 min spell against City but still lost 1-3. Southampton at home after that, another team who will come here and do what Fulham did (style of play - as they did last year). It doesn’t look great.

 

[edge]

Footballs crap, results are crap fed up watching us.
Cant leave the team alone, baffling line ups and substitutions.
Its something like 4 clean sheets from a team who sit back?
Will have to see how carlo does with his own players.
Only hope I can take from the current run.

 

[Milkman]

I'm still amazed by how poor we are in possession. Definitely one of the worst teams in the league with the ball.

 

[gwladysnight]

29% possession at home. It's getting embarrassing now.

 

[Mrk]

What’s he done that other managers, supposedly lesser managers, aren’t doing?

Again mate, not here to suggest he's the best thing that's ever happened to us. I'm here to gently mock your absurd suggestion that he's been hopeless.

It took City a fair few years to get to that level and that was with a championship winning side. It'll take anothet season before we are anywhere near that level, at least a season.

We're going in the right direction with a few wrong turns here and there.
