Popular Post Corky Posted 7 May 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 7 May 2021 I've got no idea where that came from tonight. The baffling decision to take off Ndidi at 2-0 and leave us totally exposed in the middle then bring Mendy on much later was hilariously strange. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're a decent bloke and I usually like your posts but you're not a City fan, so it's little wonder you're not feeing what we are. No offence. It's also a bit cheeky of someone who isn't a city fan to dictate what certain fans should feel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many years ago was it since Holloway played Harry Worley in CM cos me and my mates ain’t talked about that one for a while. Harry Worley gets brought up in our conversations. We are ****ing boring mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At which point he made a change which actually made our shape and formation worse and we promptly shipped 2 more pathetic goals. If he was so set on keeping that appalling defense together, then why not just bring on Perez for Maddison, instead of taking off Ndidi and leaving the centre of the pitch wide open for Newcastle to get at our shaky disorganised back 3? Rodgers decisions tonight beggared belief, I can't understand what the hell he was thinking of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for being dramatic - we had a CB on the bench why didn’t he just do that instead when Evans got injured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the ****er out. He’s been stealing a living off the talent we have for years. It’s a shame that this board is full of a lot of fans who are happy with mediocre. We’ll see next season how mediocre Brendan is when our talent that is carrying us leave. 8 minutes ago, Unabomber said: That is a seriously embarrassing post. I hope you wake up with a very sore head and apologise for that complete nonsense. Also aren’t you the guy who was slagging off Mendy as if he shagged ya wife even when he was doing a great job for us? Apologies if that was some other moron. It’s fine to stick your head in the sand like an ostrich. We won’t make top 4 now because Brendan is a bottle job. When you call someone’s post embarrassing but can’t actually argue any of the points I make just shows you don’t disagree but it’s a defence mechanism of yours to hide your own disappointment of the bs you just watched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of them with the exception of West Ham are not up there. Chucked away far too many points this season. Elite manager 😂 If Puel was in charge for games like today there would be carnage This is the problem idiots who look at individual performances and individual games to make their judgement not the whole! I could easily cherry pick Man City away, Spurs away and Man Utd in the FA Cup as reason why he is an elite manager. There may be carnage if Puel was in charge for that because he never had us in the top 4, never took us to an FA Cup final... Look at the whole picture not bits that suit your agenda. We haven’t been out of the top 5 for two season, we have played in Europe and will play in an FA Cup final. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jattdogg Posted 7 May 2021 Share Posted 7 May 2021 (edited) He can rightly take some blame for the lack of changes when down tonight but we have still done well this season. Champions league is slipping away again but anything can happen. Miracles do happen. If we win the fa cup and dont make champs league i think most would still be happy abouy a successful season.

I think the reason folk get personal and start saying stuff like that is because it defies logic, it’s hard to be reasonable. How we can look so assured for 30 games in a season, pick up some really valuable points and look mentally solid....and then for the last 8 games look like we belong in the championship. Im scratching my head mate. I’m a bit deflated because I really thought it was going to be different this year but it’s the same story, pretty much word for word, yet again. Just disappointed. ...can't live we pressure!!! No pressure at start of season and we can play and strut our stuff because of the freedom. When it comes to real pressure we do not turn up, we just go to pieces and we are like a bunch of individuals. No leaders on the pitch, Tielemans not involved and hasn't the personality to galvanise the team, but is unreal when not under pressure. We should have changed it when we went a goal down, we were just not on it and waited too long to change it. Rodgers lacks the ruthlessness to take a player out of a game when not performing.

Blue Ed Posted 7 May 2021 Share Posted 7 May 2021 Very good manager...we wouldn't be in this position to start with without him. That said I was surprised we kept with the back three when Evans was injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shailen Posted 7 May 2021 Share Posted 7 May 2021 If you watched the game tonight, Pep wouldn't have won us the game. What can any manager do when the team played with no intensity, couldn't make a pass to a player within 3 yards and played in one gear all game.

You're a decent bloke and I usually like your posts but you're not a City fan, so it's little wonder you're not feeing what we are. No offence. As a city fan though I can remember a very painful history. We've lost a couple of games we should have won. Yes I'm angry. Everyone's passions are high. But some of the comments on here are clearly being made by people with very short memories. Every manager we've ever had has been slated on here, but, if we look past a few games where we've played badly, (because every team experiences plenty of those), how many have done as well as Rodgers has in the majority of games he's managed for us? And who would people realistically like him replaced with, that they think could do a better job? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I obviously won't take it as badly tonight as most of you but trust me I know what failure feels like as a football fan, this season of all seasons. Rodgers could have done things differently tonight, particularly in the second-half when a reaction was required but even if he made the correct moves when people like Soyuncu performed the way they did and made the basic mistakes they made I'm not sure what difference it would have made. The most disappointing thing for me tonight was the lack of urgency and desire, no matter the personnel or system that should never be an issue, especially given whats at stake and on that front the players need to have a long hard look at themselves.

Popular Post FantasticMrFox&Son Posted 7 May 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 7 May 2021 Can't believe some of the comments on here tonight. 1st goal, Cags to blame. 2nd goal, poor defending at a corner, Kasper not coming. 3rd goal, Kasper should have been in position to clear it, SWEEPER KEEPER, not rooted to his goal line when the long ball was played. Agreed that the manager made some strange calls, but the players own this sh*t show. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
