Manchester City vs. Crystal Palace match thread

My memory from this game will be Johnson on a 3 on 3 break and he overhits the pass (10m) with dubble the force. It was in principle a toe over.

 

[Teddy Eagle]

At least they had comedy value.

So did Laurel and Hardy and they were better players.

 

[PatrickA]

I hope we don't have to field a front 3 of Larsen, Johnson and Pino too often.
There's no physical strength or power there and every duel is lost.
It makes it so difficult to build moves and means that we are frequently under pressure as we can't retain meaningful possession in forward areas.

Kamada getting booked when there was "some" contact is an odd one...

a demo of professional break-falls from the country that invented Judo.

 

[ASCPFC]

Is it just me or has Wharton been, not just poor since he came on tonight but poor the last few games?

He was good in one of them. Average in the rest. His midfield partner is constantly changing could be a part in it. He hasn't been poor - just not good.

 

[Dogburger]

I’m STILL thinking of something positive to say 🙈

Its the first game in history that has been played without any tackles

 

[Teddy Eagle]

Strong and Kamada don't really belong in the same sentence.

Unless "dislike" is there too.

 

[syd snot]

Sack the manager!

 

[Nicholas91]

Some decent chances have opened up for us tonight but we’ve been absolutely awful.

It’s times like this I really hate nothing more than the nonsense that comes from the manager/players afterwards.

I would rather just hear something constituting an acknowledgment of the no-show, if not an apology to fans, especially those who travelled.

Dougie played a blinder there.

I'm watching Euronews.

We are watching Eurotrash.

A positive will be if it’s the last time we see this dreadful kit 🤮

Bit of a knockabout in the park with some mates.

I stopped listening to Glasner months ago.

That was James Finlayson.

It's a relegation front line. That's the big problem, without Sarr we are f***ed.

I have thought of something positive….the game is now over 😇

 

[ASCPFC]

Great fun anyway.

 

[Hannes]

Well done, lads. For ten or fifteen minutes there, I thought we might have a chance of scoring a goal or even picking up a point. That was far, far more than I’d expected before the game – or perhaps it was just a sign of my naivety. Make sure nobody gets hurt getting on or off the bus...
