Premier League Gameweek 1

first week and i'm already in the pits. it's over

City's in game line up is absolutely mental

2-3-4-1... Cancelo and Walker are barely wide, which is seemingly left to Graelish and Foden.

Why?! 2-3-5 is Guardiola's standart attacking formation since his Barca days...nothing new about the style and formation, its the execution that matters

Arsenal and us (under eth) play similar structure as well.

 

[Robbie Boy]

Kelvin Philips eh....

 

[Teja]

Ake is actually pretty good on the ball. Somehow have the mental image that he's about as good as Tyrone Mings.

 

[Deery]

Don’t see City losing the league this season they are just so strong all over and in reserve.

Meouch.

Alvarez acting on behalf of cat lovers everywhere.

Is Man of the Match not allowed anymore? Seems it has to be 'player' now.

It's allowed, it's just "woman of the match" sounds shit so they've made it uniform.

I think I did as much towards that win sat on my arse at home as Jack Grealish did.

I thought the same but City fans seem to be happy with his performance.

If he starts the next game then it means Pep is happy, that's all that matters.

Not getting all the praise for Haaland’s performance at all. Looks clumsy out there. Watching pundits analyse his incredible run that led to the penalty. Seemed a straight forward 10 yard sprint followed by a clumsy challenge from a keeper to me. Personally I think City look a lot more predictable with him in the team, and technically he’s not at the level of his team mates.

He’ll score goals and City will blitz the PL, that’s what a brilliant manager and a couple of billion in players will do for you, but they don’t look a better team with him in it. No doubt it’ll improve with time.

did you see his run for his second? great ball but only because he timed his run brilliantly and read that it was coming. and there was still work to do when he got the ball. made the finish look simple. not sure who you were watching but it clearly wasn't Halaand (maybe you were watching an old video of his dad...)

 

[mitchmouse]

Haaland is so good

I honestly think he'd have won our game for us - would certainly have scored the two good chances we missed

 

[chicha14]

We really missed out on Palhinha, he would walk into our midfield and he cost absolutely nothing!
