City Vs Utd
City's flaws exposed again
Utd look so dangerous when we get he ball and go forward against arguably the best team in the world.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "Yes we lost but I congratulate my team: my players were fantastic, we are a fantastic team
This is Pep Guardiola's worst points return after the first 16 matches of a top-flight season in his managerial career (32 pts).
Pep needs to learn from SAF – to rebuld a squd and keeo them focused – there are arguably 6/7 players in our current squad who wont be there next year?

Rhys Walker The transfer window needs discussing for me. Personally, I feel as if there are persistent weaknesses with our current starting 11. Fair enough we’ve been done over by injuries this season, but we’re meant to have a good amount depth which I think we’ve been lacking in a few areas. Do we need to buy? If not then what needs to change
James Bunkell Is Angelino good enough at this level? Would switching Walker to center back alongside Ferna be a better option than Stones and mean Cancelo (who looks quality every game I’ve seen) gets more games.
Derek Trowell Am I the only one who’s annoyed with the reaction of some of our “supporters” who, when we drop points, seem to think the world is falling and claim the team/Pep is “broken”?
And a question for the older Blues, have there always been a fair share of complainers? Or is this a bi-product of our recent success?
Cheers.
Reetesh Giri As pep said there will no one coming this January , so do you think we can do well with what we've got at the back now?
Yeah , laporte's return will be really great but still will the things remain as it is or will it change?
And how about Cancelo playing out of position ( left back) ?
Keith Alexander If we don’t play Garcia and Foden they will be looking to exit the club, Garcia has been excellent every time he’s played.
Moira Fenton Who do you think will go in January - and in the summer. Now work out how many we're going to need to replace externally and who would you like to see coming in :)
Graham Stafford I think as league can now not be won its time to get youngsters on that pitch. Whatever happens then doesn't matter. They will learn and only make team stronger for experience. If not doing that shut the academy as makes it a pointless thing to have. Unless of course city want to spend millions just so eventually they end up at another top club where then become successful.
Andrew Mc Is pep overly relying and therefor exhausting and contributing to injury of the first team whilst simultaneously stagnating the fringe and youth players making them less confident and rustier when they do come on?
Every other top premier league team has recently shown that you must rotate and blood fringe and youth players.
Adam Potts Do u think we should concentrate on the champions league now we have no chance of winning the league and also academy players should play more than just pre-season, against the easy teams like in the efl
Thomas Knight Then leagues as good as gone ... do we want Leicester to beat us (next home game) as they are at home to L’pool on Boxing Day and if they win both games they get closer to stopping them win the league ... interesting thought!!!!
Q'wayne Heath How would you grade rodri performance from season started ?
Do we need a centre back ?
Can we push for second place when key players return ?
Who has been the stand out player in the team this season ?
Do you think we need a rebuild ?
--
Jørgen Jensen Should we sign another CB in January? If so, who?
Joy Dutta Could we buy Shelvey and Soyuncu to build a wall to our defence?
Could we buy Erling Haaland and Bale to bring in pace to the game?
Why our set pieces like corners so wasteful?
Aren’t both silva’s underperforming and need replacement?
Nafis Yunus Khan Can we do a Real Madrid and end up winning the champions league by being shit in the league??
Isaac Skidmore Is it time too possibly considering moving Sergio on and selling Jesus too bring in the likes of Kane
John Drinkwater Play Foden and give Garcia some games with Fernandinho and Rodri playing as holding midfielders.
Owen Fish Walker needs to go centre back cancelo right back Fernandinho back in midfield if needed with rodri. Drop D Silva looks tired, play foden. Then sign massively in the summer to reinvest in the team. Looks like a few players will be leaving us this summer.
Dave Shepherd Hi last week after Burnley , without mentioning other defence players I asked your views on why Otamendi had played so well. Could it have been because of who he was paired with it worked well. Now to cut to it , Otomendi out Stones in , terrible. ? Isn’t it time Stones who appears to have lost skill and confidence should be rested for a while, he signals all his moves and makes me nervous on the ball.Great show btw
John Lunty Lunt Foden and Garcia need to start. Can’t be any worse. Looked more than good enough and composed when they’ve played. And if foden is “ the best player he’s ever seen “ then play the lad 🤷🏻♂️
Not enough energy in midfield without ferna. For as good as rodri is “ only his first season “ he’s just not ferna yet.
Definatly need a centre back in January and a left back. 3 left backs and non of them are good enough. ( I know zinchenko has done well but he’s not a full back )
David Christie How can we stop racist abuse from happening?
Matias Zolotarev Should Pep play youngsters more now since we are out of the title race, but can still fight for top 4? Or should we still play our top team and focus on finishing as high as possible?
Are domestic cups our main priority now, since I can't see us winning UCL with this team? Can you?
How would you comment on Pep's views about City not being able to compete with Europe's elite right now? Is he right or wrong? Why?
