@lekkie, a good example is Everton. They started well but along the way, began playing poorly. As a result they lost 3 consecutive games. If they didn't put in the effort today they'd have lost as well.

they did not start well because we r actually at the early stages of the EPL. 6matches in 38. after the fisrst 12 matches we can now conclusively determine which team has started well.

lekkie073:
sounds pretty good. but in d absence of d ok performance, I would take any performance with a win. any day anytime. d end justifies d means bro

Yeah sure. All we're saying is we can't have this repeat itself again if not all these small teams will fancy their chances against us. I prefer we play teams that are afraid to come out to those brimming with confidence. It's dangerous to have your opponents smell blood.

We should just do the simple things like keeping the ball and passing it around, frustrating our opponents. Is this really difficult to do or is this too much to ask for?

So you know, our performance even against Everyone was bad but the flurry of goals in the last ten minutes covered it. In this game there was nothing like that and performance worse. I hope it won't be worst next weekend.

eph12:

LOL! If to say u dey near me and you be person wey I senior na backhand you go collect with this talk

Assuming you were also drunk at that moment

Leyqute:


Forget I mentioned City. What I had in mind was any decent team.

What if twas Tottenham? I wonder what guys will be saying because if we play this poorly against them we sure won't get any points because we'll surely concede goals.

The only decent side we've faced this season was Madrid, and look at how that game went.

When we meet Tottenham you will see and understand that no two football games are the same. And as they say in local parlance "football no be mathematics"
I have absolute trust in this team and Jose.

This is funny

Leyqute:


If you play well and take your chances, you won't draw or lose many games.

If you play poorly and give the ball away cheaply, you won't win many games.

That, there, is the difference between Manchester City and Crystal Palace.

And I'm afraid we're slowly (emphasis on slowly) tending toward Crystal Palace's direction.

What is all this talk of drifting to Crystal Palace's direction? Do you even listen to the things you say. We are only Behind city by Four freaking goals. Should City fans have said they were drifting to Crystal palace after drawing Everton and Escaping with a last minute goal against Bournemouth? Do we just say these things because oh we have Mourinho who emphasizes on defensive football over Guardiola who wants to attack without sense? We were having a poor day with players misplacing passes and some unable to win 50/50's... Even Mourinho said in his post match interview that he saw from the game that the players weren't playing well and he had to secure the goal scored. What is all this Crystal palace talk again? Is it amnesia we have or have we forgotten were we are coming from? Nawa for una oo. We have kept more clean sheets than City and more than Crystal palace can keep in 10 life times and you compare us them on the basis of one away game. Maybe you should switch your allegiance to City. When they have suffered more defeats and draws away than we ever did last season then you'd know they are not as good as you think.

I don't know what their problem is but they were poor and they paid massively for it.

Omo this match must have been terrible from the lamentations i have read here.
There is almost no defensive move JM will make that will shock me.
We have not played any big team and we already fielding 6 defenders, LOL

All I'm saying is I hate this performance and I abhor the habit of losing possession cheaply and not threatening the opponent at all. It's an eyesore.

If you want us to play like that against Tottenham, good for you. I most certainly don't want us to play that poorly against top oppositions.

Seems you've forgotten the Arsenal game- when we needlessly defended and got beat.

Gbam!

The guy is something else. What was he up to now?

This is funny

Atleast we saw how defensively good we can be.

After we lock up, we troway the key.
Nothing is coming in, nothing is going out.

Jose subbed in 3 defenders Ooo My God.

On a more serious note, Jose showed his defensive masterclass. Even Man city wouldn't have broken down that defense.

Neymar1095:
Jose subbed in 3 defenders Ooo My God.

And Guardiola bought how many defenders? Mourinho averted disaster, Fraudiola is preparing for disaster because e go soon reach him turn.
So gerrout

tell us the name of the 3 defenders subbed in

1. Emphasis on slowly
2. Na so e dey pain-vex me
3. If we keep playing poorly we will surely drop points. Many points
4. We didn't have a poor day today alone. We've been having poor days. Today is the worst. That's the koko.
5. We haven't played any of the tough sides.
6. We started hot last season but didn't score goals. Now we're scoring goals but are growing cold. That's a red flag. A very red one.
7. The only thing about City I envy is their spirit and dedication. If we have that we will surely triumph.


We've been playing poorly but today's performance is the worst and it is very annoying. I'm happy with the win but these performances don't make you look forward to the next match.

Let me complain when I can complain. Is it when we play badly and lose, and those agberos are partying here that you want me to complain?

E don do sef. I won't talk about this again.

What matters to me is the three points. If we have to play ugly football to get the three points,I am okay with it. I prefer to play ugly football and get there points at an away ground than to play sexy,beautiful football and lose. The priority is the points on the log.
You would think we lost the game the way some of us are carrying on and grumbling.

I announced my homecoming when I joined few months ago I think.

Don't think u've chatted since I joined or maybe I don't look at names of people chatting.

Ok

Sometimes you feel like caressing someone

Neymar1095:

You still never get sense abi? So Herrera na defender?

Miki and Rashford needs to be talk too seriously, these shit they re serving us presently is not funny anymore. While we might all abuse Mou (me inclusive) I think there's nothing else he could have done, we are losing the midfield battle and he brought in Herrera and nothing change, there's no way he could bring in an attacker when our midfield is being sliced through.
We are definitely not going to serve this horrible display again, never again. The most annoying thing is that with how technically limited Lukaku is, he still performed better than Miki, Rashford and Mata combined. Wow.

We simply had no answer to lemina in that midfield.
Him and Romeu bullied the living daylight out of Mata and Mhkitaryan.
They couldn't do Jack.
Pogba in this game would have made a world of difference.
Jose had to react in the most realistic way.
Give them the midfield and keep them there.
In the end, it worked and that's what matters

We could borrow you guys sterling and sane. Rashford and Martial are shit.

Liverpool go collect one or both of lemina and Romeu real soon

When JM said it's going to be a difficult game, we think he's joking!

Up man u.
Good game. There is room for improvement.
Playing badly and winning. This is nice.
If we had won these type of games last season, we would not have been 6th place.
It can't go any worse than this
