It's fun getting to watch this city team when they have actual space to play with rather than having to watch them slowly break down a low block every week

How on earth do you keep your defensive shape when playing against a side with about half a dozen False-9s?

Wolves we’re doing fine until the ref intervened, even with 10 men.

Speaking of low blocks, we have your lot Sunday.

I don't think it's a complacency issue. Eventually the quality of your squad catches up to you when teams are more prepared to deal with your unique style
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably that as well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Think it is a few things. These teams tend to lose the momentum after they get safe, then never get it back. Think the novelty wears off for the fans a bit, especially at home, so they decline. Teams aren't surprised by them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Many don't buy well and think players like Rhian Brewster will be good enough to keep them up.

It’s doable. Chelsea did it in the CL Final and Palace a few weeks ago. You just need players with the discipline and ability to suffer 90 mins without trying to be too clever.

More likely going to see it in the champions league. Most PL teams are not patient enough as Ms don’t possess the pact skillful attacker needed to exploit our high line.

There was a handball before the moutinho handball that wolves got away with.

But even then even without the penalty I felt we would beat wolves.

Palace is a team that totally boxed us out and scored 2 goals aswell

We've tactically evolved from the low block days of Jose and Nuno I'll have you know

Now firmly a low-medium block side

Leeds have just regressed to the mean. Like Sheffield United, they were never going to be able to keep their level of performance up with so many championship players.

Imagine having KDB and Foden return to a team that had won 6 straight wins
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No real sense of achievement though, is there? Sure, Foden’s come through the youth, but everyone else in that team is just spend spend spend.

Salah and Mane won't have to practice their diving for this one. I'm sure our defence will do enough work for them by themselves.

Got away with? You mean the one that hit Kilman at the top by the shoulder and was nothing like a penalty in any world whatsoever.

Didn't KDB cost roughly the same as you paid for Naby Keita though?

Proper JA comeback that. Absolutely irrelevant to the point.

I actually think Chelsea will have a strong second half and Nick it. How you are not 7 points behind is a mystery

Just an observation. Which bit do you disagree with?
