Sleepy1968 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 1 minute ago, Tomo said: With 3 players injured 1st half they have competed Yep. It's a pity it went that way. We were missing a CB from the starting line up I think, so to lose three starters in addition, and not be able to make any further changes in the second half has really done us. If we'd have taken the chance early in the second half before we got too knackered we might have hung in. Well done City anyway. I'm hoping to see a couple of these lads in the first team sometime. I don't see why Philips isn't worth a place on the bench in the run in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nogbad the Bad Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Assumed Man City would be far superior but they really weren't. Without the 3 injuries and the disruption they caused we may well have won it.

Possibly had the better chances and I would have loved to see us with that starting XI for an hour. Not just tiredness but being out of position really puts a stress on the lads.

Agreed, made the bench at West Brom away IIRC. If we are going to persist with the current formation then worth some minutes in one of the holding roles. Also, I believe he can play and has looked comfortable operating in defence for the u21s when required.

wayne allisons tongues Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Played really well, thought we were better side 1st half. When we got the 3rd injury Man City seemed to go up a level and had a few chances end of 1st half. Second half played well should have scored Bak/Yeboah between them should have. Philips unlucky with his effort but by then the fresh legs of Man City were kicking in. Last 20 mins only looked like one team would score. Third sub interesting debate was 8 mins added time, good 10 mins with 10 men or bring on a sub. 50/50 call. Why a break for Ramadan in stoppage time, nothing in laws about having one and if they played nearly whole half without a break why not the extra few mins. Just because it’s sunset does not mean they have to eat/drink straight away. Just stopped the flow of the game. Campbell Slowey, Philips and Hewlett were my stand outs. James thought was a bit disappointing defensively left too much space for there wide player, was great going forward and winning headers from goal kicks. The number 8 for Man City how he never got backed I do not know, commuted at least 4 cynical fouls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
