    After he went off the pitch, he was desperate to get back on and when he saw he was being subbed, his head went down, which suggests he felt he was able to carry on.

    Sometimes people need protecting from themselves!

    Shows how much spirit Adams has instilled into the squad!

    Captaining city in the PL promotion team was the pinnacle of his career, overshadowing anything he did at Rangers in that tinpot league. As a manager he struck me as someone who wouldn’t stand any player to earn more or to be more popular than him and therefore was reluctant to bring in well known names on decent money.
    That’s the primary reason he failed once the PP squad he inherited was gone.

    Agreed first half he dropped a few thankfully it didn’t cost us, felt more composed second half and made a few good catches from crosses as well.

    I was going to mention that save myself but know better than to bother giving him praise on here, fantastic save and the score would have been 3-2 Mansfield without him simple as.

    His kicking feels more consistent this season as well with his orders to kick it far and straight rather than out to the wingers or not knowing to play it short or long, amazing what simplifying tactics can do for players at this level.

    It was excellent, I reckon he’s about 5/6 games behind the rest in terms of fitness if we include those missed pre season.
    He’s certainly a unit!

    Mmm, we never explored the potential for his silky midfield skills. I wonder why?

    Loudly booing players taking the knee at Exeter, hassling our keeper even though we're on a very good winning streak

    Cant think of anything stupider than giving our own players grief unbelievable opposition are fair targets but not City players come on

    Dummies

    I have no idea what this means but if you catch someone on the knee with your studs, which is what FCD did, then you are always running the risk of a straight red. Not sure what you’re disagreeing with

    It was a 50-50 ball and the ref deemed the resultant collision accidental. It’s a non story. Even their players didn’t make a fuss. So why are WE saying it could potentially be a red. It’s pretty easy to understand .
    ANY tackle in football is a risk, it’s a contact sport.
