Match Thread Home V Southend United - Tues 3rd Nov 7pm

Agreed.

Both lads definitely non league players, too.

 

Before the goal I thought Pritchard was largely anonymous.

 

Really, have a look at these stats
pretty impressive we've made them look poor.

 

Stuart is turning him into a star. Look at Bolton in the cup and tonight.

 

Hands up who has seen City throw away a three goal lead before?

Me Sir! Me Sir!


Surely not this time! Team is class apart from the dross we've been watching recently.

 

We can pretend they're not, but Southend on the ball are okay.

Off the ball, every player looks isolated and there's no defensive togetherness. All very much a case of 'that was your man', no interchangeability.

They are a bit worse than Oldham were when they played us at home last season.

Oldham, however, recovered. Not sure these will.

 

Watt is a very good signing for me and only twenty

 

Is it the boy ink something, who is on loan from Arsenal. That run he went on, if he'd had scored - and he nearly did - would have been goal of the month.

 

The lad they have on loan from Arsenal should have scored when the red sea opened and let him run into the box without a challenge.

 

I wonder if he's still pissed off about missing the bake off final. (Or whatever it was)

 

I'm pretty sure that's what I said?

 

Pritchard is one of those players you never notice till he pops up in vital areas to score or vitally defend in our own area, a player who should play with Watt in a regular pairing

 

Did Kiwomya just say he is looking for a much improved second half performance from City?

 

Demanding, Pep like really.

 

Now that was far more like it. I've been hyper critical lately, so I've got to give praise when it's due.

(But I'm also wary of jinxing it for the second half.)

 

I noticed he's got no legs when he was set free in their area. Much better with his head thankfully!

 

He did.

 

Definitely McCall's best bit of business this summer
