Thank goodness we brought that elite medical team from Leicester.

 

Absolutely. Otherwise it may of been much worse for us this year.

Really? Easily our best defender. Puts his body on the line every game. Rarely gets outmuscled. He’s been immense for the majority of the games this season. Yeah he may have been at fault today, but that doesn’t make him shite. Top earner or not. 

Whilst I don’t disagree that he is our best defender, he really doesn’t have much competition currently for this accolade. 

I think he’ll get a new deal on drastically reduced terms. I bloody hope he doesn’t though. 

Our ******* final ball !!!!!!

Get one, we’ll get another.

Hope so……Max ain’t the answer unfortunately 

If Pearson isn’t keen on Bentley now, at least he knows he needs a new number one in the summer. I’m sure he’ll now be comfortably aware that O’Leary is not the answer. Certainly not now, probably not ever. 

Scott has to score there.

Jesus, how ******* open was he?

Not convinced with Cam in a back 3

Has done well in the majority of games. 

We’ve gone asleep. 

Catalogue of errors. O’Dowda, then Klose and onto some ball watching by Kalas. FFS.

I said even last year (when he appeared unable to hit a cow’s a*** with a banjo) that we should be playing him up front as he would clearly stretch teams. Not saying this to show what foresight I had (well I am a bit ), but this has happened and the fact that his composure is improving is icing on the cake. If he’s here next season he’ll get 20-25 goals I reckon.

The change recently has been staggering. It does appear to of clicked. Got to love a City fan though - some positivity that !

Would be disappointed if it was given against us. Would’ve been a soft pen for me.

We’ve only had four penalties since 2020 and they get the same number in one game.

To be honest it’s taken us circa 18 months to start spending decent time in the oppositions box. 

Naive from Pring. Encouraging performance though. We are improving. 

Massengo. Great feet. 

O’Leary. Push it wide FFS

I’m surprised the gas aren’t enquiring about him. He may suit them. 

Has done really well this year. Credit where it’s due.

Theres no conundrum for me. I’d be picking Bentley every game. 

Our good football has coincided with Semenyo’s return to the team and not Max’s inclusion. 

We should be playing our best keeper. 

Totally agree with this. Semenyo has helped us stretch the play whilst also giving the opposition defenders something to think about. Also, Scott and Massengo have started to settle and are in  form. Pring has now found his spot at LCB, whilst others have upped their levels slightly. 
 

Bring Bentley back. Otherwise we may aswell play Joe Williams in goal for his footballing ability. 

O’Leary. FFS. Doesn’t strike me as your typical nutty goalkeeper who’s gonna get himself hurt if necessary. 

Scott tiring? Time for Wiliiams cameo perhaps. 

Semenyo

O’Leary has zero presence in the 6 yard box. 

My word. Some lovely intricate and composed passing. We look an actual team.

Ridiculous how much Semenyo has improved since the start of the season

Was just thinking the same. Improvement is considerable. Looks a real threat.
