    City have hit the post twice now. They're getting closer.

    Oh my, this might just be our day, how did that not go in off the post, I will never know

    Well, a very disciplined and determined performance so far.

    Lasagne the other way.

    Cornet on for Antonio who looks shattered.

    Well played lads, a very good first half.

    Must admit I'm worried about us getting a bit too physical and picking up yellows leading to chances or a red, but we've been very disciplined so far.

    Fair play for that half
    A committed performance all round ⚒️👍🏻COYI

    You sometimes get those games where a team looks really in the mood to defend…
  • PengemanPengeman
    A very dogged defensive performance so far. Can we maintain it? Only 20% of the ball but one shot on target. A point would be good and 3 would be even better.

    Gary Neville giving West Ham praise - who would have thought it? He must really hate Man City. ⚒

    Its the hope that kills you =)

    Quite impressed, strong defensive performance and although they have had a couple of decent efforts, especially that one that spun off the post, I really do not think they have created very much considering

    I doubt very much if we will hold out, there will likely be a moment of individual brilliance or a mistake, but at least it looks like Citeh are going to have to work for it which makes me very happy.

    A point would IMO be brilliant..COYI ⚒️

    Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

    The worry here is that all that Manchester City will have to do is come out for the second half looking like Crystal Palace on steroids.
  • LukerzLukerz
    After a half of good defending we let in a goal like that

    Let’s just hope the floodgates don’t open up now. A long 40 plus minutes to go.

    As we're often reminded, a game is 90 minutes long, not 45.

    Was always going to be a near impossible task to keep City out. Was really only a matter of time.

    It was poor by Downes to concede the free kick and get a yellow card, but the marking was dreadful.
  • chicagohammerchicagohammer
    Yes, for me that was to easy…is it just me but since the goal, Citeh look more relaxed and more dangerous than prior

    Poor by Paqueta there, he had to release Antonio.

    That's a penalty surely, he got Haaland before the ball. Lucky imo.

    Ogbonna on Stones wasn't clever either tbh.

    Coufal down injured. Never rains, does it.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Now Coufal looks like he's got a hamstring problem.

    I liked Kehers challenge but Oggies one was more than clumsy

    As with Zouma, that could have huge consequences for the rest of our season.

    buffy, Fortunately we are not playing at Anfield! 😉

    Don't get that sub. Ings is a fox in the box player and we've had one touch in their box this half.

    Cornet instead would have made more sense to me.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Ings on for Antonio, not unhappy about that tbh, can't afford another injury.
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Paqueta needs to do things quicker. He had Johnson in acres of space on the right and dallies on the ball again.
