You won two trophies and were one game away from winning the big one. That was without your striker. Of course other teams have strengthened but City's consistency is going to be so hard to beat. We will compete for the title as we have a good defence and will put the middle and lower table teams away. I just worry about not being clinical enough against the top teams. If we score first, we generally go on to give them a hiding. Too many times though, we have created loads of chances, not took any and then been sucker punched. 18 hours ago, rock the clock said: Still don't really see the lack of striker being such a huge issue for city.

Anyway I too think not having a striker WILL at some point catch up with City. I expect them to challenge in all comps but I think there will be moments when a number nine is needed. Phil Foden for the Messi false 9 role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfy Bean Posted September 4, 2021 Report Share Posted September 4, 2021 Hampden today with a bigger crowd than in a while. Hopefully we won’t try Robertson at right back again 🙈 Interested to see how Gilmour plays. I’m expecting he’ll see a lot of the ball.

squirrelarmy Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 If a striker doesn’t receive the ball how is he meant to score. The most exciting part of the game was watching the balloon near the halfway line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pink_triangle Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Wrexham got 8000 plus yesterday for a national league game. Also been announced as the first non league team to get in Fifa. You can't get a home football top and it's tough to get a ticket. The owners really know how to play the social media game. Just need to translate it to results on the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve lost five out of five so far so can see that being the match where it all clicks together for the ‘Wrexham Red Dragons’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
