The shots are almost all from outside of the box, they are garbage. That's because we are defending, this is what defending is. Any other chance has been blocked, that's what defending is, the people who have been doing this have been Sanchez & Dier.

We all know about the 1vs1 that Traore had, it's well documented, just look at the number of 1v1's that Ederson has to deal with almost every week, yet City has one of the best defensive records in the league. The oppo is going to have shots it's what happens in a game of football, if they are from outside the box, or other low % positions then they are unlikely to go in. The fact that Lloris has ONLY had to make SIX saves across 3 PL games demonstrates this, shows that we are frustrating the oppo.

If this was us shooting we'll all be up in arms at how shit we've been unable to get behind the oppo or break them down having such a lack of threat!

Thank you. So we are better off than Woolwich, who won the FA cup 2 years ago, but worse off than ourselves 30 years ago, because then we won the FA cup?

Surely you see the flawed logic in that? Its all I have been trying to explain. I havent been saying we are as good as we can be, ENIC are the best etc etc and I havent compared us to neither Wigan nor Woolwich. They were merely used to point out the flawed logic in using an FA cup and a league cup title up to 30 years ago as examples to where are are today compared to where we were then.

Click disagree all you want, but you just agreed with me.

No I did not.
 
Really we are still paying the price for the £130m we invested in Ndombele, Lo Celso and Sessegnon. We took a huge gamble on those three to be our new Dembele, Eriksen and Rose but in our last match only two of them made the bench and neither of them entered the pitch.

I think the moves we have made are decent but to really compete at the top end we need those three to explode and deliver on the money we paid. We are not City, we can’t spend that kind of money on flops and keep going as if nothing happened.
 
I'll stop Googling i think. It will only lead to disappointment. We have fewer creative options than we had last season. Another season of Kane and Son working their arses off with no other sources of goals beckons. Eriksen still not replaced. We need another CM, too. And another winger. I'd give this window a good 8/10 if Adama and Neves/Aouer arrive but that appears not to be forthcoming. Emerson seems like an interesting signing - i have faith, there. Defence still needs lots of work though: one of Dier / Sanchez need to go and another one brought in.
As stands its a 4/10 window at best.
This could be judged as a very good window had we strengthen properly 3/4 or so windows ago. I like the youth we have brought in. But we need starters!

Exactly this. Sess can be Sons backup and GLC/Ndombele should be solving our creativity issues. Those three are really letting us down.

Quite. Despite all the attention on Ndombele, Lo Celso has quietly been a massive let down so far.
