Very good guest

Flav is a ledge

How far can Anderson go? What a player we got there. Onwards and upwards COYR.

Got to give Nuno massive credit ,what he has done in year WOW,if we get a European place got to be manager of the year surely

@13:00 bang on. I had that argument with someone. Absolute madness

Great to see CGS back x

love this pod and love seeing citygroundshelf on! :D still buzzing!!!!!!

Alliot Enderson ??? Did anyone catch that ?

Elliot Anderson is going to be an England player, mark my words. He’s everything we wanted Gibbs white to be. Simple but very effective.

Elliot Anderson has been player of the season for me so far. I know Milenkovic is a mountain and now we have elite cb pairing… but Anderson is in the top percentiles for basically everything he does. He’s so versatile its a joke. If he adds goals to his game and continues like this hes an 80 mill player.

Good job guys, enjoyed it!!

Everyone has forgot we also signed Carmo....how is he getting on in Greece? Will he be next years closer if Morato does step in when/if Murillo is sold

The usual folk slamming Ryan Yates when we sit fifth and he's played nearly every game 😂 the lads having his best season for us. Great podcast but let it go

I think we’d be mad to let Williams go. He’s nowhere near his prime and is already starting on a semi regular basis. In two years time he could be one hell of a player, considering he’s already more than competitive. People talk about him like he’s a 50m flop, the lad cost less than 20m and is in his early twenties, that’s peanuts at this level. Not to mention that if our aim is to truly reach Europe in the next few seasons then we’ll need two players in every position. Williams can comfortably be one of two left backs and that’s without further improvement. It’s like people expect Roberto Carlos reborn for 18m.

Great to see the Midlands 2 biggest clubs doing well this season & pissing off the "Rich 6" cartel that have had too much time with having everything go their way over recent years & are mopping up all the trophy's every season apart from the odd exception which is very rare & the premier league has been far too predictable/boring, especially since the protection regulations were introduced ie- The farce rules FFP/PSR that have made it very hard for others to compete in a fair way & many clubs like ours that were mismanaged for years have been screwed big time cos of circumstances out of the control of us fans which sucks alot,but considering the restraints put on us we're doing great, good luck!!!..... up the fuck'in Villa!!!! 😁⚽✌️

We need to find a Bruno Guimarez from somewhere

If we can upgrade our midfield we will be a genuine top 6 side!!

I remember now 😂 maybe go with Jota for this one then...

Elanga was offside 9 times against Villa at home last season! I remember it well as sat on the half way line upper BC.

With 4 weeks to go till everyone has played everyone, I think the best way to assess where we are at is to see how hard our next 4 fixtures are compared to the 7 teams right around us: If you weight difficulty of fixtures simply by how many points the opponents have so far, then we have the 4th easiest final run of those 8 teams. We are up against teams that (so far) have 82 points. Newcastle have the easiest run (up against 67 points) and will be above us by NYE. 100%. But only Bournemouth (73) and Brighton (79) also have “easier” runs than us. Tottenham (94), Fulham (95), Villa (96) and especially Brentford (109) have more “difficult” runs. Partly because 2 of them have to play the high-flying force of Nottingham Forest. I’m sure there are better ways to weight the difficulty of fixtures. If anyone knows please LMK :) COYR!!

All the big boys played at their place now 7/15 points not too bad at all

Why do we have to wait til half time to make the tweaks?

MGW said in his interview that Nuno told them that He and Wood are supposed to close down that gap in midfield to make us more compact, which they didn’t do in the first half but did in the second.

Well said Lee, we lost to Man City & the same thing happened when we lost to Arsenal, didn't they beat Man Utd 2.0 last night & wipe the floor with them a bit.. We played okay last night ,,,Not that bad at all..COYR

One positive? Maybe this ushers in a “back 3” with Murillo serving as CDM behind MGW and EA.

If you want to be a competitive prem team you have to have a good midfield and we don’t!!

It’s one thing going for it but you have to keep the back door shut!!

As long as we try to play that second rate midfield of Yates & Dominguez against the top teams we will get battered!!

Every player has played their part, even Elanga, who played well at the beginning, whipping in those crosses for Woods.

Williams makes me nervous, he’s okay up front, but against better teams, he worries me. Aina MOM

ALL GAMES ARE WINNABLE!

Man City are still a dangerous team, but their issues are not solely down to the absence of Rodri, Pep has acknowledged they have problems but some are easier to fix than others. The last time Man City had this poor run was when Stuart Pearce was the Manager

I would rather have more games like that than all bells and whistles because it shows we have developed and can see games out. And the introduction of the CLOSER a.ka Morato shows Nuno is confident

Neco Williams was celebrating BEFORE Woody took his shot, Someone has posted that Neco was interviewed in hospitality and said he has NEVER seen The Woodsman miss a pen in training so he was so confident

Dominguez will probably be expected to cover every blade of grass at the Etihad in 3 days' time, so giving him a rest seems sensible especially when you have the likes of Anderson to bring back in.

Dominguez had KINESIOLOGY TAPE on his back when he came on so probably could not do the full 90 plus him and yates both on 4 yellow cards

It’s called rotation

Town fan here, but wanted to say great insight and analysis! All the best best for Sat 💙⚽🚜⚽💙🚜⚽😉👍

Adam, you kill me every time you say ‘take the mantelpiece’ instead of ‘take the mantle’. Taking the mantle means to take on the authority or ownership of something and originates from someone wearing a mantle (sleeveless cloak) that signified their authority. A mantelpiece is the surround of a fireplace, so whenever you say that such and such a person or team has ‘taken the mantelpiece’, you’re saying that they’ve taken the surround of a fireplace away. 😂

Ipswich fan in peace. We're a bit of a mixed bag, ultimately, but generally we're improving week-on-week. We're increasingly comfortable in a low block too, and good on the break - much like yourselves, I think? I can foresee a competitive draw.

And just 2 years ago they were playing Forest Green with a lot of the same players,, the fact they competitive is crazy, good luck all from Liverpool

I’m an Ipswich fan, it should be a good game, don’t get me wrong, it’s going to be a very hard game for us but we are expecting Jacob Greaves (our main centre half) back aswell as Kalvin Phillips who has had some awesome games for us before his minor injury.

Bring back coops

If Elanga is the most frustrating Forest player you've seen, you ain't been watching forest long!

I’ve coached several players who broke their collarbone and that looked exactly the same!!
