Match Day Huddersfield v Man City, Sunday 26th November 16:00

Match chat.

Obviously it's very unlikely we'll get anything here, but it's not football if you have no hope at all. City can't win EVERY game can they? They've gotta slip up sooner or later. Only scraped past Feyenoord midweek...

 

[Stevencc]

And they drew against Everton earlier in the season, have faith!

Remember, you've already got a taste for beating Manchester sides.

 

[silkyman]

This is fucking frustrating

 

[silkyman]

Fuck off.

 

[silkyman]

Doesn’t really change much. Not like they can defend any deeper to protect the lead.

 

[silkyman]

Ha

 

[Benji]

Huddersfouled.

 

[silkyman]

Last time City won a PL game after being behind at half time was apparently 1995.

 

[Abertawe]

^proof?

 

[DarkSithLord]

Harsh on Udders that.

 

[silkyman]

Well that was horrible.

 

[Stevencc]

Isn't life hard?

 

[Stevencc]

City aren't a one-man-team but it's no surprise to see them struggle (relatively) against a team they are expected to beat with ease when De Bruyne has an off day.

We might actually get something resembling a title race if he gets injured for a while. Or Fernandinho.

Hmm... I think even if one of them gets injured we're too far behind mate.

^proof?

They mentioned it on the comms at the end of the game. It’s a stat that’s been around a while. 22 years to be exact.

Did this not happen vs us last season?

 

[silkyman]

Dunno. Seen it mentioned so much today that someone must have done the homework.

 

[silkyman]

Crazy stat.

Speaking of crazy stats...

Second half successful passes:
Huddersfield - 37
Manchester City - 336

Still, good practice for the derby.

Well someone did the homework wrong cos as I say, it happened against us last season. We were 1-0 up at half time, you won 2-1. Stat was possibly about away games.

 

[silkyman]

Thinking about it, yes. I remember it being mentioned back then, but it was the first away game.

 

[Abertawe]

Thanks silky you've made me look a dick to my real life friends.

Terrible use of clappers from the Huddersfield fans, far more effective as missiles than fake atmosphere creators.

We know, ask James McClean

Point would've been awesome, but we're talking about the side that many are saying could be the best ever in the PL vs the one that a few thought would beat Derby's record low points tally. Love our team, everything a fan can ask for.

 

[silkyman]

Wow. Didn’t realise it was this game in 1995.

Remember it well.
