lexicon Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 The difference you see between the likes of the prem and say, the championship, is that good PL players know when the best option is to commit a foul and take a card rather than allow a dangerous attack. Man City turned this into an art form and it's important to emulate the best teams in the country, even if it's how they shithouse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podster Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) Not dirty at all, I shower on the first day of every month, and on my birthday of course, and I'm sure our players do too. Edited November 23, 2022 by Podster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 there is intelligent dirty, and unintelligent dirty. recently we have been unintelligent dirty. there are teams much more dirty than us who dont pick up half as many yellow cards, we need a bit more of that, we cant keep picking up yellow cards like confetti, we need to be more intelligent about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a pertinent point....we have to learn the stealthy way, and be more cute with the shithousery. we pick up yellows for smiling at the ref. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man City get the foul in quickly and early if their own attack breaks down. It prevents counter attacks and you're far less likely to pick up a yellow for a niggling foul on the edge of the opposition's box than you are anywhere else on the pitch. We need to adopt this Edited November 25, 2022 by picicata 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are a bit clumsy, that can attract yellows.....more clumsy than dirty, imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
