WSL 20/21 | United v City | 12:30 - Sat 14 Nov

Zelem starting on thr bench two games running as captain. Lost her place?

Also see Smith hasn't made thr bench at all, I've not been following the line ups too closely this season but she's a Scotland International was a starter, has she been shunted down the order?

What is going on with this midfield. That’s like the 4th time there has been 5 or 6 city players vs 4. Ladd and Grojn just don’t seem to be able to match City physically at all.

Seriously, every single time we are outnumbered in midfield and end up losing the ball or try a long ball.
 
Getting destroyed a bit in midfield, one simple ball and they're in the final third. City should be further ahead.
 
That was coming. Shame to concede in added time, it's going to be tough to come back from this now. City lead 2-0
 
Looked offside in the build-up, but can't complain about being 2 down.
 
Been destroyed that half.
City getting so much space on the wings, I think we need to go a bit more direct in the second half.
 
I'm not sure where Casey will go with this. We need to toughen up the defence and midfield, but we need goals as well. Zelem in, but for who? Maybe go 5 at the back with Ladd moving into the defence, and Jess to come off? As things stand, no one's playing well enough to complain if we do bring them off.

Tobin Heath looking very frustrated with how we're playing and no wonder.
 
Wow, are we playing the mens City team? I never seend such tempo and physicality from a womens side. The pace is furious. City smelled blood after the first goal and got all the momentum. And the 2nd was really bad just before the break.

Delighted to watch this live, even though it was painful to see City dominate. And yes, it was clearly offside in the buildup to 0-2, very clear offside.
 
How did that linesman miss the offside when she's 20cm in front of his nose?

5 at the back is a must, pin City's wingbacks back, really press high.
 
Seems like we are way off in our positions, Batlle is all alone on the right side at times and Stokes especially can just cruise forward and start attack anyway she wants. Casey must find a way to get closer to them and stop them way earlier.

Pressure higher up the pitch and that happens, lovely stuff
 
Haven't really kicked on from that goal, still too passive in the press. Allowing City to dictate play again.
 
Lauren James is ridiculous. Last week against Arsenal at one point she got the ball and was basically toying with 4-5 Arsenal players.

already she’s binned a good few City players with just a body swerve.

Shes incredible.
