I hope the selection process of #CFC manager is being bone carefully. If we're to maintain playing as 11 individuals, then it doesn't matter. To lift our level onto one our squad allows will require a demanding, organizing and work rate rating person careing for the whole package.

Maresca looks to have problems with the #CFC owners also while his team underperforms. One example is Caicedo, who has to do far too much while he isn't assisted by team defending. That causes the bookings. The squad is good enough but it needs to be steered to perform as a team, not individuals.

It ends in a 2-2 draw. There are two big problems at the moment (1) #CFC squad lacks leaders and (2) Maresca tactics play into opposition hands. With this kind of form continuing, we're soon out of CL this season as next. At the same time we are soon looking for a producing manager.
December 30, 2025 at 9:37 PM
So far this season the maximum shots against us in a whole game is 17 (8 on target) and AFCB at HT have 14 (6) with 40% possession. This shows how dominant our opposition has been. #CFC shots at HT 8 (2).
December 30, 2025 at 8:38 PM
At the moment #CFC tactics seems to be go out there and aim your best. It turns mostly out as late arrivals or not closing games when being in charge. Set piece management is non-existing and commitment forward is at all cost leaving us vulnerable against counters. Is that proper tactics?
December 30, 2025 at 8:34 PM
So far this is a continuation from the previous bad games. AFCB take the lead from a setpiece. #CFC totally unaware again. Just 7 minutes gone at the goal time and we look worse than ever.
December 30, 2025 at 7:43 PM
1st half #CFC possession 71% shots 10 (3 on target)
AVFC 29% 0 (0) What exactly did Maresca do to change it to?:
2nd half 53% 4 (0) AVFC 47% 11 (8)
One of the biggest surrenders this season and where is the steel to close such games? This surely isn't what the owners want.
December 28, 2025 at 3:24 PM
After a good 1st half (wasteful though) #CFC surrendered totally assisted by (in my mind) wrong substitutions. We contained Villa with ease, but a cathastrophic 2nd half lost us the game. In my mind Maresca tinkered causing this and there was no reason to lose the game this evening.

#CFC
Shots NUFC - CFC 1st half 7 (5) - 4 (0) 2nd half 4 (0) 9 (4)
Roles reversed although NUFC shooting wayward other than the gifted goals. Passing accuracy was much lower than usually and we lost more duels than on average. NUFC had 5 shots on target, same as Bayern, LUFC and AFCB.
December 20, 2025 at 3:17 PM
#CFC now level in a much improved beginning of 2nd half.
2-1 James 49' a perfect freekick into left bottom corner
2-2 Pedro 66' fine individual battling of a long ball and a cool placing
What if we stopped giving gifts, at this rate. We'd win many more games.
December 20, 2025 at 2:07 PM
#CFC passing accuracy is only 78%, which is the result of (1) NUFC pressing and (2) sloppy passing. We don't work enough to give the ball holding player possibilities to pass. With more movement this can be improved, but at 0-2 down and bad unity it looks impossible to win it.
December 20, 2025 at 1:36 PM
If MCFC poaches then it may no be a bad thing. #CFC gets a good compensation and can look for someone who values defending more than Maresca does. The squad is capable to defend and attack better when set do so. It means the same amount of work our opponents do.
December 20, 2025 at 1:29 PM
What has #CFC got out of it so far? Three bookings, 2 for protesting Madley refereeing. In fact Madley should have at least seen the foul on Palmer, which resulted only in the Gusto booking. Surely one of the worst games so far and NUFC constantly offered chances to score. 0-2 at HT
December 20, 2025 at 1:21 PM
#CFC St. James' Park is a very strange stadium. If diagonally cut , then there is a combination of a big stadium and a mmedium size stadium. Good atmosphere always and usually a difficult place for us.

The WC ticket pricing is part of the deal to buy country associations into it through money. The most important part of it, fans, are the party to pay for it. This same functions under UEFA where players are facing continually more games without proper rest periods. Quality will suffer.
December 20, 2025 at 8:44 AM
I'm not fully advocating moving away to Earls Court, but restrictions may still mean #CFC have to. Recent movement means that the building areas are about consumed at EC, surely there is a hunt of profit on the way. At SB we'd need to buy more properties to build at home. Both ways difficult.
December 19, 2025 at 8:59 PM
#FIFA is ripping supporters off with the WC pricing. Originally the cheapest tickets were €3.110 but since the reaction a small number of €45 tickest have been introduced. My view of fair pricing is between 40 and 200 € as also travelling adds to supporter costs. Greedy #FIFA rip-off

FT CCFC 1 Turnbull (Ng) 75' 3 #CFC 3 Garnacho (Buenanotte) 57' Neto (Santos) 82' Garnacho (Pedro) 90+3'
We seal it in the end but restructuring at HT and later made sure of it. Our starting lineup wasn't doing well at all. Pedro and Neto did give us an advantage and Chalobah also.
December 16, 2025 at 10:01 PM
75' CCFC are level typically from a cross which we failed totally to defend. #CFC are always good to get robbed by bad defending. It is Gusto who is closed but a team failure altogether
December 16, 2025 at 9:39 PM
This competition is not a money-spinner compared to CL, but for #CFC it remains one of the two along side we could win, PL excluded. Well, Pedro is warming up. Thank you Maresca.
December 16, 2025 at 9:01 PM
HT CCFC 0 - 0 #CFC
Shots 6 (2) - 5 (1)
Careless defending came more into it late in the half and up front really no penetration. Maresca must take of Buenanotte and replace him with Neto or Pedro as he just runs into opponents. None of the players have been good.
December 16, 2025 at 8:52 PM
30' CCFC 0 0 #CFC
Just 1 shot on target and our 2nd string aren't so far getting much out of the game. We have dominated possession and half-bossed it. Just proper attacking moves are missing. Wingers isolated and Acheapong having problems at fB.
December 16, 2025 at 8:35 PM
FT #CFC2 EFC 0
21' 1 - 0 Palmer C.(Gusto M.) 45+1' 2 - 0 Gusto M. (Neto P.)
We win it in the end as our opponent can't use the opportunites they get. Both goals were excellent quick moves but we really made it hard. Just in the final stages we had full control.
December 13, 2025 at 4:59 PM
HT #CFC 2 (21' Palmer [Gusto], 45+1' Gusto [Neto])
After the 1st goal we took control for a quarter but never looked dominant. In a similar way in EFC control again a quick move down the right flank Neto crosses and Gusto in advanced position scores. Nothing yet decided as we defend poorly.
December 13, 2025 at 3:53 PM
Half way 1st half. Start static and predictable with EFC bossing clearly. Then 21st minute Gusto sends Palmer clear who coolly gives #CFC the lead with a near corner shot. We haven't otherwise been particularily good.
