What has happened to our leaky defence?

[Marvin]

Goals conceded domestically 2 in open play in 10 games. Is this a record for City? Must be close.

This period was preceded by Everton game.

Have we changed anything? A fluke? A period playing weaker teams?

Regardless I was surprised when I looked at it

City 1-1 Liverpool
Boro 0 - 2 City
City 0 - 0 Stoke
Sunderland 0 - 2 City
City 5 - 1 Huddersfield
Huddersfield 0 - 0 City
Bournemouth 0 - 2 City
City 2-1 Swans
West Ham 0 - City 4
Palace 0 - City 3

Without doing a Bravo bashing session I think Willy may be a factor.

Willy stood up

A combination of some poor attacking teams (Boro, Sunderland etc) a rejuvenated John Stones, better ball retention and Willy in nets.

Monaco was the acid test

Willy stood up

Oh come now...

Willy rose to the occasion would be much better surely ? :)

 

[Marvin]

Is it going to last, or have we got another 0-4 in us?

Arsenal, Chelsea and Saints away coming up will test us. 3 very strong teams at home. Arsenal will be looking for a big performance against City. They basically have to beat us or they are not getting past us. Gap to Arsenal is 7 points.

I was struggling as this is not off topic lol

Think Willy deserves a lot of credit and respect for this. He's stood up to the task and has been excellent.
