That was well below what we are capable off. Midfield passing is awful and our players don't know we have a right winger.

Officials are shocking and if not corrupt they need their eyes testing.

Do we think we can't win the league, we are just strolling about.
 
Maybe the cup games have been TOO kind. Seems to have removed all the edge from our team. Wolves was the same. They get a red card early on and we don’t push for maximum goal difference. We’re just going through the motions.
 
I’m KDBs biggest fan as I’m sure most of us are but he looks like he’s sulking and in a strop, if so I didn’t think he was like that
 
The only positive is we almost never have two bad halves in the single game, so I am expecting much better second half and more goals to come.
 
Eleven individuals. Defence is arguably a unit but the midfield is not, nor are the strikers. Has all the hallmarks of a red card draw unless the tempo and rhythm change.
 
Don't believe we can play any worse than that, yet were 1 up and should have had a pen. Pep ripping them a new one in the dressing room as we speak i would imagine

He’s off the pace but doesn’t mean he’s sulking. The team isn’t fluid as normal. Get Gundogan off for starters
 
Disappointing 1st half, complacency again. Reminds me of Leicester's game.
Bring on Bernardo for Gundogan.
Jesus for Aguero
And Kyle... I don't know .. he doesn't deserve to be in the first team.
Only 1 shot on target!!! Wow!!
 
De Bruyne looks so far from his prime its worrying
Walker has defended well enough (rash tackle aside), but needs to stop predictably passing to Sterling every single time he gets the ball
Laporte and Otamendi need to clean up there bloody passing.. sloppy and slow
Fernandinho iv never seen pass so badly, wins the ball then gives it a way

This isnt a great game for a lot of the team, hopefully Pep rips their heads off in the dresser

I don't know if you're joking or not, but I genuinely think there's something in this. Pep made a point yesterday of mentioning how many games we have coming up, and this news that we can't just play the kids against Burton because of our (stupid) involvement in the Checkatrade Trophy might have made him reconsider how we approach this game. We're drifting through this one and with Marriner in the mood he is, we could be sleepwalking into more dropped points.
 
Every time we do start to build anything, the usual happens. We get taken out without any retribution.
I know we need to up our game, but Mariner is doing his usual job. Touch them and down they go and hey ho a foul.
He has an art of making our games very bitty. I admit we are not helping ourselves, though.

Awful. KDB and Gundogan particularly bad.

I think part of the problem is that those 2 are playing too far forward, pretty much on the edge of their box which is leaving all the creative work to Fernandinho. They need to drop back a bit and get on the ball to create.

Very sloppy first half. Very poor from Marriner. I'd get one or both of the Silvas on.
