It was Houghton's poor header that started it, three chances to clear it after that too.Taxi for Stokes
I said it at the time. What was he thinking? Stanway was causing them big problems, so he decides to bring her off for Coombes. Just handed the initiative back to ArsenalTaylor masterclass there with the subs.

A bit nitpicking there. City were a bit unlucky in the game. Coombes only played a few minutesI said it at the time. What was he thinking? Stanway was causing them big problems, so he decides to bring her off for Coombes. Just handed the initiative back to Arsenal
That’s true, they both missed great chances, but I maintain it was the wrong decision to remove Stanway for Coombes; not a slight on Coombes, as you say she was only on a few minutes, but it put us On the back foot.

As I say, bad luck and if Park and Hemp had finished gilt edged chances we would have won
I agree to an extent, but many managers would bring on a more defensive player at 1-0 with 10 minutes to go, but as usual with a City team, we missed too many easy chances.That’s true, they both missed great chances, but I maintain it was the wrong decision to remove Stanway for Coombes; not a slight on Coombes, as you say she was only on a few minutes, but it put us On the back foot.

You were saying. ;)
We should have had the game won before The Arse scored. I suspect any Arse, CFC or Haringay forward would have relished those chances. However, i think that was the best team performance this season. Had we played like that all season we would be challenging for a CL place for certain. Just a little disappointing that we conceded when we did, but The Arse always looked a real threat, particularly after we scored. And we still have our No4 choice in goal. Great pity she didn't keep a clean sheet, but the rest of the season looks a lot more promising than it did a month back.A bit nitpicking there. City were a bit unlucky in the game.
