Absolutely pathetic last 30 minutes.

Years gone by we equalise and we go onto win not concede another fucking 4.

Absolutely astonishing we haven't bought anybody for that midfield we don't have.

 

[its a Barm]

Thought we were the better side up to 1-1 then I've no idea what happened I really don't rate arsenal

 

[blueste41]

Give it 2 days and the deluded will be back telling us our bad run is behind us, we'll smash Real and win the Chumps league.
The bare truth though is that top 5 looks unlikely.

 

[Man-chester copperpot]

why do we not shoot on the edge of the area?
We’ve seen today what can happen

Shitbags

 

[Blue tiger]

It’s been a long time coming.

Ortega, Stones, Nunes, Akanji, De Bruyne, Gundogan, Ake, Bernardo, Kovacic…so many players are finished here.

If we don’t bring in at least González tomorrow, I can’t honestly fathom how we’re going to make top four. Without Dias, Ake and Rodri, we concede goals for fun.

No bollocks in that backline without Ruben.

 

[johnevans]

Completely unacceptable performance, on and off the pitch.

Sort it, City.. get your arse off those laurels you've been resting on since last May..

 

[Sky Blue]

Well in the game til the Foden fuck up. Stones shithouse on 2 goals with back turning.

 

[MMA]

Pep is finished , sad to say it but his time has come.

Teams all over Europe from every division have slowly been building teams and tactics against peps style..

We've had years of success with peps tactics but the reality is teams all over have caught up or passed us by...

 

[Phoenix900000]

To all the fans saying Pep needs to go give your heads a fucking wobble

It's not his fault Foden gave the ball away for the second that led to the result

Cause in my eyes City were in the ascendancy after Haaland scored

 

[wythenshaweblue£££]

The game was in the balance and then we folded like we have done all season. We need a major clear out in the summer. Win next weekend and move on from this .

 

[WallyA]

5 goals from 1 xG is a pretty big indicator of good finishing yes, but shit defending.

So much passive defending, no eagerness to stop shots.

Im not gonna blame just the backline because the midfield and forwards were shit too, especially Foden.

I also wish Pep didnt keep tinkering the system over and over again.

We should have tried the 433 and played Stones DM or even KdB deeper and plays balls over for Marmoush and Haaland who basicallt couldnt get in the game at all with Pep set us up.

 

[half & half derby scarf]

Nothing to play for in that game sadly, for either team, but the way we collapse and lie down is spineless. At this point i'd throw on all the academy kids and see what we've got.

 

[wolviedinho]

Play youth? No chance of that.
That young fullback they had and the lad who scored the 5th would never get off our bench, if they even got on it……

Can’t compare us to Arsenal. We win stuff, well we used to.

 

[Blu1]

Why are we not playing jack in midfield ????????!!??????????

 

[Mayor West]

Embarrassing but not surprising.
A starting team with a poor 2nd choice keeper, a midfielder playing right back and the worst midfield in the PL and that’s what you get.
Does not help we seem to be as much danger to ourselves as the opponents are with us gifting them 2 of their first 3 goals.
For the club to be on the final transfer deadline day and not addressed the RB and midfield issues is incompetence.
Pep seems to have no clue how to fix this, playing a team not suited to Marmoosh and Haaland with the entire midfield unable to spot runs, Foden resting on his POTS award and seems to have regressed and after Madrid comfortably beat us then 5th is the best we can hope for.
No desire or hunger in most of these players and most need to be shipped out

Don't you mean the world's best second choice keeper?

 

[Roachy]

Everything is fine.

Real is our next game after the FA Cup.

Newcastle, Liverpool right after that ..fantastic.

Great!!

Yeah then Madrid again and Spurs who are sure to turn up.

 

[bearcityblu]

Congratulations Gooners, you win the 2nd place in the league trophy again. Plus the Geordies will dump you out the League cup on Wednesday.
City, back to square 1, passing poor, defence poor. Shocking 2nd half.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

Why did KDB not start?

Haha.

 

[Rodri’s ACL]

Wow. Worst game this season. Arsenal really showed that Erling was right. They don’t understand the whole “stay humble” gig. Haven’t seen a trophy in a good while at the Emirates. If beating arguably the worst city team in 9 years is what correlates to us wining a treble in terms of celebrations is what pleases them, so be it.

Horrible from the defence. Cambiaso badly needed, nothing on nunes, just not a fullback.

Only positives Marmoush, maybe Savinho and Erling.

Whatever Tolmie has lined up for us would want to be nice.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Fed up of gifting goals!
