Match Thread | Tottenham vs Manchester City (26/09/15)

2 of their goals were offside. Totally changes the tactics and confidence of both teams. A linesman that cant detect offside. Unbelievable.
Still our shape and effort is shocking.
navas sterling and aguero have done nothing.

This game was sacrificed to the Champions League, which City are nowhere near winning as we know. Problem is the last two league defeats have turned everybody elses season around in the PL and persuaded them we are beatable. So it is a series of understandable but catastrophic errors that are going to take some recovering from. To see United top this evening is scary because they will get better and by the looks of it City need a big kick up the backside from somewhere. Aguero is without doubt in need of some help as I said last week. He is a liability and I never thought I would say that. It is easy to over react to one result and the injuries are a big factor - but also imo something nobody at the club has addressed because it is blatantly obvious that it is not just bad luck and something, somewhere is wrong. A major inquest is needed and fast as they are in a terrible frame of mind to go into a must win CL game. This season was looking so good 10 days ago and is now looking a real mess.

Are we the only side to ever concede an offside goal.

You don't just fucking give up.

There's a thing that's crept into our support with this blaming everyone else when we fail.

 

[Mrmcfc]

Tell me what I have said that isn't true. Since he's been introduced Sunderland aside we've been crap

It's not what you say, to be honest. It's just the knowledge that you revel in your club losing.

 

[Sergio Picasso Aguero]

Oh well least we are still top (for now)

 

[bigbluekev]

Our worst performance for years

 

[VOOMER]

It's all well and good blaming individuals, but we were 1-0 up a soft goal after a poor clearance and the game changes. The we the utter lack of leadership in the club. We used to control the tempo of games. That never happened once today. Today looked like Sunderland a team that isn't bothered. Glad that it's only 3 points but we could be looking at a long hard fight for the top 4.

Good on the lads sticking up for the kid, though.

 

[Dreadzone]

Never wanted MP out mate...never jizzed over him either...you got the wrong man

Sorry x

 

[argyle]

We have not played well this second half but everything has gone against the team. Up and downs of the season. Bad result, unlucky with the officials and some individual mistakes, which changes the momentum of the game.

4-1 loss isn't unlucky. We shouldn't be making individual mistakes at all.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Demichelis didn't even slip! That replay just showed clearly that he tripped over the pitch. You know... that big green flat thing that is ALWAYS FUCKING THERE.

 

[stan bowles]

Never have we needed Silva back more than we do now. I'd start Roberts over Sterling. Going backwards at this rate.

Spot on.

We will still win the league.

Yeah dead happy we've been spanked by a team who usually capitulate against us :/

 

[PragueBlue]

Take Silva out of our team and we become very average - how worrying is that?

And Kompany, Mangala, Clichy, Hart and Zabaleta (in my opinion our best back 5 and none are available).

 

[philiph20]

I think he's average. I'm asking why you're singling out our best player today for criticism.

He wasn't our best player, I thought Fernandiniho and De Bruyne were better even though they were bang average at best. He is shite as is the Spanish Paddy Roche between the sticks.

 

[Sunny Coast Blue]

Kolorov made Lamela look world class the bent twat, disgrace to football, should be a ref..

 

[Luck95]

Blow the whistle ref put us out our misery

 

[bluemoon32]

Just not good enough and too many players go hiding when things dont go well.

 

[Mancity1980]

Do you think we would have lost these 3 games with Silva? I don't, but Pellers has messed up here. We should have used the injustice of the first goal to blitz Spurs in the second half. We have been badly exposed here, whatever happens from here till the end of the season, this will be the Chilean's last.

 

[VOOMER]

Txiki has to answer for this as well. He spent lot of money this summer but we may not improved at all.

The whole club bar our owner should be ashamed this.
