What more can be said about our poor Away Form. It is undoubtedly an issue that we must look at. At home we are phenomenal but our Away form for the past couple of seasons has been a huge let down. 1 point out of a possible 9 against Stoke, Villa and Cardiff isn't acceptable.
 
An offside goal, a great free kick and an individual error from Kompany/Nastasic cost us three goals in a game we completely dominated. How are any of those things Pellegrinis fault? We played well today, it was just an unfortunate result.

I'm not just considering today. This has been a huge issue for the last couple of years. Our Away form last season cost us the season and it may well cost us this season too.
 
Only thing I can think of is a lack of concentration that is leading to these goals conceded. At least we seem able to score when we struggled under Mancini away sometimes.
 
We won't improve until we realize that these teams are at home and owe it to THEIR fans to put
in a performance against us. We sit off to much when teams come at us, we need to press all
over the pitch and ffs keep our concentration.

I agree with this.
 
We are shocking away from home.

Pellagrini handed that to Villa through fucking nonsense selection & decisions. It is plain to see that Negredo and Dzeko cannot play together they are too similar. Jovetic should of started with one of them. Navas on the bench resting for champions league even. Nasri running the game an gets subbed at 2-1 to keep him fresh for Wednesday. When our away form is the way it is he should of learned by now to play his best team. Instead he is prioritising a competition that we have no chance of winning. He did it at Stoke and he's done it again today.

Yes villa had 3 attacks and scored 3 goals. But it was obvious the players were lacking killer instinct in the final Third all game. We relied on set pieces for our goals. If you don't kill it off in the premiership away from home your in massive trouble. And if you play well and don't win regularly away from home then your not going to win the league.

The scum should be out of sight, instead they are 3 points behind. If Arsenal win tonight they are 5 clear of us with stupidly easy fixtures in the next 6. Atrocious from the manager.
