Bring back the False 9.
We have become boring, frustrating and predictable.
Wednesday nights B team performance was a reminder of how it used to be.

Oh dear. Let’s get into what they’re paid why don’t we.
I think we need to cut Pep some slack. He’s not done a bad job so far & after one league loss the team gets slated.
We do need at least one new player but we couldn’t have foreseen Rodri’s injury.

Yeh sometimes I think they need a reality check, mental issues because you played shit at the euros, I wish they were my problems. No one could have seen the type of injury but come on loads were predicting it at some point like it was impossible to keep up that amount of games injury free. And it wasn’t like we haven’t had any warnings of how bad we play without him, zero contingency plan.

Okay, injuries have been our only problem this season. You are completely right

Injuries are a major part of the problems we have..
Do you really think if we had a fully fit squad we would be struggling through games???

Well done Bournemouth, I really have to start by saying they played really decent stuff, panicked a little at the end, but a well deserved win.

Their fans must be cocker hoop right now, the best side in their history, playing really good football. Semenyo was a constant menace, a big lad with a good touch and presence. Kerkez was excellent.

City were undoubtedly poor, and recent performances have been somewhat disjointed. I could do a lot of navel gazing at the formation, fitness, blah blah, but it is what it is. We're very much in touch and the co-favs with Liverpool now. We'll always be in with a shout, we're too good to shake off.

Onwards, sporting away and Brighton away will be equally tough so grit your teeth and get behind the team through to the international break.

Thankfully I`ll not be joining some of you who appear to be ready for suicide watch. This was our first defeat in 33 games and sooner or later it was always going to happen that we lose a game.
Some of you are forgetting that we`re involved in a hard match in Portugal in 72 hours so maybe Pep decided that he would/could not make some major substitutions.
Just one of those days I`m afraid, so some of you need to take a grip and look at the broader picture.

Exactly right. Need at least one attacker in January to reinvigorate the team and give Haaland a break sometimes or help him out up front.

We needed that Celtic guy to replace Alvarez, bizarre we did nuttin

same boring negative people on the match thrdad seem to be loving being able to moan on the post match thread

First league defeat since villa away last year, let that sink in and all chill out

Think I will leave watching the “highlights” until it’s on the City site. At least that way I can avoid the gurning gloating cartel media stooges.
