Poor defensively. Onwards and upwards.

Need to be much better than that some big games coming up….

 

[Wigan_Citizen]

Overall, a fair result. We didn't defend well enough to win. When was the last time we conceded 4 goals?

 

[madloaf]

Most goals involve a mistake tbf

Do they? Good football v individual errors. These are different things. Ederson and gvardiol mistakes are very clearly not about defensive shape etc.

Anyone thinking it’ll be a similar game at the Etihad will be disappointed we will dismantle them at home pep will see to that mark my words..oh about todays game fantastic game for the neutral or Chelsea fans not so much us yes a point is better than nothing but we should have seen that game out 4-3 up but some chaotic and frankly awful defending saw to that not happening,still top of the league anyhow let’s just hope we are defending a bit better when the red scousers visit..

 

[Cellarite]

Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Absolutely shocking defending today.

We drew.

 

[wolviedinho]

Win the next 4 and all will be well again -:)

 

[kanovic]

Too much rotation at the back turned our defence into a joke.

That’s what happens with injuries.

 

[nellyonthewing]

Dias goes to ground far too easily. He cost us today .

 

[Eccles Blue]

The Boys in Blue didn’t give in. They fought to the end. Thank you City, thank you lads, thank you fans. You did us proud. You showed ‘em, you showed ‘em all.
Especially the Southern softies, especially the stupid, biased, disgusting media. Especially the Specsavers needing officials who are still trying to do us down. But you didn’t do it because we are MANCHESTER CITY!! We did fight to the end. :-)

THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD.

:-)

 

[bluemoon32]

Really poor today, thought Pep would have the answers but he didnt

 

[Chi-town blues]

That was WWE not sport.

looked like typical south american football match.

@jimharri

Sterling v Palmer in terms of class. Yes. I would put him in the stands because he celebrated. Why not?

I have no problem with it. They're Chelsea employees now. They, and us, have moved on. Let them celebrate their cup final. If we'd defended as we can, they'd have had nothing to celebrate.

And yes; I am aware that there's plenty of others that will share your opinion. Almost definitely more than will share mine. So be it.

 

[blueabdi]

Fair result. Defensively we were poor today but good game.

 

[Worzel Gummidge#9]

Foolish of me prematurely thinking that it was over at 4-3 for them to then come back. Chelsea have been poor recently but that still would have been a big scalp if we had won, Nevermind, a point is better than zero points.

Everton away ?

 

[adr2.8i]

Doesn't matter if Doku or Grealish start when Gvardiol is so poor.

Imagine if we could actually find a decent LB?? Where's the next Ashley Cole??

 

[Taylor]

We were awful at the back. All we had to do was see the game out. 2 points dropped for me

 

[Ederson1000YardDrive]

Dias needs to stop going to ground for every tackle. He was at fault for pretty much every goal. Seems to play shit when alongside Akanji.

 

[vmsuhail]

One of the most exciting games of football I have ever seen. Unforgettable. The stuff of legends.

If only the Rodri goal was a winner..

That's fair. You're clearly a gentleman.
