City v Arsenal post match discussion

[bluefandk]

if we want to win a trophy this season we need to improve.

Shite performance. Dzeko aside (why did he get subbed??), most players look well out of form.

Garcia is worryingly slow and one-paced for the PL.

Other than that, Aguero should have had a penalty. This is why players go to ground easily - it's the only way to get the decision.

Our mentality is weak at the moment. We lack the desire, & often i feel like we're too arrogant in our play. This whole we'll outscore you even if we concede mentality needs to dealt with.

We lack hard work atm.

Lets hope we can turn it around soon, only 5 games in I know but we don't want to be falling away too much even so early on.

All your whinging in here please

Why take Edin off.

Cuz to shuffle and shuffle the team till we put Mario in.

It's really amazing the difference one sub can make....

1st half - Rodwell for Sinclair = we had Arsenal by their nuts for 20 minutes afterwards.

2nd half - Tevez for Dzeko = no hold up play, no physical presence up front = Arsenal owned us for last 20 minutes.

Sorry lads - this game is all on Roberto.
He is stubborn with some of his attitudes, and will not adjust - and I am starting to have doubts about his ability to take such a GREAT team forward.

Taking Dzeko off was a bad move.. come on Bob ffs get your act sorted.

No surprise. We didn't improve our starting 11 and face the same difficulties against the same opponents.

Arse will press us at the Emirates and it will be a repeat of last season.

People wondered why it seemed such a big deal that we didn't bring in anyone of genuine class to improve the team. The train of thought that this team won the title so should do again proving again to be sorely misplaced. No surprise its so hard to win back to back titles, because too many teams adopt that mentality..

I've seen few bizarre Mancini's subs but taking Dzeko off today beats them all easily.

Aguero was very poor and dzeko was playing well, should have taken aguero off. Thought we were terrible today and all season to be honest 3 draws out of 5 is not good enough
