Slightly disappointing performance after the win vs Forest but it is just understandble with the injuries to Ake and Akanji. A mixed bag for Lewis but the ref wasn't great either.

 

[MadchesterCity]

I really couldn’t give a fuck about that game. It’s all about the game against the scum.

Dreading it

Lads 20, bang out of form and played RB, CM, RM and LB in recent weeks. He's a good squad player being asked to fill in everywhere barring up front. It's the senior players letting us down at the moment. 1st goal Gundogan gives ball away cheaply, ball in behind and walker plays the lad onside. Second gosl, absolute shite pass from Bernardo results in a corner and they score a free header poorly defended by walker. While Gundo and Walker are starting, any team with pace and I include the rags next week, will run over us and be a threat.

his age is irrelevant

the fact that he is needed to play so many different positions is just a further inditement of the club....and he is a master at none of those positions. .....players are fit he doesnt get close to th team therefore he aint good enough.

He is a senior player...he is in the first team squad....and other players are letting us down but that is no excuse for him as he is also letting us down with poor performances.

agree on your assessment of both goals but rico has no clue where his man is on the first either.

Agree on walker and Gundo a well

 

[SWPISHOME]

Really.
Stills are not a reflection on reality

You seen to have made your mind up it's the refs fault, that's fine, we disagree.

Watching it live I actually thought Rico did commit the foul, Silly to give the ref a decision to make when you lunge in like he had done on a yellow.

It was the wrong decision unfortunates, Just wish he'd stayed on his feet though.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

You mean send him to Barcelona for a year!

Starting Nunes and Savinho at a tough away game was suicide!

Sadly there is no one fit

 

[East Level 2]

I think a lot of players are carrying knocks and as the schedule is so busy nobody has a chance to completely recuperate, so the injuries are getting steadily worse.

But we all knew the schedule would be busy and we know the players have had bugger all time off for the past four summers so why go with such a small squad?

 

[bluemoon32]

Said it before and got laughed at, what Txiki has done is bordering negligence, the squad is absolutely the weakest I can remember in recent years. Feels like the year after Fergie won the title, if City don’t get a grip of the recruitment and stop concentrating on being the net spend kings it could get worse before it gets better.

I think Txiki is leaving at the right time

 

[herrock]

You could do with some new ones clearly

Their defender cleared the ball, Rico slid in and missed the ball, and the defender caught him following through....after the ball had gone. A penalty to us would have been a shocking decision, although no worse than the sending off.

 

[MadchesterCity]

No, we've just been excellent every other year.

Put the roast chicken and pringles down and see it how it is

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

The reason we didn't win wasn't because rather card but our inability to defend

Pep got it wrong... again

If the title race wasn't over, it is now

And, now you can chill.
