Are you winding me up? The first 5 we lost, the last game we drew. That’s 5 defeats on the run, not 6 :-). This is what you said…

but accepting 6 defeats on the bounce has been unpleasant viewing to say the least

Oops. Sorry mate, not winding you up. Last night's game felt like a loss and it's obviously affected my thinking : )

For years it was "city won't stop trying to score". It is not that way and hasn't been for 18 months.

I thought we were ok yesterday until the ridiculousness of the last 15 minutes. We actually played some through balls, not nearly as many as we should, but more than most games this season. Gundogan was the primary passer and he was better than he has been all season, but still way too slow.

We just stopped trying to score once we made the subs. I think for a team that has conceded 2 goals in every game this season (or at least it seems that way) to bring on a kid and plop him at centre back just seemed foolish and/or naive.

Pressure forces mistakes, and we invited pressure on once we stopped trying to score.

For all the pile on Gvardiol, who looked fine until Ake went off, Ederson was at fault for all 3 goals in someway or another. The lack of communication with Akanji for the first one, letting the ball between leg and post on the 2nd one, and then the 3rd one oh lord.

You have to laugh sometimes or you will cry/smash something (depending on who you are).

Personally I was prepared for a 4-3
defeat once they scored.....


(it never really leaves you you know.....) : - )

The losing run is over!!!! Take the small wins. Looking like CL playoffs at best for us with the games we have coming up, but we managed to get 3-0 up and things fell apart after the subs. Take the positives. We didn't lose, even if it feels like one. Bring on the dippers!!!

I've really been trying to cheer myself up today, but nothings cutting the mustard. However, another positive is our unbeaten CL home run is still intact. A little comfort in these dark times. Narrr, I couldn't give a shit! Last night felt like a defeat. :(

I do wonder if all the talk of the charges is getting to the players heads a little bit. When the manager openly talks about the possibility of relegation, that players must think along those lines as well. The team just looks mentally and physically exhausted at the minute.

Spurs A
Bournemouth H
Sporting A

Could say we lost the second and half, well last >15 mins For sure it’s 6 without a win

Hi Kaz. Don’t you just love this magical plan B folk on here know of :-)

One nil down in a UCL final and resorting to Kyle Walker long (medium) throws.

Pressure does odd things.

I genuinely couldn't sleep last night because it was on my mind. Think it was about 5.30 this morning before I nodded off. It's crazy how it affects us.

6 without a win was mentioned on radio this morning and I got confused. Let's just hope it isn't 7 on Sunday.

Fuck off back to rag cafe

They were out in force last night. They stand out like a fucking turd in Santa's garden.
