Agreed.de niro said:if we play like that against practually any other prem side we will get beat. united will slaughter us. oh and you can kiss goodbye to a decent run in the champions league.
people may feel my post is over critical but I say it as it is. all the city fan boys who think that was ok are as blind as fuck.
can I please have my Manchester city back?
Relieved we won. Pleased with Fernandinho and Negredo, but a very very poor performance. Alarm bells should be ringing.
The defence is missing Kompany and Richards, but that does not explain all the problems. I don't like Navas stuck out wide on the wing, and two up top. It leaves the midfield outnumbered and unable to play our passing possession game.
All that needed to happen was to maintain the system the players were used to and just slowly integrate the new players. At the moment the cohesion has gone, and suddenly we look like startled rabbits in the headlights.
I'm normally euphoric after a win, but we look like we're going backwards
