Is it time to panic yet?

[RichardDunneOwnGoal]

Form all over the place, only consistent thing is our shocking defending, and now we're in 5th and just two points above the rags.

Wasn't that long ago our lead above them was double digits.

Really didn't see the season sinking into the doldrums like this. Not time to panic just yet, but I'm beginning to twitch.

Just holding out hope that Gabriel Jesus has a big initial impact, we need that confidence boost as a side.

i would sound prick but given the shambolic state of the team. the hype surrounding guardiola and some players.

it would better to not to get the top 4. there is a need for a reality check the tactics and some players are simply overrated.

you would say this was the year we will be top with a distance but no. since the game agaunsh celtic and changes made something went wrong

some fans need a reality check to come down from their bubble the same could be said about the club (players and management)

During Mancini era in 4 years except thelast one. every time we watched the game and were behind we always fightback and many times scored at the end i would not forget the cup game against united 3-0 down with 10 players and we managed to score 2 inthe second half and were close to equalise !!! would you imagine a game like that right now !!! we never lost by hight margin score until the genius Guardiola :) came here

for me there is no panick i washed my hand im not mad anymore since every time quiet same old story

the best thing would being completly out of top4 (forget it) try to advance in CL ( unless we crash out against Monaco) and go for the Fa cup

Next summer the should be a clear out. all the teams in PL are aware and prepared to face city, in this case we need players with talents and guts not passengers otherwise trashing scores like today will happen again and again

He just looks fed up and fucked off.
I just think he's probably thinking that he can't implement his style in this league with our Dad's Army.

Now that's an idea. Private Godfrey in goal, Corporal Jones up front and Captain Mainwaring orchestrating from the technical area. Where would Pike fit, and what happens if Pike gets booked - Don't tell the Alty Fan yer name, Pike!

if i can add. not winning rhe PL title is notmal it happen thats football and comoetition but to concede it since Decembre withall the resources and hype arroynd that is fucking disaster and joke

 

[Cheesy]

5th best in goals scored and 8th best in goals conceded. Not time to panic yet as we're only three points off second (albeit with a far inferiror GD), however those stats do point to a team that will find it difficult to achieve top 4.

I'm pissed off by the game today too, but what a load of overreactions going on in here.



What do you mean, "now"? You said the exact same things in the post-match thread for the Liverpool game and Spurs game. In fact, a quick browse through your post history shows you haven't really done it other than to criticize Pep, suggest he's a fraud, wish that he would leave after half a season at the helm.



Er...

Sorry should have said away games

 

[bluemoon32]

Typical City, we get supposedly the best coach in the world and he ends up looking like a lower league coach.
I think personally his ego won't handle the failure very well and i think he'll walk away.
Hopefully things will come good but i just dont think he'll stick around.

Shut up,go support someone else

I thought the whole point of a forum was for people to express their personal views. Your comment for someone to "shut up.." just because you don't agree with them is pathetic.

As for panicking now, we have to stick with Guardiola for at least his three year contract and to not do so would be crazy. But don't forget criticism can be constructive....pretending everything is okay is much more dangerous. The reality is that people criticised both Mancini and Pelligrini, but so far under Guardiola, NOTHING has improved. Our league position so far is worse than last season's finish; our points total is inferior too. We have an inferior goalkeeper and key players....Aguero, Silva, Toure etc are consistently underperforming. Our possession tactics again cost us goals today.....there is not yet one shred of evidence of improvement on last season. I think things will get sorted and improve, but the question is when? We can only pass judgement on what we have seen so far.

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

I keep hearing this season is now just a transitional season!
I also heard last season was a transitional one was as well!
Well neither are that! Transitional is when your going through a change. We are not yet going through a significant change!
This season is just plain shit, much like last season! The transition will only start when a proper over haul has taken place!
