Mentions lewis but lewis made no mistakes defensively today. It's fucking dog whistle shite at this point.

This right now looks like where Titanic was after that fateful encounter with an iceberg. I am just worried about the final body count.

How do you drop 15+ players? And do you start with Pep?

Pep? Fuck no.

You start by pinpointing anyone who can’t pass, nor run through brick wall.

Throw in the youngsters and buy 3/4 in Jan.

Support the boss through this period and we will be set for 4-5 more season.

Both have a poor injury record…………..it’s all there to see but unfortunately not the hierarchy

Akanji has hardly been injured.

Sideways, sideways, sideways, back, sideways, back, back, sideways, sideways, sideways

We are Side-to-SideChester City!

Going to Juve and winning was always going to be tough but holy hell.. that was a bad watch.

And it proves we royally shot ourselves in the foot with Feynoord..

Ederson at fault for both goals again.. /sigh

How was Ederson at fault with the 2nd goal. The guy was completely unmarked 8 yards out.

I dont know why we are not putting Nico O'reilly in midfield he's 6ft 3, he's got to be a better option than lewis from a physical point of view

This crisis now, this is Manchester city !! Not ipswich town. Winning 1 game out of 10 is more than a bad run or form, thats way beyond it. What makes it even more odd is we started the season pretty well and then totally collapsed.

It would be no bad thing if we did get knocked out (apart from financially, obviously). Let's face it, we're highly unlikely to win it, are we? We need to concentrate on finishing in the top 4 in the league.

If we could stay in it I think we’ve more chance of winning a poor knock out cup than we have of finishing in the top 4.
If Triore had been able to shoot and Stones hadn’t scored two last minute goals, we’d already be bottom half.
In the ‘recent form guide’ we’re only being kept of the bottom by Southampton so ‘concentrating on the top 4’ is impossible for us at the minute.

Apparently, we've conceded more goals since the beginning of November than ANY team in Europe's top five leagues.

Man City's earn horror stat as defeat leaves them in Champions League trouble

Manchester City have now conceded more goals than any other team from Europe’s big five leagues since the start of November. Pep Guardiola’s side earned that horror stat during their 2-…

None of that should matter, if Pep would cut his cloth, according to what we’ve got available. Continuing to play that high line, with no pressing and slow ball is just suicidal.
Can’t we ever just sit deep, in a low block and attempt to play on the counter?

Pep is stubborn and won’t change his philosophy, he does need commending for that , we have become a team of the first 45 minutes , almost every defeat we have played well in the first half , we get overrun in second halves , the question is why ? it’s baffling how we fall apart in the second half of games on such a consistent basis , I’m of the opinion we will click on Sunday , they are dogshite , it’s become a season where the derbies are the cup finals , and hopefully scrape top four.

To be fair we were very lucky earlier in the season. Haaland was actually scoring which papered over the cracks but teams were still ripping us open and we were very lucky to record wins over Brentford, Fulham and Wolves
