Good post. We’re lacking a pair of top class wingers. Phil as we know is best when played central, Doku is just awful and Grealish is just okay. Pep has been forced to play Phil wide annd while he’s pretty good it’s nog enough. In contrast, Arsenal have the best balanced team with no weaknesses and that’s why they’ll win it ahead of Liverpool.

Grealish is not spectacular but it's games when he's not there when it's noticeable that we don't control games in the same way without him. He's a very important player in that scenario and one of the best there is at carrying out that role. We could have done with him today.

Doku just seems like an Adama Troare type to me. A nightmare to defend against when he has the ball but the end product is rarely good.

If we didn't play well and still got a point.....?

If we did play well and got a point.....?

Thirty points to play for including arse at home !!

It's your duty to get behind this team who are playing for history and immortality !!

Love the pundits waxing lyrical about Dias.. saying how great he was only to show three complete fuck ups clean through on goal. If he played for us we would be blaming him.. not celebrating his inept finishing.. as would they!

Many moaners as usual. We ve tied at Anfield against really fired up Liverpool on last game of Klopp vs PL City.

Granted, they were the better team second half, still we had our chances. You have seen, that they a bit outfought us second half and thats the thing a tough away ground may do to yourself.

You can compare this game to almost all our high stakes UCL away games last season or previous: Real, Bayern, Atletico. Thats how we approach these games. Foremost not loose, do most important things with advantage of home turf.

They put a bit more into this game, but lets see how its going to pan out at the end. I will not judge ours team capabilities middle of the March, because our state/intensivity/longevity may still be according to plan.

Micah Richards making me want to smash the telly

City player - Arsenal fan.

At least Lee Dixon isn't holding back his Arsenal fan boying in USTV.

Because he frequently comes out like a kamikaze keeper and unnecessarily takes massive risks. Let's hope it doesn't happen in a key CL match

And 99% of the time it works.

Not helped by a slow, under hit, lazy pass from Ake.

You didn't see us play against wolves

Or Villa.

It also depends on how well the taker hits them.

I knew he would go right and so did Eddie. That was the leg he was injured. Nearly got a hand to it.

Our tactics are still a huge concern, the gaps in midfield and 1 pass rips our defence wide open.
We were fortunate at 1 down v Rags they messed up quite a few breaks/passes and 2nd half today our defence was all over the place with 1 pass getting Dippers through time and time again and only poor finishing earned us a point.
Team is screaming out for a quality player alongside Rodri, and proper full backs and more pace and energy. Alverez again is not a winger or midfielder and yet again our tactics nullified Haaland
