See no point of Walker getting high up the pitch and then not taking on the defender, opting to just pass it backwards

I prefer Foden being on the right like he was last derby.

I think I'd prefer it if he was on the bench

The false 9 doesn’t seem so bad now does it!

we are defo having problems adjusting to a striker , in tighter games the false nine was better

Cmon city we need a good 2nd half performance to get us going again.

Tragic,in all lines...worst KdB and Bernardo ever... :( A team straight back from the middle 80's.... I don't know why, but.... And I don't blame Pep...

Rags are happy for a draw but hope to nick it with one of their long balls. They are guff and there for the taking.

Man, we're a fucking awful watch lately. Not sure I can ever remember so many boring, dire, turgid, shitty games in such a short space of time, almost back-to-back.

we just pulled Chelsea's pants down 6 days ago with scintillating goals

How can anyone watch us on the pitch (not on paper) and think we deserve to win the PL over Arsenal?

This is setting up to be one of those games where we lose the game because of a defensive mistake because we look clueless right now.

De Bruyne is off form, so is Foden. The transition game from midfield to attack is so slow, Haaland isn't being found despite the fact he's making pretty good runs.

We look so conservative, slow, boring, tired and uninterested.

We haven't had a shot on target in two damn hours of football.

Cut out the sloppy passing and we can win this. There is space in between their box and midfield when we play through their midfield, middle or wide. Should have done better with several good positions we got into.

Agree, should be loads of space as they generally have 3/4 pushed up against our defence. Need to pass between the lines, which we started to do better in the last few mins
