Match Thread | Manchester City vs Stoke (08/03/17)

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Fuck about with a winning team and you get what you deserve

We should have had enough tonight.

They parked the bus, and we couldn't unpick their defence. Hughes set them up to spoil, and they didn't disappoint.

One of those nights, we could have played till tomorrow morning and we still wouldn't have scored.

Clichy has got to be the worst full back in the league. Can't tackle, can't run, can't header, can't deliver a ball anywhere.. other than off the pitch. De bruyne was and has been so poor lately, needlessly giving he ball away, and him rolling his ankle just shows he's unfit. Do not know why silva didn't start, Sterling not there? Thinking we can turn up and give 50% effort against lower teams is the reason why we struggle

Right, but we still had enough clear cut chances to put the game to bed.

Need another option up front when Aguero blows cold or gets walled.

Silva and Kelechi had a chance at the end. Don't remember anything else clear cut.

Scary how far behind FCB, RM and BM we are

I really do not think we are too far away from them but I'm convinced we need more than full backs to close the gap

Why play a weakened team tonight,not good enough. Very poor from the manager tonight.
