I’ve been very critical of him recently but Rodri again has looked good. It’s almost like he needs all the passing options to be longer so he can’t get caught playing useless triangles

Hope we can come out second half and carry on where we left off.. We seem to switch off in the dressing room sometimes and let the opposition off the hook. We can’t afford to slip up today, we need to get back in the mix, where we belong .... Macpointy is an utter disgrace and stealing a living like his phlegm spewing mate .... Come on City ....!!!

I turned the commentary off after six minutes
Two silly old fools rambling on again instead of describing what was taking place in front of them

Mahrez has been fine, I swear some of you don't even watch the game.

Kev looks off it, some really poor final balls from him. Hope he can shake it off

Fine doing what? Kev trying the killer ball for the win.

Regarding Mahrez watch, think he’s worked himself into some really good positions with really good pieces of skill but just hasn’t succeeded with that final ball. He’s done pretty poor stuff aswell, bit of a mixed bag from him so far but certainly not a horror show!

Once he gets beyond his marker to the byline he takes an extra touch that allows a defender to get a block in.

Quality for the most part. Bit sloppy at times and allowed them to get into it in the last 5 mins but overall can't have many complaints.
Sterling the stand out player up front whilst the two CBs continue to offer a sense of calm.
Kev has had good and bad moments, still looks a yard off at times.
Like us to kill the game early second half. Torres looks a player.

His height and positional play has been crucial.Still his pace is an issue,but that isnt news and it wont change.

Touchwood, very solid 1st half performance, I just feels sorry for Bernardo, he is running a lot and is everywhere on the pitch, but what is his role actually? Did Pep let him play like this or...?

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

FFS, some of the commentary regarding Kyle scoring against his old club. He'll have ruined football on his own if that's the winner.

 

[wolviedinho]

Mahrez is no different to navas. Gets into good positions but does not deliver

 

[BlueT]

Would like to see Phil brought onto the left, and Sterling switched to the right on 60 mins.
