It's our lack of a strong leader - lose Rodri we are fucked..like little babies out there. With Rodri everyone tries harder - I bet he's thinking..just won the world's best player award and I carry this team.

He should use it to demand a massive fucking pay rise

Sporting are average too

They are,but totally deserve this result for the way City started the second half which was a disgrace..

Fuck that. Dig up Alan Ball.

Stop it you're frightening me.

These officials are at it , phantom offside no 42

 

[VOOMER]

Walker..Dias.. Stones....Ake...all injured or partially injured mate No Rodri. No KDB. No Grealish. no Bobb. Etc

Look at the ages and injury record's. WE NEED TO SIGN REPLACEMENTS NOT SQUAD PLAYERS!

All on Guardiola this

It really isn’t.
Missed chances, the game should’ve been out of sight by halftime.
Our midfield and defenders are defending like a bunch of kids this season.
I’d say Sunday league but in all honesty they’d put some crunching tackles in.

Look at all the players faces on the bench, they are absolutely gutted. Something not right and not just injuries, although they play a good part.

What the hell did Pep say to the players at half-time?

All on Guardiola this

The players aren’t pre-programmed robots. You can’t completely absolve them of any responsibility at all. They make their own choices on the pitch.

 

[threespires]

Time for reflection and get back to basics.

Start with a settled back 4 if possible and build from that point.

No point crying, let’s see what we are made of.

The answer to that question would appear to be talcum powder and unset jelly at the moment.
