I didn’t say he was shit. I said he’s playing shit, which he is. Anyway 3-1 at the end Ering hat trick ;)
Cant say owt about anyone, cant have any sort of opinion. How dare you question anyone.

Anyway, youre right. Haaland has played like prime jo first half but yes he’ll bag a hatrick
 
Just seen the goal on Twitter, no idea what Ederson was doing, sort of came for the cross then stopped leaving almost an empty net for an easy finish but the lack of tracking back and tracking the run of Ward Prowse was dreadful defending
 
7 shots on target, bad luck with finishing but city played well imho.
 
Let’s be real here, the main player that has contributed to us being behind is Erling Haaland. I know people don’t like saying that but let’s call it as it is. If he is going to miss sitters, we can fall behind in any game.
 
Overall, we played really well. Extremely well, against a very difficult opponent. I think we will win, but even if we don't, i am impressed by our level this early in the season.
 
Have we actually been that bad overall? Usual bossing of possession, 17 shots to three (7 on target to two); if the lanky Norwegian bloke had his shooting boots on.no one would be complaining about the actual performance.
We’ve been okay, done some good things, but we’ve been erratic and had no pattern to our play other than when Doku has had the ball in attacking areas. Our shape looks all wrong.

Håland, Álvarez, Bernardo and Gvardiol need to pull their heads out of their arsed this half. They were all awful in that first half.

But we’ve still created a lot of chances (although that means the square root of fuck all if we miss them!).
 
We've played quite good I think but been very unlucky, Erling should've scored two and he knows it.

Doku has ran Coufal ragged so far very positive display we've had a few nearly chances too, if it was anybody other than Akanji (not slating him) passing to Alvarez, when Julian made that perfect run it probably wouldn't have been overhit and we could've scored.

The players have mostly been inventive and been punished by one mistake, honestly thought this would be our toughest game so far but their keeper their defensive shape kept them in it before their goal.

This is a very positive performance so far bar Gvardiol overcommitting on their goal, even he's okay bar that and the booking we need to keep calm and carry on doing we should score if we do, on another day we'd be 3 goals up by now West Ham have actually defended very well and caught us with a perfect counter fair play.

Whatever happens there's been no lack of effort on our part we've just gotta carry on at it, all it takes is one goal and maybe the floodgates will open up.

C'mon City.
 
Come on big Erling. Take the next chance. Keep your ur heads and the goals will come.
