Post Match Thread: City vs Southampton

I thought we played well first half and deserved our lead. Not so good second and the 3rd goal was much needed as from half time to that goal we were poor. Southampton had a few too many chances for my liking. Overall a win is the main thing today though.

Delighted and relieved with the points.
Good selection and much more impetus. Excellent first 30 but error strewn and in cohesive thereafter.
Well done Willy, excellent safe, a real test that I'm not sure we'd have come through if they'd equalised.
Decent looking breaks and opportunities ending with the inability to find a man or passing behind a player.
Confidence and anxiety the problems today.
Not the manager nor motivation.

Good post. I was very pleased with the first half. Southampton are a good team. Things to work on as always but well done City. Lots of effort and running which for me creates space & pass options.Toure played a superb ball down the wing to De Bruyne around 35 minutes..as did Otamendi out of defence to Sterling later who could've scored. These are the things that City could do more of & has the fans on their feet and applauding in appreciation.

The fact he was offside wasn't great. He should be able to stay onside in that type of situation.

Agreed.

He was looking across the line so should have kept his run in check, shame really as it was a great move.

I'm happy, poor performance and we won 3-1, comfortably by the end, that's good enough for me, we do have issues to attend to though, Yaya is fast becoming a passenger too often lately. Pogba would seem the ideal replacement, but that's a topic for elsewhere.
