Well at least I can watch the Manchester Originals to cheer me up.....

Rodri's gash. He would've been run absolutely ragged with the pace of that game and how end to end it was.

He's a very good player couldn't have been any worse than Fernandinho today. Maybe he's not fully fit but this could be a season too far for him. Mind you Gundogan didn't look any better.

2 in the middle left them both rather exposed though.
 
Wouldn't have scored if we'd been playing until midnight, absolutely dreadful performance. I was worried about the defence before the game, should've focused more on our inept midfield and impotent strikeforce. Kane would've made fuck all difference today as he'd have been feeding on nothing. Lots to work on for next Saturday and a must win game already
 
And that’s what happens when you leave half of your first team on the bench. Never learns about playing his best and strongest team. Deserved everything we got there.
Idiotic. You don't know which players are fully fit, or how they have been playing in training. He seemed to pick a few based on their pre-season performances (the back 4, Fernandinho). Maybe he got it wrong tonight but the idea he has an aversion to picking our best players is silly. Rotation is an absolute necessity for us.

There is a reason Pep Guardiola is the most successful manager in world football and you are some rando complaining about him on the internet.
 
Silver lining. KDB looks prime KDB in that 15 minutes. Beautiful passes and a good attempt on goal. Other than that,

I thought Sterling and Grealish were too cautious. I trust them to grow better into the season.

Mendy is Mendy. The few games he’s played, at the price we paid, I would expect him to be several levels above Clichy. But I would take Clichy and Zinchenko any day over Mendy.

Ake. Posted in his performances thread. My personal opinion, he’s one of our worst signings. Championship level.
Mendy only does ok in pre season, against shit sides a embarrassment for our club today
 
Don't think Ake was bad to be honest. Mendy, enough has already been said. Unbelievable that we are trying to work things out with make shifts LB's and Mendy with probably spending 230 million in this window. Obvious gaps in the squad.
Ake is sideways/backwards.
Unable to pick out a midfielder with a pass through the lines and be a catalyst to break forward.
Its what he doesn’t give us!
 
Hi as a spurs fan my assessment was that City were good but I just thought Spurs as a team played out of their skins in the 2nd half.
I'm obviously over the moon as for me City are the best team in the league. You can tell just by the fact they're able to bring on De Bruyne and he just changes the game instantly.

I'm sure you already know this but the weakness today for me wasn't the lack of ST rather that left-hand side with Mendy. We got a lot (too much) joy from there.

I also do wonder if this result/match has any effect on your pursuit of Kane.

Great game and good luck for the rest of the season!
 
Predictably under cooked. Decent for 20 minutes, then lost the midfield battle,

We also shit our pants when the crowd gets behind the opposition. Hence why we only win at Klanfield when there is no fecker there.

We come 3rd or 4th this season. Unless we buy a decent DM..
 
Match fitness and sharpness will come.
How many of that starting Spurs team played international football over the summer?

We could have been 2 up inside 10 minutes and on a different day they would have been rocking.

Tanganga was seemingly allowed to foul at will, never seen a player get two final warnings before. Again on another day he goes into the book and doesn’t grow into the game.

Poor result and we can’t afford another game like that this side of the break but hopefully it’s out the system and we see Zinchenko, Stones, Walker and KDB back into the side next weekend.
 
Poor performance, picked up when our best player came on. Him and Grealish will be phenomenal this year but I feel that won't be enough this year. We wont get enough goals. We need to keep Laporte at all costs because Ake as back up is not a good situation and as for Mendy well he's absolute dross. Watching him makes me feel a little agitated every time he gets the ball. Easily our worst player in the squad and needs to go.
I don’t think ake is bad. He always seems solid but Mendy does not put him in easy situations either…
