On the bright side:
No team in world football, aside from possibly Bayern, could cope with the injuries we have at the moment. Having a not fully fit Aguero, missing Silva, Komps, Hart, Zabba and now Yaya. That's the entire team of our squad out.
On the negatives:
We were absolutely woeful. Utter dross. Only City and half a dozen countries from Middle Earth can make Lamela look good. The guy is utter useless and we make him look like Messi.
Forget the two goals, we were terrible. No cohesion, no smooth passing, nothing. We either set up as a counter attacking team and defend deep or push up as a team. What we did was press forward and defend deep which let Spurs have a free run at us. Utter disgraceful tactics.
Another note, we officially have a squad full of shithouses. Not fucking one of them was willing to beat a man. I don't know whether its Pellegrini coaching it out of them but its costing us dearly. Time and time again we had a two on one opportunity out wide and instead of the full back of winger drawing the player in then passing it, they pass first time which easily allows the spare man to be closed down.
Hopefully this was just a bad day at the office. A wake up call, like most champions have at some stage in the season.

Disgraceful performance but quit with the fucking knee jerk reactions. Seriously, there are a lot of fannys in need of a wipe right now.
I'm guessing those that aren't yet able to untwist their knickers are the same group that get excited and say we're gonna be the next invincibles a when we have a few solid games at the beginning of the season.
Anyone who says this shows we are on the verge of a crisis is a complete tit and should consider sending in a job application to BT, Skysports and the Daily Mail. Shit happens. And no, that doesn't mean we should learn nothing from the mistakes made on both the part of the players and manager.
Barcelona 1 - 4 Celta Vigo anyone?

Was he fuck.So was Hart actually injured then??
Willy shouldn't get a game outside of the league cup.
Pellegrini doesn't like to only give 'keepers one game at a time. He did the same last season, league cup and the following league game. Plus he was on the bench and available.

We have to ask why conceding our first goal v Juve, after 5 successive clean sheets, has suddenly led to a collapse in organisation and concentration. No bottle in our team at all.

Here comes the "you're all flappers, it's just one game don't panic" post. How many times do we need to be tactically exposed? Pell seems to be a terrible motivator which is VITAL when managing a team like city
There is no way City can win in Germany, where will the goals come from? Best hope is a draw.
We will probably have dickheads on here saying we will win 4-0, they never learn.
Yaya gets in our starting XI on reputation alone, absolute passenger today.
Normally when we have poor games we've had a player pull us out, whether it be Agüero last season or Silva or Kompany. No one stood up and took responsibility today.
Distinct lack of leadership on the pitch.
