as soon as they scored they parked the bus....took mata off and played sneiderlin......we have seen how difficult this is when other teams do it and even with the likes of silva and kdb not he pitch.......we have bigger fish to fry
Yes cos we are great at breaking down those bigger busses.
It needs to be better. Last third is piss poor.

We had no shots on goal?? Have you watched the game?? How did we cut through them when we created nothing at all!like you said not sure what you were watching either.....cut through them numerous times without silva and without KDB and aguero or ferna or Ilky......light years behind those you mention.....how exactly? Their coaches have had a whole season already to mould their teams...pep has had 15(?) competitive games.....and we aren't far off....
we have been outplayed twice......spurs and barca....that is it...we have lost 3 games (I think) those two and tonight.....and we played our second team mostly with 9 changes and we were better than their first team for huge parts of the game...stop worrying we will be there or there about at the end of the season

Not happy with PEP he disrespected 9000 blues by devaluing what a derby means. Not just tonight we have been toothless up front for a while now.They were completely ripe for another defeat under Maureen and we let them off the hook Instead of the journos pinpointing there crisis They will quite rightly look at at our depressing stats

Why what are you seeing on the pitch?...The constant sideways and backwards passes are an improvement?
the movement between the lines
the inter swapping of positions
one touch football and the passes to the man beyond the first man with give and goes between 3 players.
possession football even when we have a second string midfield of fernando and A. garcia on the pitch .....
2 kids coming in a doing amazingly well against established internationals like big nose, pogba, mata.
Dean was also a disgrace tonight. Two fouls for their goal the second so blatant and he was stood right behind it with a clear view. Wasn't this the ref who gave two penalties for less than what Herrera did prior to Mata's goal? Also Garcia was clearly fouled at 0-0 and no penalty. The man is a ****.
Im fed up with hearing players are tired and they cant play 3 games in a week with the size of squad we have thats utter horseshit...aint gonna beat barca...kidding ourselves about champs lge...for all those spouting its only lge cup i'd rather have day out at wembley than forking out obscene amounts for travel abroad for a rigged comp. Wake up and smell the coffee pep...aguero and silva shud have been on afta rags scored...no excuses piss poor...back four are all over the place and no shots on target after £160m spend in summer? Futures bright? 3/4th place finish again! That said hats off to the 2 young lads who i thought were superb. Navas and fernando shud have gone in the summer...need another ball winner in middle of park...ndj/barry have never been replaced

Who would you suggest replacing him with? I hear Big Sam is available
I shall hurl opprobrious remarks your way if you mention that odious man again.
Point is we are there right now. We are there because we have the best stats. They weren't gifted to us by the FA were they before the season?Jesus u really think we are going to stay there!!

Normally like Dean but I hope something horrible happens to him in his sleep tonight. Like getting raped.

Oh whoop fucking doo. The kids played well who will probably be sold . Let's rejoice when we see the rags win the cup . We love getting beat by the rags. It gives me a real feel good factor.I am seriously concerned about coming onto Bluemoon. What in the name of good God do some posters see?????? We played fantastic for a reserve team against their strongest team FFS, I think this is a statement in itself. £89 million for Pogba and a kid, Mafaeo, had him and the other filth in his pocket? I am so so proud of them tonight I thought they played fantastic. If people are down to hammering the team because of the result and not what they did then I'm lost for words.

Well I`ve seen a vast improvement in many players from last season so I don`t know how you can state that players have not been up to their standard.Its a new formation and we are still bedding these players into that system ... it wont happen overnight.And here i thought i actually made a post without wumming for you guys not to be like that. Bar the Everton game, the players haven't really played up to their standards.

tonight wasn't great in last third but we know that navas fernando and garcia aint going to to much in the way of helping that......but we needed to rest silva and kdb is injured.......im not sure what pep could have done different tonight.
I'm not a happy clapper, it's just that I'm not a flapper.
I'm confident we'll beat Barca
What is your confidence based on:
- Our current form?
- Recent record against Barcelona?
- Otamendi, Stones and Kolarov keeping Suarez, Messi and Neymar quiet?

Possession football counts for shit when you're losing. Them ****s had 2 years of possession under LVG where did they get them. I wouldn't mind if we had the ball and looked dangerous but we don't. We slow play right down, we let them get back and re group then try break down a brick wall. Fucking woeful
A lot have seen their Arse which is understandable,it's against them,anybody else and it would of bein not a bad performance and nobody would off give two shits. I've followed city for 41 years and I still feel angry,just because it's them, it's hard to let that go easily. At least I'm used to losing ! Lol.

He obviously sent them out thinking a win would be a bonus but not essential judging by his post match interview
Not arsed in the slightest about the result , the performance was alright and Garcia / Maffeo looked first team standard
Must win on Saturday now though
Aguero has had his confidence knocked by something , looks like he's playing from memory
I would put money on him not being here next year
Could be Aguero hasn't fully recovered from the injury he got on international duty?
He hasn't been the same since his return from Argentina.
