As another poster pointed out very wisely the other day

The mood swings in here are ridiculous, from ecstatic to rock bottom depression in one game

Just like last season and the season before

Wish we had bought Falcao. Crazy price but he would have had 3 today and Villa would have quit.

Even relegation fodder in the PL will play even with us if we give them hope. Missing so many chances emboldened them. Nasty was the biggest culprit today, but he would have been irrelevant if we had taken our chances.

We bought two strikers and our highest scorer is Toure.

not sure which sentence he is the most stupid, the first or last?

If you want to insult someone about stupid sentences, don't fuck up your own.

The game should have been dead & buried within the first half hour.

Joe Hart's stance was like a lamppost for their 3rd and he was as mobile as one for their 2nd. But discounting the officials preference for the home team, I was more than concerned about Kompany & Nastastic playing like they'd just met each other.

Today was a fluke, but away wins at places like Villa & Cardiff are mandatory if we are serious about winning the league. Newcastle won at Villa Park 2 weeks ago against a Villa team with Benteke.

Not good enough City, we need to put these types of teams to bed early.

This is exactly like the game against Sunderland, when they scored and won (I think was an offside goal) in the 90th minute with their only shot after we dominated. This was under RM.

nasty was really poor today...was partially responsible for all goals today....

He's going to have days like that, given his age and inexperience.

What is a miracle with him is that mistakes are so few and far between that they stand out when he has an off day - class.

with kompany along with him...he can only improve

Still seething about today. Blame the lino all you want for the first, we shouldn't have allowed them the opportunity.

There's a touch of arrogance about us against the lesser teams. The big games take care of themselves. We really cannot afford to lose another game away from home against a team who won't finish in the top 8. It's inexcusable. It's not a one-off, freak result this. It's a lack of concentration. A concerning lack of concentration.

I'm still flummoxed the 2nd more than the third. Why give away the free-kick and why did we basically offer their player half of the goal from a central position?! Watch it again; Hart's too far over and his positioning is wrong. That's why he doesn't move. Literally. Fucking shocking!

Less said about the third the better but that sums us up at the minute. Defensively heroic in challenging situations with difficult opposition but torn apart by a high kick from a goalkeeper.

We should've been 2/3-0 up at half time. Dzeko should've had 2. Same old shit.

It was very cruel that we lost, but at least the players looked like they wanted to win more than they did in the previous away games in the league this season. Bloody typical, isn't it. At least no one got injured.

For most of today's game we were demonstrating progress.

Their first goal was offside. We made two mistakes in the course of two minutes relatively late in the game, one a needless foul, and threw the game away.

Navas and Jojo makes the team weaker today !

Rubbish, Jojo looked good when he came on and how can you blame a player who wasn't on the pitch
when 2 of the goals were scored.

I know he is good player, but Dzeko was more useful than him.


Jojo and Navas couldn't give the team the addition we were waiting for, actually we played worse after making the subs.
