It's the way we've lost the games this season that has really bothered me, though.
Cardiff - 1-0 up, silly changes, lack of concentration.
Aston Villa - 2-1 up, silly changes, lack of concentration leads to a mistake.
Chelsea - 1-1 and in control, lack of concentration leads to a mistake.
Sunderland - Nothing can be said about this really, it was just a dodgy 1-0 we would have won on another day.
Chelsea - Lost Fernandinho and Aguero. Huge losses, Chelsea played us perfectly.
Liverpool - 2-2 and in control, silly changes, lack of concentration leads to a mistake.
We'll have thrown this title away if we don't win it.
I think this is the second season in a row that we have thrown away the title and I'm well pissed!!
The squad seem incapable of rising to the occasion this season in the majority of the "must win " games. We couldn't beat Bayern at home, couldn't beat Barca home or away , drew away with Arsenal' s reserve side , screwed up against Chelsea in the league and against Wigan in the FA cup and failed to turn up for the first quarter of the game v Liverpool.
No-one is denying that we haven't come a long way in the last 6 years but we could and should have done so much better with the squad we had last season and this. I think we need to do a lot of strengthening in the transfer market because as a squad we seem to have stood still since we won the title. At one stage we were in for 4 trophies and we are going to end up with the least prestigious only. Sadly,typical City for another season at least.
