Come out from behind the sofa guys, it's all over. Just the 4.....

My worry is that we're not scoring goals. Possession and passing well is all very nice but we need points. Obviously we weren't going to get anything today but I don't understand why Duffy was dropped.
We've played City in the last two years & kept it to 1-0 and 2-0.

As nearly every expert has said, changing the formation today so early in the season would have been a mistake, as it undermines the usual tactics for the rest of the season

International break.

Ok the next home game then clever clogs

Sinking towards the bottom 3 quickly now

I think we'd have got all 3 points if Big Jurg had started.

Sorry, had to do it.

We'll be bottom half this season, so we're trotting off back to where we live.

I think we're playing better than last season, so I'm happy. Anyone who genuinely thought we'd rock up to the Emptihad and thrash them wants to give their head a wobble.

I don't feel one bit less positive.

I think we are playing more attractive football this season but also that we are showing we are short of quality in both penalty areas and that is where it matters. Unfortunately this will mean bottom 6 but hopefully out of the bottom 3 come the season end.

Instead of Aguero

Well I enjoyed watching us play. City took their chances, we didn’t and March’s decision making is shit!

I really like Webster. Our MOM today.

Did you not see him fall over for the first goal and nearly gift them a second?

 

[crookie]

Did Connelly see anything of the ball ?

Sheff United getting point is probably worse than losing to City.

Nope. Not single touch.

No one got hurt. And we play them next time at home.
One point out of six is a realistic target with this lot.

We're not in Europe yet....

A strangely enjoyable 4 - 0 defeat that.

Positives, it wasn't painful to watch. We actually played some football and showed a few glimpses of promise.
Webster played well. As did Burn, again
Connolly looked unphased when he came on, made a few good runs and would surely have score had Gross cross got to him.

Montoya and March didn't excel, but it's hard to be too critical against one of the best teams in the world.
