I don’t even hate Mou, but I’m aware that being a critic of the manager upsets a few for some reason. I really think we need to get used to the fact that we will change managers a lot. No need to worry about whether others love them. |

Isn't it simply that the goals originated from errors but we still had plenty to do?
I would expect most defenders to not f*** up as badly as Arsenal did under pressure, but we were hardly presented with open goals either. For errors that are basically handing the team a goal, looks no further than our two conceded yesterday The arsenal game was far from perfect, but I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest there is a stark difference in how we chose to attack Arsenal and how we chose to attack city. We didn't attempt produce anything resembling Lingards two goals. It was almost exclusively big punts up pitch. And then there's the attitude. When we sensed weakness in Arsenal, we piled on.....we just look plain shit scared of City yesterday |

Not least Valencia, whose position said everything. Stark contrast to Sunday where we stood right off from the first kick. |

Valencia high up the pitch as a result of being the wing back and not the full back too. In an attacking sense, he was a winger in the first 5 mins. He'd have been 10 yards back if he was in a 4 or we weren't committing bodies forward. Sunday's tone was set very early. So passive and just allowed city to settle right in, give plenty of space to De Bruyne & Silva and show the two immobile Centre Backs that we'll be going aerial to a striker who can't hold the ball up with his back to goal. We played right in to their hands. Still gutted about it |

How many central defenders have they been through in the last few years? 100 million spent on 2 fullbacks this summer, which was at least double their worth, and if they didn’t work out they’d be spending another 100 million on two new fullbacks next summer until they hit the jackpot. Then some dick says haven’t they spent well, why can’t we do that. well we do actually do that, but when our players don’t work out it’s noticeable because we can’t just write it off. Quote:
