Blue ROI Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Missed today. Unavoidable. Sensed it was one I wouldnt regret. 2-0 defeat to what is the in-form team in World football. No surprise De Bruyne was to the fore. Expected him or Jesus to be the difference.Lo and behold.. Was never bothered about this all that much as I expected a loss. Next! The games until Man Utd will be ones we can expect something from.
foxes67 Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Think we did what we could against Pure class. Lot of things to like about how we played, This Man City side could go unbeaten this season...
Guest Sharpe's Fox Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Best part of the afternoon was Cambiasso coming out at half time. Apart from that everything went according to what was expected.

I felt we lacked some aggression today and it was more of an audience with “Man City”. Appreciate they’re possibly the best side in the league at present, but roll the red carpet out for them and they will punish you. I thought we did okay, I don’t think they outclassed us and I think that they had to work hard for their goals. At the same time I’m slightly disappointed because I feel bad we been a bit more aggressive and had a bit more belief we could have snatched something. They will probably win the league so we just have to forget about it and take advantage of a mismatched West Ham. I very much hope I’m wrong. But he just doesn’t seem to inspire any real confidence in me. Maybe its just his dour personality, I’m not calling for him to be sacked that would just be plain daft, but I think the West Ham game will be telling, certainly in terms of what he wants to do.
Tuna Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 I didn't catch any of this other than updates on talksport, it seems to have gone exactly as I expected beforehand. If we're looking at positives, we have only lost -2 goal difference. These beat Liverpool and Watford by 5 and 6 respectively earlier in the season.

Mike Oxlong Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Sterling walks around like he’s just bobbed his pants.
chris_lcfc_85 Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 No need for any form of over reaction today. We were beaten by arguably the best side in Europe at the moment. Granted there were things we could of done better and we can argue puels tactics didn't help but I'm glad he's trying different things, we've been crying out for new ideas for some time, some will work, some won't.
The Quick Brown Fox Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 No doubt Kompany should have seen red, would be a different post match thread if so.
sdb Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Yep that's a red. Thought as much at the time but have wondered if it was the heat of the moment. If thats Morgan on Jesus... ?
Lovejoy Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 People questioning the manager after losing to that City side. 'kin hell .
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Manchester City were top class, and are the probable title winners. We couldn't really get back into the game today because of how well they kept the ball. Subs should've come on earlier - left it too late with Slim and Okazaki... I don't think it was a case of personnel either. Felt to me we could've tried a variety of different options and I think we'd still of lost. Excellent opposition, Man City are a team playing at the top of their game at the moment. Also noticed through different periods of the game today, how Man City took the sting out of it. Have to be a very good team to do that, and they are.

Mike Oxlong Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 The lino down the West Stand was utterly star struck by Pep and his team. Bet he was lurking outside their dressing room with his autograph book after the game.
rn9013 Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 For me a major positive out of today’s game was Iborra. The guy is oozing class and could turn out to be crucial for us going forward.

Man City will dish out some more wallops as the season go by. I'm glad we're done with them for at least another 3-4 months.

Bet he was lurking outside their dressing room with his autograph book after the game. There was an incident in the second half where Vardy was putting Fernandinho under pressure. Fernandinho went down, held the ball between his legs, then stood up and the ball bounced forward onto the line by the corner flag at which point he put his arms out to stop it going out. This literally could not have been closer to the linesman without the Lino going on the pitch and he didn't give a handball. He also seemed to have a pretty loose grip on the offside law. Very trigger happy in the second half compared to the first.
knowf***all Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 West stand Lino was awful, I thought at the time Harry's shot was deflected on to the post by a hand?? anyone got footage of that or do I have to wait till MOTD on the whole I think we got what we deserved from the game and must admit I applauded KDB when he got subbed it was like watching Brazil

I then went back to dozing and it dawned on me 'What's the point, even if we did decide to turn up at give it a go, with these officials we'll get nothing' it was then when I was willing the 90 minutes to come as quick as possible. It's times like that someone is soon going to go one step too far with officials, I'm not condoning it, we all make mistakes but simple things like this, blatant things
Guest Col city fan Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 They look like we did in the title winning season. Oozing confidence and going into every game expecting to win.
phildw Posted 18 November 2017 Posted 18 November 2017 Appreciate blue tinted specs see the Kompany challenge as Red but having seen it on tv it was a yellow. Stones covering round means ref can’t give a red for that.
