Enough is enough.

I think it is only a matter of time before Blues start to get really unpleasant with him. Think Richard Edghill and Paul Power.

Thought we were quite sloppy yesterday. Gave them a lot of chances to break but luckily they didn't have enough quality to hurt us.

There it is in a nutshell. The poor teams can't hurt our poor defence enough to beat us, the quality teams can.

Because he was somewhat fortunate that it actually went in.....he didn't hammer it in, he sort of hit the 2 defenders with the ball and it bounced off each of them into the net...not the most convincing finish , hence his sort of non celebration.

I thought he had a good game yesterday - most of his crosses actually found a blue shirt!

And we scored from one which didn't

I think he thought it was going to be marked as own goal. And to be fair so did I.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

what stubbornness? that was Bravo's first league start since January. as in over 2 months ago.

Bravo the usual joke

Couldn't go yesterday but sounded like a morgue again. Why are we so bad ? Fair play to Delph but when it needs a player not really popular who's been out months to demand some atmosphere it's poor.

I thought it was a decent performance from the front half, somewhat dodgy from the back. Unfortunate for Stones that it was his deflection because I thought he was the only defender surrounded by wage thieves.

Sane had a poor game but he never went hiding, never let his head drop and kept trying, I was happier with that than some of his good performances. Showed some true determination.

Silva amazing and Sterling...well holy fuck. Toure's passing was mostly on point and a deep lying player who can pass like that is worth his weight in cake. Navas was good in possession and utter gash without. He is not a fucking defender Pep you stubborn cunt.

He'll play Fern1 or Navas at fullback, play Sane and Sterling as wingbacks, Kolarov as a centrehalf but he can't teach joe to kick a football short??? Fuck you Pep and your hologram man.

Have a look at the first page of this thread, if the attitude on here is reflective of what's in the Etihad then is it any wonder there's a shit atmosphere?

This season has been a joke. Any wonder people feel flat. Spurs and Chelsea running away and us battling for the arsenal trophy.

We have an XI with Yaya, Silva, Aguero, Sterling and Sané starting and people are throwing in the towel or just complaining and grumbling, we seriously need to get a grip.

surprisingly, despite being one of our in form players at the moment, he touched the ball the 2nd least (only ahead of Aguero) out of the outfield players. I feel like we should be trying to get him the ball a lot more than that.

I wouldn't mind having a "poor defence" JL; I think that would be a distinct improvement upon what we have at the moment.
