Yeah but we are playing a top top team, probably the closest team to barcelona in passing abillity i do feel sorry for our lads to be honest.


I think we're almost on their level, tbh.


I think we are better than them nqdp but with 10 men its a hard ask for anyone.

Bridge is one of the worst full backs I've ever seen. Vastly overrated.

I'm strangely ok with that defeat considering the circumstances. We were super for 75 minutes and 3-0 was a harsh final result.

The likes of Bridge and and Barry need to go but De Jong, Richards, Silva and Boateng were great today imo.

its a bit depressing but we can't win them all i guess. let's regroup and focus on wolves, at least all our injured players are coming back. we'll be full strength soon enough. COME ON CITY!!!

lol my bad im half asleep...

Yeah i agree with "nool" but i just think with 10 men especially late on they had run themselves ragged. I saw a thread on the referee and didnt think it would matter much but in my opinion it was boyata's first challenge and he wasnt directly on goal. The ref didnt have to ruin the game so early.

We were fucked after 4 minutes. We did well to stay in it so long until Bridge handed them the game with something that can only be described as totally amateur. Barry was dreadful as well. At fault for the first. Yaya didnt look fit.
We need a better plan when going down to 10 men. We never really looked like threatening their back 4 which is disappointing because they're pretty dodgy at the back.

Enjoyed the game, really pleased with the effort of the lads today, they gave it everything they could, the scoreline really flattered arsenal. If we hadn't had Boyata sent off i'm certain we would have had arsenal today.

Also David Silva is an absolute star, probably my favourite player to watch in all my years watching city. A truly unbelievable talent.

Poor decison by Bobby to play Boyata. The lad has shown a lot of promise but we didn't need to risk him today. Hindsight is great but Chamakh has won five penalties this season already, he plays for fouls and looks to nick the ball away from defenders, and i was fearful before the game that he'd expose Boyata.

We played well in the circumstanes.
