Not that convincing but 3 very good chances missed,2 for Aguero and 1 for Mario.Need to stay patient and keep that back door closed and we need more from Mario who is hardly involved.

i think mario's played well. his touch is VASTLY improved to what it was earlier this season.

i've liked mario's play so far, he's tracked back well and has been involved in our attacks making space and runs. Out of our strikers I think he's playing the most consistently recently.

I just cant recall a thing he has been involved with apart from that chance. Maybe the next one is buried and we win 1 nil.

Aguero needs to stick away more of his chances.

He does indeed....takes far too many touches for my liking.

I don't know what has happened him over the last while but I thought we bought a warrior and his first few games had me convinced but he looks weak and short of ideas as well lately.

Hope he makes ne eat my words 2nd half!

That Remy Gallard copycat from Arse goal decided today to be a good keeper.
Typical.

I think his all round game is fine. It's his finishing that concerns me.

aguero is making good runs and finding space, but then he slows it down and tries to take on 2-3 defenders. might work in la liga but not here.

Aguero receiving a one-two then running along their defensive line to create an opening and get a shot on goal was fucling class. He just needs to actually SCORE though.

Silva must be drinking the same Kool Aid. He was brilliant in the beginning months
of the season and seems to have tapered off..he's still great but, imo, not what he was at the
beginning of the season when he was absolutely fantastic and shredded United.
