The Prophet Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 55 minutes ago, Stifler said: He does, but the argument that I have always said is that we turn up against the bigger teams and go missing against the weaker teams. I’m not convinced we’ll put in a good enough performance against Everton next weekend. Until this season, we've actually been exceptional v weaker teams. It's the likes of Everton, Fulham and Brentford we've struggled against. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Good effort, good performance Fine margins and we had some poorer individual moments than they did I’d say (to be expected), the kind of game we easily take a point from on another day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouldy_uk Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Crazy run of away fixtures done (7 out of last 8). Let’s get some players rested on Tuesday and see if we can start clawing our way back up the prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBottle Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 More green shoots today. Good performance at a nightmare ground, look a lot better - shame about the result, but can’t be many complaints about the set up or effort levels. We were the better side here.

Pilko Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Four away games in a row, three wins and our best performance at the Etihad in 10-15 years. Bit unfortunate today, just let down by Pope being totally shit on the first goal and a ridiculous ref who just gave City every little thing all day long.

Optimistic Nut Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) Can't fault that. Gave it a bash, we just don't have the ability to beat these sides at the moment though. No complaints and seen enough to think if we stick with this we might nick a minor European slot. Edited February 21 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoSelecta Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Imagine we signed a RB & semenyo in January and they weren’t allowed to sign anyone. The bloke is going toe to toe with the best in the business with one arm tied behind his back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Hasn't got the tools to do much more than that tonight. Given the standard of some of them its an over delivery if anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Pretty sure everyone would have taken 3 wins from the 4 away games. Now the run up to Arsenal gives us 7 league games that all winnable, if not easy and an on paper gimme in the champs league. Progress through one of the CL and FA cup would be nice.

SteV Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) 4 minutes ago, TheBrownBottle said: Pre- or post-match? What was said? Post-match. Edwards asked Howe about did he know the rule around the push for the Burn goal and would they be seeking clarification on it. Howe said something like “no I didn’t so you taught me something there”. Edwards then made a jokey quip saying “not for the first time”, which didn’t really land with Howe or anyone else, and that was that.
