Nothing not one of us didn't expect .move on 

Yep. This game didn’t change anything. We did ok in the first half with a terrible starting XI against a superior team who would beat us blind-folded. Actually looking forward to the Manure game.

Just watched Sky’s highlights……First goal, Rule number one, never duck out of the way of a header inside the 6 yard box. Second goal is just poor defensive midfield play, any competent defensive midfielder (of which we’ve not had one for yonks), would have tracked and blocked the run leading to the shot……Third and fourth goals are just terrible full back play with not tracking the runner….however don’t blame Richie and Murphy too much as they are not natural full backs…….All the goals were poor, defensively, but City just coast through our midfield, so in the January window, there is a desperate need for proper Midfield players, with plenty of energy and the ability to protect the back 4 (We need 3 of them)…Play Schar ,Manquillo, Fernandez and Drummet/Lewis….provide them with some midfield protection, add another CF and then cross fingers.

Wasn't an absolutely terrible performance tbh but you can't defend a 0-4 home defeat to any team. How we weren't given a pen was a fucking disgrace, but the one against us at Leicester was. Utter fucking joke.

 

Team just isn't good enough. We have to stay within 6 points by the time the window comes round to attract the players we desperately need.

Was a weird game. 4-0 felt a bit flattering to City but you could also tell they were a class above at the same time.

 

A truly obvious difference between the sides was composure. We actually built really decent positions on 5/6 occasions but just seemed to always pick the worst option when in their box.

Raging. Felt we done alright 1st half but shitty luck and useless defense mishaps cost us. The penalty shout is borderline obscene. Did it actually go to VAR? If not then why not? If so then the most blatant penalty on record. Commentators, who usually hate us, screamed penalty. Pundits at half time did too but quickly glossed over it. All feels like a fix up after the previous games.

"Cancelo was in possession of the ball" is the nonsensical party line.

So then it's ok to foul any player inside the box who doesn't have possession of the ball?

 

Never heard or seen that before...!!!

 

Penaltys are often given when a corner comes in and a player hold/drag another player even though he's never gonna get the ball.

What's the difference???

 

...and why don't they even VAR-check this situation?

VAR did check it, that's the reason they gave for not awarding it.

Anyone else see the poor fella flat on his back with his shirt off outside the club shop near the Strawberry, with a load of paramedics doing chest compressions on him? Didn't look good at all ?

 

Seems like he didn't make it. ?
