I’d celebrate a 1-0 defeat down there like it was a victory. Always get fucked

5-0 is proper harsh.

No it’s not. Their 5 goals were well deserved. Now we could have had 2 or maybe 3 if we’d taken chances but we were chasing shadows all afternoon.

 

It is what it is. They are the best team in the league.

[Nine]

Bit of a wake up call for some of our fans hopefully, we have a long way to go

[Awaymag]

Remember how you feel now and the next time some wanker in future says you bought your way to whatever, just smile and say it's better to be shitting on than being shat on.

[SUPERTOON]

Lascelles and Longstaff really have no right to have long term futures here.

[Pixelphish]

Oh well. 

[Jordan]

Just seen Longstaff walking off pitch. Did he play?

[Dokko]

Christ, just seen the score.

Really hope he isn't getting a new contract as rumoured

[Dr Venkman]

Vintage.

[LionOfGosforth]

9-0 over two games. The gap is galaxy big. 

[Decky]

It wouldn't surprise me if the Etihad was empty like that when they're lifting the league title. Joke of a club. 

[Mattoon]

Properly not worth pawing over that, not really the benchmark to rate a season, they've spent more on 1 player than we have on 80% of the squad. Only conclusion that needs to be made is that we're an absolute mile away from top 4.

Longstaff was woeful in this match 

 

When was he good in a match? I don't think I have seen him have a good game in years

I'm out of gravy, might have to wear my pre-stained t-shirt to maintain the look.

Yeah we didn't deserve a 5-0 lose, although it's not an unexpected result, they're just ruthless and full of world class players. Would should have scored 2/3 goals in that game.

 

We looked so much better when Wilson and Trippier came on, they need to start next week.

[Kid Icarus]

Meh, predicted 5-0, got 5-0. Beaten by the death of 1000 incredibly boring cuts by one of the best teams in Europe and met with mild applause. Would have liked us to have taken a couple of our chances, but we're still in a different league. Showcased by Targett who usually handles everyone no bother, but came up short today.

 

Hopefully Liverpool win the league, Man City are incredibly boring to watch despite the likes of Foden and KDB being outstanding individual talents 

[Conjo]

Don't care about the result. Didn't look like the team gave up despite the two late goals.

 

Just glad to see Trippier and Wilson back. Hopefully they can make a difference against Arsenal and Burnley. Game was all ready over when they came on today.

The only reason it will happen is for the home grown numbers.

[tgarve]

Longstaff shocking today mind

[Shearergol]

They’re ace, we’re shit. Hard to take any more from it. At least we don’t have Bruce to listen to now.

 

people expecting top 5 next season

Do they? Us, Leeds and Watford basically.

Bearing in mind it was 4 when I typed that, just been on their results page and stopped counting at 6 result’s where they got at least 4.

We havent beat a top 6/7 team so yeah the gap is huge

[Big Geordie]

As others have said, there is much work that lies ahead. I had been one for a kind of gradual revolution, but we need some big signings in the summer, with many of the present lot to be shown the door.

[Yorkie]

Think it's pretty likely we finish the season with four defeats on the bounce. Season is over and they're goosed after a pretty phenomenal effort to get themselves safe. Will be a bit of a damp squib though, hopefully there's no more batterings.
