  • A poor first half by most today, we lost most of the 50/50s, were too static and passed poorly. Once we got a goal and City needed to push forward, it was a different story. For me Mykolenko was man of the match. Defensively he was awesome and a delicious ball to play Beto in. Iboegbunam's tacking was excellent and got the fans fired up, it's a shame he can't use it to start a counter though. Ndiaye could have had a hat trick today, poor finishing cost us. A great second half by Rohl, especially going forward. No heroics from Pickford today, flapped at every cross and no way near stopping any of the goals. Tarkowski and Keane did ok, except for being asleep for Haaland's goal. Can Dibling's star fade any further? A guy who can't get picked in his own position, is chosen ahead of him, in his position. Michael, you're starting to sound like Murray Walker, your dislike of Moyes is almost comic. If you want to be taken seriously, you might want to dial it back a bit....

  • Glad to see there\'s not too much Moyes bashing in these comments [unlike the live forum with the usual suspects, yawn, how short are people\'s memories?]rn rnWe went up against the previous champions vying for the league title, a side we\'d not beaten for a decade and only just got two draws, with a squad many times our value...and more than held our own.rnDefensively solid for most of the first half, and then showed real threat on the break, to the point where we could\'ve scored 4 or 5 had NDiaye\'s finishing been sharper, AND should\'ve had at least one penalty.rnrnYes, when 3:1 up with less than 10 minutes to play we should really have gone onto win, and it is disappointing to take just a single point, but with most of our European vying rivals also dropping points, we\'re not actually much worse off. And we\'re still very much in the hunt.rnrnIF Villa go onto win the Europa, and finish 5th, it would mean 6th place also gets a CL spot next year, with ...

  • Tarkowski switching off for City’s second goal cost us the win, the latest in a number of errors from him over the last 4 games.rnrnBut, why did Charly try to keep the ball in play when we broke forward in injury time? He headed the ball back into play when he could have sent it to the corner.rnrnWe are so naive sometimes....

  • Wow, City heading for a straightforward victory. Until they weren\'t!rnrnEverton heading for an unlikely victory, Until they weren\'t!rnrnSo much emotion from the fans in the second half and yet numb silence after the final whistle, City probably lost the title, Everton probably lost a Euro place.rnrnThat\'s four points lost in the last 3 matches with virtually the last kick of the game, frustrating....
