Blueeeee moon.

Overall it's not a bad performance, but there just isn't any attacking threat at all from the front three.

It only looks a decent performance because of who the opposition is. It is the same performance we have been putting in since Liverpool. We are losing yet again because of our weakness has not been rectified. Still not a very good performance.

Should be ! Three outstanding forwards !

So disappointing, but that IX put up more fight than any team we’ve put out in months.

We've only put out 9? That's where we've been going wrong then.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

City are a small team apart from the defenders and they score from set piece, Deeney and the big Watford players must be rubbing their hands.

Hopefully if tonight isn't the final straw then the weekend will be. Hopefully Deeney gets a few.

Theo Walcott is an absolute fraud of a footballer and has been for years. In 1 year of being at the club il be amazed if he’s had more than 3 performances above 7/10

It’s like playing with 10 men everytime he’s on the pitch

derek rae is a knobhead

I honestly don't get how we're so bad at them.

What the hell is Zouma - who has been our best player - doing? Honestly.

Three in midfield looks better , Walcott rubbish - DCL on his own a good effort by the rest then the dreaded set piece

Definitely the way forward

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Game after game this. Genuinely pathetic.

Pathetic from Gueye too.

And what's all the more frustrating is other than on set piece defending we didn't look all that terrible

 

[Kev The Rat]

Need city to score a few more tbh. Get the max possible benefits from this.

 

[eurosrees]

I think I might prefer seeing Klopp angry than seeing this lot of chumps happy anyway, what a character.

 

[Mashtray]

Terrible goal to concede - both in the manner and timing. They'll come out in the second half a bit more relaxed now.. we'd been trying to exploit their 'antsy'-ness and now we've just handed them a reprieve.

In a normal world I'd say go for it, its the same losing 1-0 and 5-0, but if you want anything from this game you have to play the same way and hit counters. Because going for it here will actually cause more harm

 

[banno]

Predictable BUT we had a good half, happy enough with that compared to the last few games.

I don't see how we have had a good half....is it because the score is not 0-3

The more replays you see the worse it gets. Free header, completely free. Time and time again.
