[Poor language removed] manager [Poor language removed] boring other predicable football Martinez do one

We've lost 0-2 to the best side in the league. The side that will win the league.

We lost because of a goalkeeping mistake and because we had to throw a kid in at left back, who's a right back, to replace a kid who was thrown in at left back, who's a centre back, to replace the best left back in the league because he's injured.

We hit the post and had some great chances. On another day, we'd have managed the win.

Now pipe down.

Man City are a much better team, doesn't matter at all to me.

losing at goodison doesnt matter at all to you? Oh dear.

 

[MrGrumpy]

They were better all over the pitch, some of our passing was awful....shots on target????

 

[Rolo Tomassi]

Been third best all game.

 

[keverton]

Leaving 2 defensive midfielders on with minutes left is just dumbfounding. Bringing Naismith on instead of Kev or del is just confusing. That said city are very good

 

[nsno-chris]

He was the only defender we had on the bench.

Barry has played left back. They took advantage of a youngster having no positional understanding

 

[longers]

the fact they are the best team doesn't make me any less annoyed tbh

the lack of love for wingers is worrying, especially as we have 2 pretty exciting ones.

 

[USABlue]

City will be the best team we will meet this season. Howard had one miss and that was enough for City. With a bit of luck Lukaku could have had two goals in first half, so I'm not that disappointed. We played a decent game, but they where the better team

your reasonable logic has no place during the fume fest mate

 

[BluePeadar]

oh my god Deolufeu has forgotten how to play football

 

[chrissyjack]

I paid £6.99 to watch this on Now TV ffs.

* at least I can watch Real Madrid later

 

[EFC Si]

Not to worry lads these are just too good for anyone in the league atm

 

[Steak Bake]

We've deserved a goal, but Manchester City are just too good this season.

Yep them and Chelsea will be top 2 again. Anyone can finish 3rd and 4th.

 

[hktoffee]

Kone and Naismith. We don't need hardworking players. We need talent like Kev playing.

 

[streeky]

played too deep the whole game ,scared of aguero's pace, so no pressure on the man on the ball from 1st to 90th minute. Training game for city.

 

[Joey66]

One player for the blues who has played so poor today - MaCarthy poor game passing tackling non exists tante should have been subbed instead of Kone imo!
