Major league disappointed in us being hammered despite them having 10 men for over an hour, yet satisfied with the result. This is in the knowledge that Koeman clearly desperately feels like the squad requires two more players and we're very much a work in progress. Missing Coleman, Bolasie and Sandro who'd definitely have given City something to think about today, and should have a very good striker brought in before end of transfer window. Thought Jagielka and Williams were rock solid today, fair play to the pair of them, and Keane was calm and strong too. The team needs to gel, and it's going to be even harder with Koeman having to chop and change as he is forced to at the minute as he doesn't have all of the players in that he wants yet. It feels like a defeat because we held out so long, and it is disappointing because even though I knew we'd concede due to all of that pressure, a part of me was watching the clock hoping we'd hold out. But never mind, a good point with nowhere near our strongest eleven out there and hopefully qualification to the Europa League to come and then another dogged performance against the champions on Sunday. Onwards and upwards.
