**** off Navas.. Appalling player.

For the money spent, city have a pretty **** team.

Pellegrini just played the wrong team. A winger with one league goal in a year and two defensive midfielders who don't get beyond the halfway line.. So silva getting no service, which means aguero gets no service. Kompany has been shocking. It's all wrong today for city.

For the money spent, city have a pretty **** team.

Without Toure they have nothing in midfield, Fernando, Fernandiho and even Milner when used there are all so bland it hurts to watch.

Spent over £200m on strikers but for me they're crying out for a Pogba.

Credit to Arsenal though they've shown how important a system can be if the players follow it through, Ramsey and Cazorla don't scream solidity but they've been very good.

Zabaleta is a quality fullback

**** off Navas.. Appalling player.

You do realise Navas has the most assists for City in the league this season?

I'd take very few of their players that started today.

They're fine when they have Yaya Toure as he can drive forward and supports attack and defence. Take him out and they don't link play enough. Yaya is like Henderson is for us, links the attack and defence. When you don't have a player like that, others come deep as they get starved of the ball.

Poor game today and wasted numerous crosses from excellent positions.

[DannyMan2006]

Thank god we hung on against Villa though when under the cosh. A draw would not have been good enough.

Not the point though is it - he had a bad game along with numerous others however he creates goals for City on the whole.

To call him appalling is quite frankly wrong.
