Enrique's cross taken by Hart

[Mattshark]

be nice if someone gave it a go and whipped a ball into the box - go on lads give it a try

Maybe we could try something other than just crosses.

[BobTheCharmer]

another cross floated in. lads training required.

[Nicey]

Was said before today that a defeat tonight, given the other recent results, would still leave us in decent shape. Just the manner of it has been a letdown, we've had nothing going forward and stupid mistakes are hard to take.

The damage to the GD and confidence wont help either.

And i dunno where you got 17 games from, we lost at Fulham 7 games ago.

Details details

its all the pointing at each other thats pissing me off...someone needs to take control!

Enrique crosses, cleared and City break

[Leyton388]

No attacking know how what so ever tonight. We really need a playmaker and goal poucher.

Yaya Toure and Vincent Kompany have been excellent throughout.

Downing is such a waste of space. Never liked him but wanted to give him a chance. Total let down

[RichC]

What annoys me the most about Downing is his lack of wanting to take responsibility for creating chances he's always looking to give it to someone else to deliver the final ball, ****ing annoying.

Think we have some of the best stats for crosses in the Prem, it's the quality of the crosses that's letting us down, or not having men in the box when a dangerous cross comes in.

Something needs working out, and if we can do that we're in a healthy position, depending on what other teams do or spend in Jan obviously.

Maxi unlucky

[sean_lfc]

Oh Maxi!!! What a clever ****in footballer!

[RichC]

Maybe we could try something other than just crosses.

We're playing Carroll up front rightly or wrongly - if he plays we need to put crosses in - I'd like to see something else but options are limited with no Suarez

Precisely. He doesnt want to step up, prefers to just play a little layoff instead, always takes the easy option. Major letdown, dreadful signing.
