A decent point. No-one expected to blow City away (honestly) so I think that was a fair result. Penalty was perhaps wrong but could see why it was given. I think a few of our players definitely need a break though.

Virgil and Lovren were excellent even though Virgil gave away and pen and Lovren was lucky not to give away a pen, Gini quality again in middle. I hate Gomez at right back, brilliant this season at cb but struggles massively at right back.
Front 3 having a mare, Mane to a lesser extent. Bobby and Mo pretty terrible. Early days but imo Keita has been terrible. Just looks absolutely lost out there at minute, so slow with and without ball I'm a bit shocked at just how slow he looks.
Thinks it's time for Sturridge and Shaqiri to get some more minutes. How the flying **** was Fernandinho not sent off?

Decent point but quite a disappointing performance, slow in possession and sloppy far too often. The front 3 had another off day and that's 2 games now where we have created pretty much nothing.
Hopefully we can start putting some of the 'easier' teams to bed and get some momentum back because it's gone a little flat right now.Vive la France

It was a penalty, and the other was a reasonable claim, but we defended pretty well. Lovren in particular.Originally posted by Tatterdemalion View PostA decent point.

Originally posted by Kenneth View PostDecent result but a very reserved and maybe negative performance. Lucky with the pen, front 3 still looking off form, need to get going next match to keep the pressure on the others if we're genuinely going to challenge this season.
The good news is we know we can get a lot better. Difficult run of games, and other than Napoli away we've negotiated them reasonably well. Stilll in contention.
Reckon we lack a bit of guile (wee judas Phil), so if we are to sign anyone in Jan it has to be that time.Modifying post.

One small gripe is our players look knackered - I wish he rotated at Napoli and kept some of the midfield fresh. They were on top there.
city were as **** as us and imo both teams were tired. Still though some worrying performers for us again.

A point is no bad thing. We didn't look very cohesive going forwards. Neville was right about playing the front 3 away to ****ing napoli. We lost it wasn't the right thing to do. A lot of our passing is behind the player, it's one thing going backwards and sideways but at least put it in front of the player so he can attack the ball. Got away at the end. Lovren apart from the weird attempt first half was very good.
Why no shaq?
Our squad still isn't that impressive. Drop from first team is massive. Fekir should have been signed. Or someone of similar quality.
Win the next and get some momentum going again.Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won’t expect it back. Oscar Wilde

And Spurs away. Another probable top 4.Originally posted by Buzzo View PostSurprisingly **** game. But - joint top after away at Chelsea and home v City.
Got to be happy with that.
And we haven't hit anywhere near top gear._____________________________________

Fortunately we have two of the easiest coming up in Huddersfield and Cardiff.Originally posted by Rich View PostDecent enough - bit leggy. Fantastic in defence bar the penalty.
Front three all struggling and Keita is really struggling to get up to speed.
We could do with a couple of easier games to get into a flow again.Trey Nyoni: countdown to stardom-2 years1year0.5 years
