So much for this poor defensive discipline.
And yet, last season, we were regularly used by pundits to show brilliant defensive shape...not this season.
Does that not tell you something?
OK, so we haven't conceded many league goals, but who have we played?

City 5-0 Burnley, 20% possession and 0 shots on goal.
Holy ****, I was right about 0 shots and goal and 5-0. KRBFC knows best

There was no hope today, we are so bad right now we'd have lost against 9 City players.

So you think other teams outside of the top six are going to have any chance against them at the Etihad?

Absolutely not, best team in the country by a mile imo but other teams outside the top 6 have put up more of a fight, 2-1 Newcastle, 2-0 Brighton, 3-0 Fulham, 5-0 us. It's funny how you constantly make excuses when before the game you were the one arguing with another poster who correctly predicted a drubbing, your words were.....
''What makes you think we'll lose heavily when a team like Brighton, that have only won 2 out of their last 23 away from home only lost 2-0?''

You do realise it was Manchester City we were playing today?
Not Exeter City?

I didn't think we would and I suspect it was because we lost our discipline from the second goal onwards. As for those other teams, apart from Brighton we are they below us then?
They way you go on you'd think we were the worse team to ever play in the Premier league. You must have been one of the few who thought we were rubbish last season!
