Is this the first time we have been up against City without either Wood or Barnes in recent times ?

We’re likely to get thumped here, so let’s just accept that as a likely outcome now and anything better than that, is a bonus.

Hopefully with that expectation, we can leave some of the strong criticisms from the Chelsea game in the past. As long as we put a proper shift in, I’ll take what comes on the chin tonight.

If it's 0-0 after 20 minutes I think there should be a minutes applause for us!

Pretty weak from Lowton - not convinced Pop had much of any time to react to that.

I’d sub Mee, Tarkowski and McNeil already now.

You can say I’m taking the **** etc, I’m deadly serious. I wouldn’t have even started them to be honest. We have battles ahead that we have a chance in.

Should have played Barnsley at RB, he might have stopped the cross. Should have gone three in midfield. Defence was awful there.

Same tactics same result. You can't play 4-4-2 against City - it never works.
