One positive at least Man City wont be chasing Neves in the summer now lol

Apparently they want that Matheus Nunes

I think that once you start accepting that a team should beat you by 5 (which should’ve been 10) that’s a serious problem, and indicative of far wider issues at the club.

Not when it's man city.

"Interesting" is not the word many of us would choose.....

True. Many are yet again looking at the ref for our performance being start it was. Just look at but closer to home....

I don't think they are. It's tough enough playing Man City but then factor in the dire performance of that **** ref and you have no chance. It's like playing against 12 men. He gave us nothing and missed 2 pens and numerous fouls.
Absolute dog **** performance from the official.

another 2 fun facts from the game;
we had 43% of our shots on target,Man.C. only 33%
Sa didn`t make a save,

City have just beaten on of the form teams in the prem 5-1 before playing us. Their champions league exit has lit a fire under them. We caught them at a bad time.

They weren't two pens though.

And they caught us at a very good time!

If you can't accept being beaten by 4, then best support a Big Club like Bayern or Liverpool. And even they get beaten by 4 every few years! It's a fact of footballing life. Some you win, some you lose. Only a handful of clubs win anything. Its' as far from a level playing field as you can get.

I don't think anybody is saying they "should" beat us by 5 - but that we accept that if we are going to lose 5-1 to anyone, City are that team. Not Burnley or West Ham, for example.

We were beating City 2 seasons ago…

When De Bruyne was either absent or far from full fit. And they had 10 men for most the match. And we had Jota and a pre-injury Raul.

Yes - the key word in my statement is ‘should’. Look at the West Ham the week after.

Losing is one thing but a calm acceptance of being violated is a small club mentality.

I also want my club to be a top 4 team one day, and I could suggest that you go and support a bottom 4 team where your acceptance of such humiliation is more fitting

Obviously City are great - but the manner of the defeat should still burn!

Do you not consider that the management, motivation of the team and the unity of the club may also have played a part?

We also could have had a form Adana for this game for all we know.

Accepting being trounced is not aspirational.

I must have dreamt that his save pushed the ball out to the scorer for their second goal then....
