I know what you mean. It’s the optics/context for me atm. We’ve stumbled at the first proper hurdle since United not long after Liverpool gift City 3 points… I think I still have reservations about the mentality of this squad, deffo not the talent.

City came here and ground out a 1-0 win. Standards not good enough tonight.

6-12 months ago he’d have waited until 70-75 mins. Eze can’t complain

Gyok has done well holding the ball up so far, control seems better

Could this be lose three points now to lose less later?…if we carried on I could see a few more draws whereas the manner of this should drive a change up front and fire in the bellies.
Rose tinted glasses I know!

When things start to unravel, Bovino will be one of the first they sacrifice and throw under the bus.

Since the game ended, I have listened to 2 fairly balanced instant reaction pods, been to the gym to work some anger out and I still feel a large dose of rage thinking about that 90 mins

I don’t think any of us care about the goal quality. We’ve had plenty of opportunity in the last few games to allow for a loss like this and we haven’t.

Hope he gets through it, want him to succeed. Just can’t see him getting much of a run in midfield with the strength we’ve got there!

Loved MLS from last year but he’s so off the pace every time he comes on against anyone decent.
Not sure if this a young player having those peaks and troughs as they develop or more of a Zinny situation?

Looks to me like he’s buying time to navigate this. We are not currently part of the EU which means we have to play a slightly different kind of game - as much as I’d love him to tell trump to stop being a massive cunt I don’t know what else that achieves apart from making us all smile.

Arteta once said he wishes he’d had the minerals to sub a keeper in a match, needs to back this up and make the right choice for the second leg.

We move - an off performance in a congested period where we’ve put more distance between us and 2nd/3rd.
We deserved at least a point based off xG and that’s what we got. How many games have we rued in seasons past when we didn’t at least get the result the performance deserved?
