Mason (Levy) killed us with the Bale sub. Had to put in Sissoko at the same time because he know Bale can't run.

And why Alli??

I had zero expectations for this game so hardly a shock and I'm not sure why so many fans are seemingly surprised about the pattern of the game and that we had to do so much defending and cling on for dear life.

We can have no complaints as we rode our luck throughout, but lets be honest the double substitution was absolutely fucking disastrous in extinguishing any glimmers of a performance/play we'd started to put together in the second half. Sorry Ryan, but those subs were fucking bananas.

We are such a bunch of bottle jobs, who can we say turned up and put in a performance? Maybe Toby and Hugo

Kane tried his best, but he has to be everywhere and unfortunately can’t pass to himself.

Agree though that apart from Toby, Hugo and Kane we were crap. Just waited to get beaten.

Finishing the match with Winks and Sissoko in the midfield is just the final piss take on the whole sorry mess of a season.

Based on that performance I’d sell Son in the summer whilst he still has high value.
What is he fucking crying for? We should be crying due to his total lack of effort. He was scared shit of Walker all day and bottled the 50/50 with Gundogan and just shrugged his shoulders!

What I found funny is that Man City attacked until the last second. Even they knew there isn't a chance in hell of us scoring so they didn't need to play it into the corner or pass it around. Absolutely joke.

Man City were too good, they didnt let us have a sniff, there pressing and fitness levels are insane. We did well to stay in the game for a long time.

Tough summer ahead for levy because central midfield is not good enough technically, lots of effort but little quality. Need to upgrade right back option too.

its the fucking midfield, week in, week out. Im not sure Id build it around any of the guys we have. Lo Celso is the only one I can see maybe fitting in down the road.
