We used to be the masters at pressing now I don’t know where out pressing has gone.

Games not over but playing with the completely wrong mentality. It’s clear that this team struggles with a high intensity press. So what do we do? Sit and let them run at us.

Well looks like we’re paying for what Liverpool and ManU did to them. Shocking performance so far.This could get humiliating.... well
More humiliating.

I'm going to let Hugo off that one. He's meant to come rushing out of the goal as a sweeper keeper. sterling beats most players in a sprint to the ball.

Not a penalty but City deserve their 2-0 lead. We are playing poorly but to be fair to the lads Poch has set them up badly. We have limited pace, are being seriously over run in midfield and didn't make the necessary tactical change to 4-3-3 within the first 5 minutes when it was clear our tactical set up wasn't sufficient.

As the cliché goes, goals change games but if we don't score the next one then we could be in for a hammering today.
