A lot of overreactions in here. It’s as if some of you have never seen an away game against Burnley before.

Just one of those nights I’m afraid. If someone had offered me three points from City and Burnley away on Friday morning I’d have snatched your hand off.

We will batter Leeds on the weekend.

We talk about the the bad old days but we at least won things occasionally but this is now just a desert of nothingness.

Over and over again it happens, that great win at City is almost worthless now. ??

It’s simply not good enough. We have major weaknesses but we are better than these performances. Can’t excuse them just because ‘we’re building’
Well you absolutely can because it’s the same group of players more of less.

Bentancur went off at HT and our midfield control fell apart.

We also missed a few good chances.

Burnley also just beat Brighton away 3-0. It’s just the way the PL is right now anyone can beat anyone.

We don’t have the quality it to dominate games yet and we ARE still building.

When was the last time we lost 4 out of 5 games in the league? Horrendous run at the wrong time.

6 defeats in 10 games. Wow.

Take Kane out of this squad and we are utterly fucked.

Forget any rebuild. He goes and we are properly midtable.

Starting to wonder where we go, surely Conte needs to be doing better than this. It’s not good enough.

Could've put money on this happening the moment Kane scored the winner at City.

Utterly predictable.

Completely agree mate.
And shock loads of overreacting in the match thread ? ?

Very chilled out about this to be honest. It's like that North American guy who used to do the painting on TV in the 70s, Bob Ross, The Happy Painter. Stood there putting brown blobs on the canvas and you're thinking, what the fuck, that don't look like a tree.

You turn around for a second, all of a sudden you're picking out the nuances of the bark. Little snow capped branches, the lot.

Basically, waiting for next season. For now, just looking at the canvas.

I agree. This will be a bigger and more meaningful test than Citeh. For all Citeh's quality, they played a style and set up that's well-matched to our strengths. Burnley will test our new boys in a very different way. I expect another game where a team with lower quality players plays better football than us, only to come up short because they are clinical enough in the box, while we hang on by fingertips, hoping for a moment of brilliance from our best players to bail us out.
OK, I got that very wrong. They weren’t let down by a lack of clinical finishing, and we didn’t produce any moments of individual brilliance. Bite me.

Conte was praised for how fast he changed a vad tactic at Chelsea, how is it that he keeps playing 3-4 -3 with shit wingbacks and not nearly good enough midfield, we get pressed and chocked al lthe time, only reason we win against city is because we play very defensively and counter. i have questioned this foramtion for so many games, but seriously why is he so adamant on playing it when we clearly suck at it???
