    What are the black arm bands for? Anyone know? I didn't hear of anyone dying I don't think.

    Azpili doing a great job tracking back and heading passes and crosses to safety.

    Azpilicueta is masterclass so far.

    This has been one of the worst first halves of premier league football I've ever seen.

    Team doesn't know when to keep the ball or make a quick decision.

    always amazes me how we have these really long stretches without a single shot on goal

    Especially with OHM on the field. Incredible. None of them are play particularly well either. We lack width and really don't have a purpose. City have a style. Kolarov passes forward overlaps and crosses. Zabaleta hangs back, Da Silva comes central and then he overlaps. We don't even have that. Its just a bunch of guys runs about trying to make something happen but only managing over-complicating things with overly elaborate play. Pass the ball, make a run. That's how chances are created.

    We desperately need some width and players who can stretch play. Moses should be on.

    We should be looking for corners and set pieces. It's our strength and City's weakness. It's that simple yet we seem determined to complicate it.

    When things aren't quite working, you might think one of the first things you'd do to shake things up is integrate some of the new players you purchased over the summer...

    So where the F*** is Marin??

    Finally we see some football from our side. That was a well worked attack

    Hazard should not be allowed to take corners.

    Why doesn't Torres do that all the time? Just fecking shoot. So often he's so hesitant for some reason.
