Judging by some of the opinions, 9

I’m glad you’re delighted with having your tummy tickled like this. I think it’s embarrassing.

Yeah. Did you expect us to score 8 goals? Look how many city play. That's why they're champions. A lower team get in there half and they just bring the players down. 

If this performance is what you expected then you've a pretty low bar.

It doesn't matter who you're playing, zero shots and zero touches in your opponents box is woeful.

Seem to have learnt nothing from last time. How many more times do we have to get promoted before strengthening the obvious weaknesses.

Why are you taking the argument to the absolute extreme? 

Dan is asking is you think we could play marginally better, like y'know maybe having one touch in the opposition box, or having a shot on target? More than 1 corner, no?

Who is saying anything about scoring 8 goals FFS. 

Did you know you can lose a game and still give a decent account of yourselves?

Take the 0-3 against Liverpool last week, plenty of positives from that game. 

What are the positives from this one? 

Is it too much to ask for there to be even be ONE single positive from this game?

Yep... we are so small and frail.

Like pixies blown about by a mild breeze.

The Prem is the land of giants and we're on the menu.

One thing is clear, nevermind Liverpool and Man City, we will need to up our game significantly if we have any hope of staying in this league.

We look like wer'e out for a leisurely afternoon stroll.

4 goal margin against Liverpool???

Sorry, I meant 3 goal margin of defeat. i.e. 4-1 loss in 2019, 3-0 loss last week.

Then you need a sense of perspective.

I wonder what Man City's wage bill is in comparison to ours? 8x?

The distressing issue is not the results but the clear lack of improvement in the team and tactics since the last run out in this league, its men against boys, it appears Farke has learnt nothing from his last go in this league , teams only need to press high against us as we are unable to do anything, We are are one trick pony

A midfield that hasn't really played together but yeah we expect 70 pcent possession. Some of you 🙈😬

Thats being silly. That is a knee jerk reaction to posts. Our midfield starting has played one more game than theirs this season.

Of course we were only going to get 30-40% possession. But we have wasted what possession we have had.

Disappointing no shots, let alone none on target. Why are we 4-0, 75 mins and aren't tying to blood Sargent & Tzolis in

Really? You actually believe that?

Yes, Man City will win a few games by 4 or more at home.

But I doubt they'll get another match all season where an opponent doesn't even touch the ball in their box for 77 minutes.

77 minutes.

Oh look, bring on a strong, fit, striker and you get somewhere.

Just imagine him from the start with a number ten behind. 

And cantwell on the left.

Man City have made one signing this summer.

I suspect they've played a few more games together

Plan a was keep Skipp- that failed and I smell no plan B…going into this season with no cdm was suicidal. Looking at loans of undeveloped kids when we were out muscled last time looks naive

On another note wes has made Cambridges 2nd goal, his left wing cross made someone score an own goal

He is past his best, looks completely unfit and should of been taken off at HT last week, let alone be starting today. Sargent has done more in 2 minutes than he did the past 2 poxy games!

Muppets? 

You mean people with brains linked to their eyes?

If you can't see pukki is past it then you're unfortunately not watching the right sport.

Your frustration is becoming apparent. Pretty silly replies.
