Very bad set of results for us especially if we don’t get something later.

Unless we start winning fast other results won't matter at all.

So we're out of the play off positions at the moment with another couple of teams snapping at our heels.

Sigh.

Tonight is crucial.
Whilst other teams are finding form, and moving into gear, we are going south.

A few weeks ago Bruce told us that the season is just starting, up until then everyone was jokeying for position. Well, he was right....many other teams are well and truly getting going.

Would it be too much to ask for us to come out and take the game to a team and look as if we are capable of winning a tricky game.

It's a must win now, we need to address the momentum shift.

Jose Mourhino's clever deflection away from his sides' draw with his ludicrous '£300m is not enough' comment. He deserves the sack if anybody for that load of crap.

Was any journalist brave enough to suggest to him that £300 million should be enough to beat to Burnley at home?

To be fair to him they only lost in the last minute to big spending Bristol City and it was a last minute goal that prevented them beating big spending Leicester City.

De Bruyne is simply world class.

First half possession stats is 82% for Man City. Pep Lambert would approve of this.

De Bruyne is simply world class.

His passing is magnificent. Great vision and the execution is sublime - the weight of almost every pass is perfect, his teammates don't have to break stride, the ball just arrives, on the spot, practically gift-wrapped. It's lovely to watch.

18% possession for Newcastle. Bruce would approve of that 8)

I enjoy watching Man City, I reckon Mourinho will be having a full on Alan Partridge breakdown by the end of the season. Makes it quite enjoyable knowing how much it will be upsetting him and the not so noisy neighbours.

De Bruyne is simply world class.

He's a cracking player, he's another one alongside Mo Salah at Liverpool that Chelski bought as a youngster and didn't give them a chance. Both are in superb form right now.
