The worst thing is, City have been nowhere near at their best today, they haven't had to be.

Doesn't look like Lansbury brought any instructions on with him.

Says it all for the lack of quality in our squad that we are giving him minutes at this level.

Grealish won’t stay here if we drop again. I’m not fickle but if it ain’t the manager do we look at the training staff? What do they do at Bodymoor to train?

Arguably they didn’t even play their best player in Sterling. Probably a mercy rule move given he’s have been up against Taylor.

Smith will come out and say ''there is a gulf in class'' blah, blah, blah. Yes, we know that, but what about pride? What about the fitness of these fuckwits, what about you being out of your league?

He needs to go.

West Ham actually lost 5-0 at home to Man. City on the first day. They actually followed that up with their best run of the season, went six unbeaten in the league although they've reverted back to awful since.

We do seem to wallow in heavy defeats for weeks on end, has been like that since the Lambert era.

It’s a shit day but let’s not get miserable about how we will react to it

To be fair I can move on from today provided we do the business against Brighton, Watford and Bournemouth. The players and coaching staff owe us that after today.

Yes. This will make him go back to 4 3 3 and he'll feel he has to play drinkwater to prove a point. Booo.

There is a gulf in class between Southampton and Leicester. It showed in the 9-0. And yet somehow with no new players they went to Leicester and won yesterday. That is top fucking quality coaching.

Pitcarch needs to follow, if there are any sackings, and there won't be.
