I think bringing Samatta off was the wrong call, unless he was injured.  Would love to have seen him and Davis upfront.  Conor did okay when he came on but Trez was a bit disappointing.  Elmo justified his inclusion, as did Nyland.

Micah Richards, born in Birmingham, raised in Leeds but professional City fan. I wish he’d fucking shut up.


I suppose he's getting paid to talk. Even he can't fuck that up and disappear into a basement somewhere for 2 years.

Sky have barely acknowledged that we were in that game to the very end.

Football has been wank since about 2006.

It was never a corner, obvs. I feared after going 2-0 down they’d embarrass us like they did to Watford in the FA Cup final last year. Good to see we showed some fight - and a nice goal - but in the end we just didn’t quite have enough. Money.

Better than i expected, but i was completely devoid of any hope beforehand. Now, please improve in the league.

As we've all said many times, Trezegeut is a headless chicken. When he gets rushed into a decision he looks hopeless. He had that one moment in space when we had a good attack going, and he looked like a toddler trying to escape with the black and decker power drill you told them not to go near. Trezegeut probably walks into his door frame at least 10 times a day at home.

Pity we can't spend hundreds of millions on players (we have super wealthy owners) like Citeh did 10 years ago. And still they cheat and get banned from the Champions League for 2 years!
Still well done today boys!
Hope Jack is ok? Be typical of our luck to get SJM back and Jack is out! Tom Heaton suggested it maybe cramp from putting a shift in?

Could have been a lot worse and I guess many of us were suspecting it might be.
We need to stay up , spend money and improve the team.
It was damage limitation at times and although we put in a shift at the beginning and towards the end, I am not broken harted as I have been after other losses.
come on, I think Dean gave the message in the huddle at the end keep this fight going.

Indeed.  What a wanker.  Self-appointed City legend.  Do me a favour.

We can take heart from the game and display. Beaten by a corner that never should of been given.

Really really hope Grealish isn’t injured just cramp! He was gone after 70 mins should he have come off?

We have to hope McGinn is back soon which will give us a huge lift!

Players tried today esp second half that has to be the standard now

Up the Villa

Discussing our marking at corners. Mings is in the wrong role there. simple as that.
