We've done well to stop shots on goal, as they've actually not created much, despite looking so menacing.

But the midfield don't quite know when to step out and press, as Foden keeps slipping into space. Lengthen the game with the long ball.

That said I've not seen a side move the ball as quickly as this.

My commentary is just horrifically biased.

Just listening to it makes me feel horrifically sick.

Great start with a decent goal, but it has been do one sided since and we have looked like a lower league side at times.

We can't compete with these Super League sides.

Former super league sides!

Be nice if one of our midfielders put a tackle in

Man City are playing very, very well.

Our midfield is making it very easy for them.

Nakamba is there to disrupt he has to be better at doing his job.

He's completely out of his depth. Offering nothing with and without the ball.

Was thinking the same about Foden, he's between the lines every time. Nakamba needs to get on him.

We all know how good man city are.
But we have to show a little bit of quality when we actually get the ball.

Our midfield set up is a mess though. Luiz left of Nakamba for some bizarre reason and too far ahead of the ball.

Something not mentioned when we scored - brilliant work by Mings for the goal. The quick-thinking, vision and pass were all top-notch.

Thats weak from the referee, seeing the Scab rolling around and making a judgment.
