For once I'm glad it's the international break coming up.

Alonso should have fired that ball across as soon as he got the ball under control. No idea what he was doing turning back.

Not even a mention from the pundits about what is clearly a red card challenge? High, studs up and off the ground. Strange. 

Conte got it wrong today after Morata came off. Playing with a false 9 made it seem like we had 10 men

O I think I know why.

If that was Cahill.... certain red

How were Conte's tactics bad exactly? What do you guys propose we do? Do we play with 2 in the middle against a City side we can barely even defend against with 3 in the middle? Have people even been watching City play this season, they're steamrolling teams, completely outplaying them. If we can't shut down their attack we have a tiny tiny tiny chance of winning. 

Play a bit, get in their faces and show our qualities going forward instead of letting them dictate play.

We need some like Alexis Sanchez in. Willian and Cesc are finished 

Game over. Awful performance. City light years ahead of us. Criminal performance. European game or not, there's absolutey no excuse for that performance.

De Bryune might be the best player in the PL after all 

Just like against Athletico the better team won. That was terrible to watch.. In Mourinhos words  "Today we lacked Balls"

Our defenders have been good today. 1 moment of class from KdB was the difference

hahahahahahahaahah

Well 

I'm not going to criticize our guys.

City were the better team today.

Bakayoko, Ruddiger...welcome to the premier league guys.  Best league in the world.

You see your GK running up for a corner and you take it short? FFS how stupid is that? If the ball is nicked off you, that's an open goal!

I never mind losing providing we've put in a performance..........sadly not today.  We have been poor from the back 3 forwards, overrun in midfield and totally lost everything offensively once Morata departed. City were not given a game today and I doubt their back 4 will ever have an easier day.   Conte probably gave them too much respect and chose a defensive lineup hoping to nick one...sometimes they pay off ...sometimes not..especially today. 

Hopefully we can pick ourselves up after the break....

With a bit of luck we could've drawn but have no complaints. Oh well

Absolutely terrible performance. City really should have won by more

Same old, if that was Cahill or Luiz it would be a f**king witchhunt.

Clearly Conte didn't expect the players to be so sloppy, neither did we. The gameplan was right, I would've died if I saw a 2 man midfield against City with 3 at the back, they're lethal, we have to shut them down. You can't say we are too fatigued then somehow hope to outplay them.

We deserved to lose...we lost

Not much to say. We looked disjointed and tired. City passed us out of the game.

Christensen laughs at that notion.

I mean city were seriously good there...best I've ever seen them.
