  1. Today plus the 2nd half of Sheffield Wednesday were very poor. Cotteril as usual blaming the ref or a decision - needs to consider the real reasons we lost and have been doing all season (ie the formation, transfer window shambles, persistence with Wilbraham etc etc) Fielding - 6. OK but so slow with getting the game going when two down and distribution poor. Ayling - 4. Not a right wing back. But even when moved back he struggled. Moore - 5. Not great but harsh to be taken off when all problems came down other flank. Flint - 5. Left badly exposed for first goal and looking like he will struggle this season. Williams - 5. Played well at Preston but back to usual here. Bryan - 5. Has been struggling for a few games now and doesn't look his usual self. Freeman - 5. Disappointing how he didn't impose himself on the game. Just never really threatened. I'm hopeful he will come good but low on confidence? Smith - 6. Did OK and held the ball. Lacked options at times and was forced to go back to Fielding a few times. Pack - 5. Need a replacement in this position. Too many diagional balls going nowhere but out of play. Wilbraham - 3. Very poor as he has been for most of the season. Kodjia - 7. MOTM despite not being at his best. As I have said before, must wonder why he is bothering with this bunch of jokers he has joined up with. Subs: All 3 subs worked hard and did well. Think Agard must replace Wilbraham (and I'm not an Agard fan). Reid was unlucky to get dropped a few backs too.
  2. Great win - makes the journey back a bit better... Everyone brilliant except Little. Sadly he was ripped apart first half and looked off the pace. Needs more games. Legend Adomah at the end came over to the city fans with the other city players!
  3. Enjoyed the guy who moaned all night behind me, left on 80 minutes
  4. Smith looked OK not good I put! Won a fair bit things and distributed the ball OK.
  5. Poor game from our perspective. I don't think Sheff Wed will be a top side so to be beaten so comfortably was disappointing. First half we did OK in possession but didn't really hurt them. They should have scored with two great chances. Second half is when we started to fall apart. Most things came down the side that Bryan had vacated and was being filled by Fredericks. Worrying that Bryan might be out and that Fredericks looked so poor. We looked solid from set pieces apart from the one that undid us. Very unlike us. The only chance we had of note was Flint's header off the line and then they went and scored on the counter. Horrible mistake by Fielding - is he up to it at this level...question marks for me. Burns did well and looked unlucky not to win a penalty late in the game. Freeman a good first half but then easily stopped in the 2nd - again a concern if teams work him out. Derek Williams looked pretty poor today and not convinced if Pack can be a effective starter (his forward passing was very poor today). Korey, Flint and Ayling looked OK. Upfront - passes through to Kodjia were poor and Wilbraham worked hard but didnt cause them many problems. As has been said a million times, the squad is threadbare and even I would question if some of the first 11 are up to it let alone the subs. It is hard not to be down after that but it is only one game and after last season, we know this group can come back and produce much better. We need a confidence booster at Luton and a player or two before Brentford home.
  6. JET wasn't awful. Some of the stuff he did didn't come off but he still set-up plenty of attacks and his goal was just genius. I would have him in the team every week just because he can do that.
  7. Probably the best 0-0 I've ever seen watching City. Quality was excellent - 2 really good sides going at it, especially 2nd half.
  8. Very good save. No idea how ref and commentators missed the fact keeper touched it.
  9. I've only seen 10 minutes so far and we have been all over the shop. Was first half the same?!
  10. This isn't a bad result. A good effort and at least one less game if we had drawn.
  11. Clips top of bar. A good run there. As you would expect, West Ham much better this half but we have done pretty well.
  12. No way ref could have spotted it even if it did glance his hand. JET could have got a booking there - but think ref right not to.
  13. Flint and JET did well. Midfield over run today by scunnie. Did not keep ball we'll but considering they hadn't lost in league for a long time, it is a very good win. Can see them causing other top teams problems when they play them.
  14. S****horpe had a fair bit of ball but city defending well so far. Had a couple of corners but their keeper did well to punch away. Need to be better with all in 2nd half.
