We played well; players gave everything, and didn’t deserve to lose.
Man City aren’t as far ahead as everyone claims they are.
Thomas Vermaelen has a hint of Pele about him. The best makeshift forward I’ve ever seen, and he deserved a goal.
Joe Hart had a stormer. Should be England’s number one for many years to come.
Phil Dowd is a fat, useless, waste of space, and I’m ashamed to say that I breathe the same oxygen on Earth that he does. He made some dreadful decisions, for both sides.
Gervinho was pretty poor today. Got into some great positions, but decision making was awful and he was aimless and clueless at times. He needs to re-watch his game today, and do the exact opposite against Villa. Good player, but needs to find consistency.
Andrei Arshavin should be sold to the highest bidder in January. Even if it’s £5m, get rid of him. A waste of wages, which could go to someone like Marco Reus, who would actually have affected the game had he come on.
Man City handled Theo Walcott very well. Had two men on him at most times, and barely gave him an inch. Theo was poor, and will learn from today.
I want to see more Ox.
Laurent Koscielny proved once again that he’s one of the best defenders in the league. Was impeccable.
I love Aaron Ramsey, but his attempted little flicks annoy me. Didn’t work once, and every time there was a simpler, easier alternative option.
It was one hell of a game. So fast, and end to end. Could have been ten goals by the end.
$amir Na$ri was OK against an out of position right back. Definitely not £24m worth of quality.
A draw would have been fair. Both sides had great chances. We deserved at least a point.
Not having full backs hurt us dearly. We did fantastically considering. Ignasi Miquel did well when he came on. Made some good jab tackles in the area that I was too scared to watch happen.
The tannoy bloke at the Etihad is one hell of a prick.
Our away fans were, as always, incredible.
Thursday night, Channel 5.
Did I mention Phil Dowd is a gigantic twat?
It was a great game for a neutral, but I could barely watch at the end. So nerve wrecking. And not getting a goal really hurt.
We can’t get too down heartened by this. Team need to re-watch the game, learn from the mistakes, and focus on beating a lowly Aston Villa on Wednesday.
We’re only three points off 4th place having been away to Chelsea, Man United, Sp*rs and now City. They all have to come to the Emirates. If we take at least nine points from those 12, we’ll be in a strong position.
I’m very proud of the lads. Gave their all, which is all we can ask. We’ll bounce back.
Roll on Villa on Wednesday.
Forward.
