Well am I getting pelters on Facebook and in the office (in Manchester)!
First half last night we were excellent! But once they had scored we still tried to play football and get forward and that is where the problems started!
Mattock was left on his own to stop Navas and Sagna! the lad did fantastic but he cant have two players to deal with and prevent crosses coming in. That's where the main damage was done.
If we are going to play one up top, fine! But don't put a striker in midfield to compensate, put a midfielder there to help Mattock. Helan would have been better starting and bring May on later! Nothing against May because I though he had a good game other than helping out Mattock
Palmer was great playing in the centre, only downside was he whimped out of two fifty fifty balls, but was probably our M.O.M.
Madine had a decent game in my eyes, I aint a big fan of his and he should have scored that half chance, but he lead the line well against a good City defence line.
Lees, brilliant again, someone will be in for him before the end of the season!
Weakest link, Kirkland! some of his positioning is woefull, had Westwood played I am sure it would only have been 4-0.
Big Dave needs to practice finishing from six yards. City's keeper parried a May shot straight to him and some how Nuhiu just scooped it back into his hands!
On the plus side, we played football in the right way and hopefully SG and Pellagrini had a beer and a chat afterwards about how we played football and if any City youngster would benefit from coming to us on loan.
What about the City fan who ran on with 10 minutes to go to get a selfie with Lampard! and Lampard posed for the photo! Top bloke (Lampard) and he applauded the travelling Massive at the end of the game!
