Dzeko, or Negrado? Sagna, or Richards? Even Navas, or Lopez? (oh sorry, forgot they’re all out on loan)
We’re a shambles and an ageing side that needs an injection of pace and enthusiasm urgently

What a shambles!

Newcastle were 15/1 to win and it looked like all the Man City players had put £1000 on them. Even if they didn’t they should all give a week’s pay to charity, as they certainly don’t deserve to keep it!

After the previous two matches they surely couldn’t have been expecting a walk in the park – but they must have been.

I’m dreading Sunday now, but…………

There’s a lot of talk about 4-5-1 over 4-4-2 at the moment but I think some of that is disguising just how bad Dzeko has been recently. His frist touch of old has returned and we may as well paly 4-4-1 because nothing has stuck.

Mangala has seem rushed on the ball but I definitely think he will improve with time, however it has to be Martin this Sunday as it’s a big game perhaps even season defining.

I was very suprised to see Silva start, that could really cost us.

Nasri was our best player. Caballero was culpable for both goals and I’m convinced Hart would have saved both. The fragile confidence we came into the game with was destroyed by conceding an early goal and Willy should have saved it. I agree with your markings especially Dzeko who was been a downright liability in the last 2 games. Jovetic and Mangala both need to calm down and inject a large measure of composure into their games if they are to maintain starting places.
