i agree with you. i said this before the game, we cant play slow and let them into the game. but it became clear that we were never going to not let them get into the game the way they were playing. every single player on their team was playing out of their skin and winning everything vs us. i dont even think its us being bad, ive already matic was poor, they lifted to a level that you reach when you are desperate down and dejected. everyone one their team was up for it and they took us by surprise. i dont think theres a switch that you can turn to suddenly not get physically beat like that. They were riled up and hungry today so its why they came out the way they did, they would have been like that against any team. i dont even think we played badly, we literally got outmuscled out of the game then we settled and really played well.

We werent tactically lost, it came down to two mistakes that cost us the goals. two silly stupid mistakes. I want Ivanovic off the pitch I really do so im not gonna disagree with you that hes playing people who should be nowhere near the fucking pitch. I wasnt sure about Remy today either and he made no impact whatsoever today. But at the same time other people are shitting on players who played well today like Fabregas, hazard had a good game today too. If Pedro scored that goal which he should have when Fabregas made a beautiful ball over to him then we all would have been raving about them two. If Ramires scored that header which krul saved we would have been up 3-2 and everyone would have been talking about how good we are. it doesnt make sense for us to not start well and be dominated like that against Newcastle in the first half but thats football, its more than just on paper. the emotion, anger, motivation all that stuff from them and their fans who were right behind them today would have contributed to the way they played. sometimes you cant counter that. I hate how when we dont win people here exaggerate everything and say how shit we are. we've made 1 point on city. it should have been 3 but its still one point closer. We were 11 points behind at one stage and everyone was saying that we're out of the race. There were people calling for Mourinho to be sacked after Everton (just to be clear you dont want him gone do you?) and saying "tactics this we're shit that". Then we beat Arsenal when we are awful, a number of our top players who were playing badly turned up on the day and we outplayed them when we were written off. that is football. im glad that we came back in about 15 minutes from 2-0 down, you look at how up they were the whole stadium was cheering them on and the team showed enough spirit to grab a goal and keep on fighting to win. It's football and you never know in this league. City lost to West Ham and 4-1 to Tottenham today 2 weeks ago everybody would have told you we are shit we're not in the title race sack mournho. then today before the game everyone gets their hopes up and says we are back we're gonna win the league completely pretend they werent speaking that filth two weeks ago. and those same people will be back today. i cant stand the plastics who love to be negative and spew hatred towards our team when things dont go our way and a lot of them are out in full force right now even though it wasnt the worst result. We're nowhere near the end of the season and the game has got smaller to 8-9 points i think between us and United. anything can happen. obviously it wasnt a good result today but theres no use in exagerrating and lying about players and the team when we're bad. what use is that when its not even true?
