Atmosphere will be crucial.
It's rare to have home fans singing "You x up and you still don't sing" - City didn't exactly worry me too much when we consider the first goal is what we expect from world class players to pounce on mistakes, the second goal was unfortunate. It wasn't like they carved us open.
We need improvement in the midfield, that's a given but I don't think we were THAT bad.
Could be worse, could have lost 3-0 to Huddersfield...at home.
I completely agree. Although, we need to score goals as well as defend resolutely (which we did for most of the game) Proper looked poor but maybe too soon to judge and if Burnley still want Stephens then let's talk. Most of all we need a front man who can at the very least occupy a couple of the oppositions players and we don't have that yet. I thought Hemed looked out of his depth in the first half and Murray wasn't given enough time to make a difference.
Thanks I think I did quite well

We do need to score, I think the problem with that is that Gross and Hemed were completely isolated and there was no link between the midfield and the strikers. I don't agree with Hemed looking out of depth, we all know he has no pace of note. He was always going to struggle in that situation. I wouldn't say he will be a good player for us in this league, but I don't think it's fair to say he was out of depth.
Esquirdo looks to be more of a crucial signing.
Oi you two: none of that player talk on my fan praise thread!
You were my fan of the match.
Tony will be pleased that we ingratiated ourselves with middle eastern oil money.
