This result tonight is not on Potter.

System was good, play was good, defensively we were generally solid other than their goal. We should have won this game 2 or 3-1. Felix should have got at least two

We just can't score and we're really not going to get very far while that remains the case...

Sounded like our best performance of the season.

Positives -James quickly getting back to his best. Silva as good as ever. Chilli getting stronger as the match progressed. KK having a steady game. Creating lots of chances and very unlucky to lose.

Negatives - Same old problems up front. Some worrying signs from two very expensive new signings.

Good game though and one plus is the away goal rule doesn't apply anymore

We looked solid at the back and created a lot of chances. But lack of a quality striker really showed. Havertz is never going to be a prolific scorer. Mudryk looked very raw at times. Felix should have scored in the first half. Frustrating we were caught out so badly for the goal. Promising signs though. Reece James is coming along nicely and Chilwell got an hour under his belt.

It's becoming a mental block for us. All it might take is a few goals and wins  to turn this around. Couldn't have asked for more effort from the lads tonight and overall performances are improving which is all most of us are looking for.

Wanna see what we’re missing, watch Haaland’s goal for City tonight one touch to set it up and bang, goal.

Problem is, where’s one like him? In fact where have all the strikers gone generally since the obsession with midfielders started 10 years ago.

 

Is Abama totally out of the picture for us now?

That's true!

There's Haaland and Mbape and then Kane a level below them. There's a huge gulf between those three and the rest.

I think it just needs to click. A goal could all be that is required. Two great performances away from home in the last two games where normally we'd come away with the wins. 

Get the striker comments but, I don't think it's just down to this. It's more to do with confidence, some of those chances could've easily been in on another day. We're only going to get better from here as the team start to settle and gel!

Felix looks like a keeper for sure. Silva, James, Enzo and Felix were a cut above everyone on the field. Strong performances from Chilwell, Loftus Cheek and Koulibaly as well. Felt Kepa was again very good too. 

Jude Bellingham looks like a very huge guy and he carries the ball well. He's got that edge to him. Whoever he goes to in the summer will get a really good player IMO.
