Got Andy 'what he should have done' Townsend on NBC co-comms. :weep:

alderz

Did I just see Wilshere limping

SuzanneClaret

Holding our own...


Nice.

Ace of Clubs

I think their passing seems to have improved since last season.

OldCastleSwift

City starting to warm up

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Mahrez starting to find some space down our left

alderz

How was Fabianski so calm when my heart was in my throat

buffybegood

Poor from Wilshere as we looked to create something.

alderz

That's very unfortunate

Cuz1

Diop doh

OldCastleSwift

We've had a couple of decent openings so far but our decision making or final pass has been poor.

And then City score. Cresswell burnt by Walker

SuzanneClaret

Oh

SuzanneClaret

Looks like it’s Jesus’s goal.

Can’t help thinking playing the son of god is a bit underhanded.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Jesus got the last touch

Unlucky still

Gotta keep our head we've started very well

Walker just took Cresswell apart

whupathman

Need to have a shot on goal to score

MIAHammer

City go ahead.
Bright start by us though. Plenty of energy but haven’t really threatened their goal.
You have to be impressed how City play it out from the back even when they’re under pressure.

alderz

They're starting to turn the screw a bit now

OldCastleSwift

Yeah, with City's pace on the flanks I'm surprised Masuaku didn't start.

Antonio's covering has been poor, too.

grey_til_I_dye

Not sure Cressers could do much about it. He had to face the play, and no one's catching Walker when he gets going like that.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

Anderson needs to play on the left and help out Cresswell

Need to stem their attacks

Maybe, but he played on the right for most of pre-season I think.

ianbishoplegend

Masuaku for Antonio. Need some rapid pace on the left to cover Cresswell

SuzanneClaret

True Grey, I think though Cresswell needs to cut down on the offensive running and stay back a bit more. He’s going to get caught out every time by Walker.

buffybegood

Great work from Rice

thornburyiron

They’ve had 5 shots to our none.

SuzanneClaret

Lanzini needs to stay on his feet, this falling over and claiming a penalty is staring to get on my nerves.

alderz

The atmosphere sounded really good to start, but the second they scored it turned almost silent

Yeoldhammer

City comfortable even in gear 1.

They're Man City to our West Ham...

That’s what happens there, more often than not.
