Wouldn't say they're getting "bullied". They do however seem disorganised   :( .

Apparently City have only played 4 pre season games (?). I'n hoping their legs will go and we can begin to assert ourselves in the second half, so far it been a very disappointing performance from our lads.  :(

Many of the lads look rusty...but Salah looks on it. Which is amazing, given he only returned to pre-season training on monday  :oh:

Needed a few bad tackles and lack of sportsmanship to kick us into gear. This anit no friendly and City were the first to show this.. Now we're rattled we look far more energetic.

City are clinging on for dear life.  And even though we are as rusty as a coffin nail, I think we're the better team.

One thing I noticed is how much our attacking game is missing Mane today? he provides a lot of pace and forward push.

Matip coming in settles our backline as well

Mane has been given an extended break after the Africa cup
