He was sleeping when the golden chance arrived. This ain't Bristol City.

Honest question, how can Abraham actually be your choice out of the three? Michy should be the clear favourite with the par so low.

Abraham shouldn't have started. That single change could have seen us ahead at the break and we might be talking about a deserved victory rather than a shambolic display in the final 30 mins. Fine margins

When you have Azpi & Pedro down the right side for 90 mins, you expect the worst even against a semi decent side. Lampard's naivety showed today, unfortunately. Two liabilities in the back line will be replaced soon enough. Will have to see if that's enough.

I'd normally be livid, but I will take it as the first game and put it aside. The entire team needs to do more defensively.

The obvious downside of fielding players that aren't up to scratch at this level. Abraham shouldn't be starting games until he actually shows something of note.

What sort of defending is that? Shambolic second half

Kante on to keep things respectable against this Utd side. I didn't expect that to be the case at HT.

Failing to take our chances as per norm and schoolboy defending. Really is tragic

All the good work down the drain

Someone to hold the ball for the final 25 mins

We can't persist with Abraham for much longer in this game.

Zouma and Abraham are the two talking points. The former has gifted Utd their real openings in the first half and the latter was napping when a golden chance presented itself. However, aside from the scoreline, its been a promising half.

Live in hope he delivers when it matters.

Michy excluded despite travelling. He ain't going to get that chance here. [emoji52]

I really hope Michy is fit/gets the nod.

That Jota substitution stopped any threat Villa had and gifted Spurs the momentum.

Fair enough. I'm completely the other way, as Mane offers much more to me. If he didn't have so many brain farts in front of goal, he'd be matching Salah's debut tally.

He's been allowed to mold teams with the best players to get the most out of his teams. No matter how poor Mourinho has been in recent years, his successes at Inter (even Porto to an extent) won't be match by Pep's achievements at City. This side won't win the CL. You're forgetting Mane.

All decisions were looked at last season during the summer & showed Liverpool winning the league by a point had VAR been in play. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7342069/amp/Liverpool-beaten-Manchester-City-Premier-League-title-one-point-VAR-used.html?__twitter_impression=true

I understand most of this Norwich squad have never played in the Prem, but how can they be so naive? Liverpool could beat our record at this rate (6-0 against WBA). Going the other way? Very few can do both at the top.

Seems like they are going back to 2017/18.

I'm pleased his rumoured move didn't come to anything for the reasons you mentioned. He could be a useful wild card in certain situations and the only left footed winger we have.

AC played on the left in our last two games. It isn't exactly going to be a shocked to his system.
