He was getting destroyed by Aguero's movement. Unless we are camped inside our own half and Terry only has to mark a 5 yard space he will always get destroyed by the best forwards. Come on man, you can't expect a 34-year-old Terry to stay with Aguero. Cahill can't and he's 5 years younger. Our defdenders are rubbish and can only defend one way. They got exposed today. This is why we play the way we do against good teams: even our so-called best players are deeply flawed.

It really is.

Absolutely delusional. Pellegrini has learnt his lesson from the 1-0 defeat in 13-14 season. In fact, their very next game against Chelsea was 2 just weeks later in the FA Cup where Pellegrini set up differently and ultimately won 2-0. Meanwhile Jose has been trying to recreate the 1-0 ever since. For a supposedly tactical coach he sure doesn't make many adjustments.

One of our so-called best players but plays bad to average every time we play a top team. So bad sometimes he has to be hidden in different positions ( #10 role).

Jose Mourinho 4 more years

We will win comfortably against a rubbish team with Terry, Ivanovic, Fabregas etc all doing well and the praise will come showering down on them and Jose.

Because Falcao is shit and Mourinho doesn't like Remy.

Yeah, Hazard fucked up there.

He had 4 defenders around him with no teammate in sight. Everybody would have slowed down there.

Because we're going to push forward and Terry does not have the legs to handle Aguero.

I guarantee you that Fabregas will get more motm votes than Ramires.

So many of our supposedly best players are getting exposed today.

This is why we should have started with Zouma.

Hazard playing for Man City today would be fucking DESTROYING us. At the top level you can't do it on your own. Look at the team Aguero is playing with and look at team Hazard is. Night and day difference.

I miss the 27%, 2 shots...we looked far more solid.

Every time people try to talk about more pressing issues they're shouted down for being either Jose haters, told they know nothing about football, glory hunters etc.

Jose not happy with the City medical staff methinks. Costa is just tired, he would have got up.

I guess Jose will only allow the medical staff on if there is blood or a visible leg break.

Lack of skill and technique.

Haha at all the people criticising guys like Willian and Ramires but would never utter a negative word about Fabregas.

Because City have better players.

No, Terry is the best ever and can play until he's 45 apparently.

Completely and utterly deserved. The team that has a clear identity and developed style of play is winning. The team that is a complete mishmash of players with no developed style of play is struggling to make inroads.

Players not keen to over exert themselves as medical staff aren't allowed to tend to them.

This comment wouldn't look out of place in any match thread since January.
