I was there and I'd agree with flattered. We weren't bad but at no point did we control the match, our passing was pretty dodgy and our defending was terrible.

Even Aguero didn't have a brilliant match, ridiculous as that will sound, he scored 4 and could have scored at least 6 or 7, if he hadn't insisted on trying to score the perfect goal so often.

Yeah, he took his goals good but could have had more. But a good sign for you that you didnt play great and still won 4-1

Really? Seems like hes just trying to whack it away and his momentum caries him.

Yeah but that would be the case on other free kick and penalty decisions.

What a finish. Don't think i've seen a more undeserved win.

Over 4.5 goals matched at 1000 on betfair.

So lucky, not going to lie, we deserved nothing from the game. Balotelli was one of the worst performances Ive seen, he was such a waste of a place in the team. Will get raped by Madrid if we play like that

Gerrard and Balotelli were shocking. Coutinho has got to start.

Stoke v Swansea has a lot to live up to.

With hindsight, obviously, but he's been poor recently and didn't deserve to start over Lallana.

Yeah, it's hard to argue with that too much. Some moments of great quality but so many stupid, avoidable mistakes (from both sides) and that's something City seem to be doing a lot this season. We don't look anywhere near as cohesive a unit as we did last season.

That's true to an extent but if that keeps happening then you have to start looking at the process rather than the result, and work out what isn't working. I don't think there's a straight-forward answer to that for City.

Coutinho wasnt even great when he came on, kept trying to nutmeg players and lost the ball a few times, he looked better because he was fresh. Good ball though

How stupid is Shawcross right after the ref warns him. Glad they're catching onto that, hopefully stops Skrtel doing it too

Crazy end at the QPR game, comically bad defending all round - Liverpool may have won but they can't really take many positives from today and Balotelli was unbelievably bad, gave it away all the time, constantly chose the wrong option and also missed the open goal.

Yeah, I thought the scoreline flattered City. Okay maybe not flattered cause they played well, but looks harsh on Spurs, they weren't 4-1 bad.

Even Aguero didn't have a brilliant match, ridiculous as that will sound, he scored 4 and could have scored at least 6 or 7, if he hadn't insisted on trying to score the perfect goal so often.

So despite Citys dodgy passing, terrible defending, Spurs not being 4-1 bad and Aguero not having a brilliant match, they still beat us 4-1 with Aguero getting all 4 goals. That is why I am disappointed. I'm not saying I expected to ever get anything from the game, but the fact that we couldn't take advantage of City not being at their best is further proof that we really need a decent striker, probably a winger and a good defender to partner Vertonghen. Still at least we only conceded 4 this time, thats an improvement I suppose.

You're overstating how bad Tottenham were. A better striker and a better defender than Kaboul and it would have been far, far closer.

I'm not trying to say that we were bad, more like how we have a lack of quality and constant poor team selections.

In the summer everybody except Pochettino and Levy could see we desperatly needed a striker. So what did they do? Buy a goalie, 3 defenders and a defensive midfielder. Our transfer business rarely makes much sense to me.

Fair enough, that I'm more in agreement with. Spurs never do seem to play to the sum of their parts.
