It's far from negligible over 16 games though. It's easily enough to suggest we 'should' have got the extra couple of wins that would have us around 11th place.

Just watched it back, and it seems to me that Rose can clearly see the flight of the ball, and sprints flat out all the way. Wright is having to try and judge where it's going as it comes over his head, and hesitates for a couple of steps whilst running, which gives Rose the upper hand in...

Kidney stones now is it?

But the change in formation the other day made an enormous difference to our fluidity.

Surely the return of O’Hare looking lively is a positive too? And the formation change could prove to be a big moment I think. Strange to say that I’m happier after this defeat than before it.

Pretty sure nobody ever said the player was world class. It was just about one particular flick wasn't it? And to be fair it was as good a flick as you'll see :)

Very sorry to hear about this, and it’s sad that Ronnie spent so many years in care. However by the magic of that grainy film, it’s a real joy to see him in his prime. RIP Ronnie, you were always my favourite as a kid.

Yes, he's underappreciated.

That's genuinely a really interesting question. I imagine it might pan out a bit like our games against Boro in the playoff semis, although Boro last year carried more threat than we have (so far) this year, and we still beat them over two legs. A very difficult match to arrange though!

You're joking surely. And posting team plans / anticipated tactics a couple of days ahead of a game? I realise WBA wouldn't go looking for information on Sky Blues Talk, but anything plausible on the web travels everywhere within minutes. Genuinely surprised the apparent mole hasn't been whacked.

What, by a few defeats you mean?

What consensus? That's insane!

I bet the management team wish there were more supporters like you, with your boundless positivity. They must also be thrilled with your helpful leaking of stuff supplied by your insider (who should shut the f**k up IMO).

I don’t get why you find a City team stringing passes together boring – there have been plenty of periods in the past when we weren’t capable of that, and it was definitely worse to watch than what we have now. If we’d got one less win and finished 10th last season instead of scraping into the...

Preston seems just north of Chorley to me.

Fair points, but I have been really impressed with his technical ability and touch, and his interplay with those around him. When we signed him I imagined he was only a tricky dribbler. Considering he’s got no experience of a league like this, I think he’s doing really well and there’s more to...

Some absurd criticisms tonight, especially of Saka, Allen and Eccles (who played really well apart from the obvious poor set piece delivery, which he shouldn’t be asked to do anyway). I’ve also got to question a lot of the comments about lack of effort, desire and team spirit. I really didn’t...

Just wondering whether the ball moved late in the air for the first goal, which when hit at pace can cause keepers problems even when it appears to be hit straight at them. TV angles not helpful in that regard really.

Seems to me this is a trend in modern football.

With VAR this is 0-0
