Beaten 1-0 away by the best team in the league, no shame in it.

I thought we would do better, I had foolishly thought without KDB or Silva we would have a better chance, but Foden was immense and caused us problems whenever he had the ball.

We lost the ball stupidly at times, Miggy and Bruno especially, and they kept the ball very well… I had thought our fitness levels would tell come the final third… but their retention meant they finished with the same 11 as the didn’t have to chase the ball too much.

Spent a lot of time with 10 men in our own half, which hopefully won’t ever happen again this season.

Bruno looked off it again, I don’t know what is happening with him, is he carrying a knock, was that ankle injury from last season fully sorted, are his contract negotiations impacting him?

Miggy… said my piece on him too much, all effort and nowhere near the end product, especially against quality teams!

Anderson was a breath of fresh air and we attacked them more with him involved, so he was my big positive and hopefully done enough to get himself a lot more game time this season.
