    Another really disappointing performance

    Not the worst point but that just isnt good enough.

    Huge opportunity to knock City out of the title race and we haven't taken it.

    Slightly over the top Pedro

    7 points ahead doesn?t have them out of the title race but 9 points would?

      It could have been 11, and that would. Instead it is 7, and that doesn't. We've let City off the hook.

      But as ever, it is the performances that worry me. Liverpool dominated us in the second half and we struggled to take any real control today after the first 35 minutes.

      Worrying. You can feel tension and sloppiness in both games.

        Nobody would've said anything if they'd given us that penalty.

        Very odd, but teams that win the title get those decisions, don't they

          I didn't think it was a penalty.....

          Having watched it again and again I can see it does brush the arm but it would have been incredibly harsh to call that clear and obvious.

          But then you think about some of those we have had overturned.. .

          Anyway, it was Michael Oliver. Just be grateful nobody was sent off.

            Right. If he's gone soft in his old age, we still have a chance.

              He literally sweeps the ball back in play with his arm so we don't get a corner. Stick on pen
