De Bruyne would be an unbelievable player if he had a yard more pace.

would be funny to hear mourinho moan after the game that he doesn't have the same resources as city.

Sane has been dreadful.

Hard to believe there was a time when most people thought David Silva was a better player than Mesut Özil. 😆

At the time Ozil was adapting to the league and Silva wasn't in his 30s

Silva has been fantastic today as well, bit of a strange post

Pogba is such a luxury player. There's nothing to him in two thirds of the pitch.

How the hell are City not out of sight? Just can't finish.

Think Pogba needs to be in Rooney position.

Silva is a miles better player than Pogba

Does that frustrating thing of stopping when he gets the ball even though he has the beating of Shaw.

lorddulaarsenal

Seriously don't think Pogba has a good footballing brain

banduan

won't mind a draw here.

Bravo is pathetic. Can't wait to see him against Stoke and the like.

lorddulaarsenal

Sane doesn't look fit

As I said, I've only seen the second half, he's been good although wasteful at key moments, but he's still not, and has never been, a patch on Özil. In my humble opinion. Completely different class of footballer.

Bravo was hilariously bad.

Good match, enjoyable to watch.

Maybe from a standing start, but when he gets going he's one of the quickest in the league

Ricky1985

Yes. Have that Jose you horrible cunt.

Ozil has got the better final ball but there's no better technician in the league than Silva, IMO

Different players though, so I don't know why people compare them.

Much prefer Mourinho's face in the mud. 2-1 may not quite be that, but I will take it.

Second half was very poor. City were top notch in the first half though. Pep has made a big difference much quicker than I expected. Agueros fitness and Bravo are the big question marks for them this season.

Don't agree at all. And he's not just slow off the mark, he has no burst whatsoever.

Fair enough, obviously he's not currently at Ozil's level but a few years ago at his peak he had a bit more pace and, crucially, had goals in his game. An academic debate now though
