IlKay And Leroy Express Their Disappointment

|

Less than 24 hours have passed since Wednesday evenings Champions League home debacle against Lyon, and at last, a few Manchester City players have reared their head above the parfait and began to express their opinions.

There is no doubt about it. Manchester City came back down to earth with a bump last night, but hey, an Etihad defeat in the first Group F tie of the season is not the end of the world.

What annoyed me was the inability to pass the ball in a way we’ve been accustomed. Another thing that tends to ‘grind my gears’ was when we Blues booed the Champions League anthem. Anyway, and on a positive note, we have Cardiff City to look forward to on Saturday.

Leroy Sane

Disappointing start into the @ChampionsLeague campaign. We have to improve. But there are still enough games to turn this around.”

Ilkay Gundogan

Seriously unhappy about our start in the @championsleague – it was an evening to forget. We’ll come with much more energy into the next matches.”

This morning I gave the City players a rating out of 10 for last night’s performance. If you want to find out what I said, click here.
