Did the crowd boo after full time? I hope not!

Where is Oviedo?

 

[Norwegian Cow]

lukaku, mccarthy and browning has been our worst players today.
Best of ours today: Stones and Coleman.

 

[navidson]

Sums it up when they bring 50m+ off the bench and we bring on Naismith!!!

According to some of our fans we had 50m+ worth of talent on our bench - Our dud of a manager just decided not to utilise them

 

[EvertonRhys]

With the Yarmolenko move and this insipid performance, I've got a feeling the GOT mood-o-metre will be swinging only one way.

 

[Professor Toffee]

This Simon Coleman has been good, today

met a pieman going to the fair

 

[Blue Truth]

We really need Baines or Oviedo fit

 

[maccavennie]

He's had a great game, him and Coleman best for us today, Stones been good too.

And Cleverley too

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Rubbish that. I will never accept being beaten by Man City at home as acceptable. Football makes me miseable.

 

[Tramps_mate]

Are we announcing Yarmalenko now to ease the pain??


Oh wait...

 

[No8Bally]

Simon tried hard today

 

[HuddersfieldToffee]

Because the manager is a joke

Can you please go away?

 

[tsubaki]

Mirallas should've started. Failing that he should've at least been on with half an hour left to change the game. Instead he doesn't come on at all. Really laughable decision making from Martinez.

This. Mangala and Fernandinho on yellow cards and terrified of people running at them, it should have been Mirallas or Deulofeu brought on then.

 

[james2805]

Shocking tactics by Martinez today. Why play Kone and leave us completely outnumbered in midfield. And then switch back to the turgid partnership of McCarthy and Barry central. What a joke. Played better with a diamond and only one player sitting.

Then only bringing a winger on with 5 minutes to go? What was he thinking.

 

[EDINHO1]

They were just too good. But why just wait until they scored again ? Delofeuo and mirallas surely needed to come on after their goal.

Final pass was poor as well.
