    No surprises.
    City turn on the style for their fans with no fear having won the league .
    Only concerns - Fernandez & goal difference.

    In all honesty IMHO by the time we get to play you , we have Bournemouth & Everton to deal with . You just know what's going to happen when the Cherries come to town .

    You may not score another point , you may not need to .

    WE remain in huge danger at the bottom, four points ahead of the relegation zone with four games remaining, We all knew we were onto a hiding here today, but there was no fight from our players, they were spectators on the pitch, very worrying for the remaining games if we continue to play like that, utter dross.......<ok>

    It was a gutless performance, and we have had too many of these this season, especially under Clement, the Southampton game is now a massive fixture!!............<ok>

    I think it's the away games are the problem where Carlos is ultra negative. I thought we played well against Everton. He needs a couple of lobsters instead of the shrimps Jenkins has poached.

    Don’t like to be over negative but I thought Swansea were extremely poor
    Best sides we’ve played at the Etihad this year were Burnley Wolves & Bristol City who all worked their socks off and didn’t sit back and allow us to play
    I don’t think I saw a Swansea player make a tackle in the first half hour
    Was there any definable tactic being displayed,I certainly didn’t notice a switch from plan A to B?
    Good luck in your last few games,could be squeaky bum time though

    No, IF we stay up or go down Carlos is not the man for us. No sentimentality from me if he keeps us up, look what happened when we kept Clement on. Again IF we stay up, we don’t want a ****ing third season of fighting for survival.

    Agree. It happened with Guidolin too.

    Calling us "extremely poor" is being very generous. We were appalling. <ok>

    I was confident a few weeks ago of staying up, but with performances like that it’s being eroded away. The home games now are crucial, we have to make an effort against Chelsea, as we don’t want to go into the Southampton game with losing three on the bounce, as I expect Bournemouth to turn us over. :(

    If we offer Carlos a one or two year contract after his last 7 games then we deserve what we get.....Cheap options dont give you success especially in the premiership.....

    Looking at all the remaining fixtures of the teams we’re up against for survival & our run-in is as good as it gets for any team wanting that chance to stay up. But trouble is, we’re a gutless team at times & I’m not totally confident we’ve got the stomach for a fight. That’s a pity, because a fired up team could get something at home against Chelsea, we could even beat them with the proper application. But I see the likes of Carroll, Naughton, the Ayew’s, King, Olsson, in fact the whole fvckin lot of the spineless bastards today & I think we won’t be able to get the points required off Southampton & Stoke..

    Our destiny might just be down to sheer luck & that 4 point gap..
