We were okay first half, never like it when we score first, we never seem to kick on and dominate the game, especially away from home, but then we're built to counter now, so it should sit in our favour.
Not so. City weren't particularly impressive, but when you can replace 30millions striker with 20million striker it shows.
Second half we came out flat and City just got up a head of steam. Thought we'd hold on for the draw and then Dzeko popped up with the winner.
We lack a bit of guile up front, Dempsey did nothing, looks like he's still adapting, Lennon has reverted to the form of a season or two ago where he looks to pass back or sideways rather than taking on his man.. And despite it being Maribor, we looked dangerous with Ade and Defoe in the side..
But we're still top 7 without playing particularly well this season, so fingers crossed we improve and kick on..
