this is just abysmal. just lobbing it in and hoping for a penalty or defensive error. no continuity or movement in the middle. no good attacking ideas. the lone bright spot is AJ and he only played 30 minutes. boateng looked out of sorts and was making errors all second half. if milner is going to play he needs to play centrally and start AJ on a wing. this is just shite. absolute shite.

not using AJ is just stupid. We are stuck on stupid. I feel like im watching effing Gary Crowton and Les Miles
If Barry continues to start, we should shoot up some people. This just sucks, and we aren't going to beat anybody by just putting it in the box on a prayer. how stupid. just pathetic

I mean how many games in a row has it been that barry has been the weak link who has to be subbed off? why we continue to start him is beyond me. I think I am gonna be sick.

Troubling Press out of the City Camp:
Why Mancini Sucks
quote:

And can someone explain why Johnson has only gotten four starts in the Premier League this season? Does Mancini have something against attack-minded wingers who can run at defenses, rip down the flank or cut inside and blast a shot with his left foot? If it's Johnson's fondness for beer on a day off, well, Mancini needs to get over it. Johnson has the creativity and pace to turn a game on its head. The fact that Mancini doesn't start him more often makes about as much sense as Ashley Cole being left off the short list for the Ballon d'Or.

For all the money the club has invested in high-priced talent, City continues to have more issues than City Hall. The defense is shakier than a house of cards at the moment, conceding seven goals in the last three games. Even more troubling for City, the team is not using its head -- literally -- as it hasn't tallied a goal from a header yet this season. That's a telltale sign that Mancini and his coaching staff might want to reacquaint themselves with this little thing called "set pieces."

These issues will need fixing -- sooner, not later -- if City hopes to finish in the top four for the first time since 1978.


Mancini is retarded
quote:

They're also baffled by him tactically - for example, they couldn't understand why he brought on defender Pablo Zabaleta for Emmanuel Adebayor instead of striker Jo at Wolves on Saturday."

they already did. 2-0 over wba. balotelli with two good strikes but a lot of stupid fouls that led to him getting a red. His last foul was like a minute before he was about to come off. Luckily, it didn't hurt us. Fans were cheering for mancini. I was a bit perplexed by the formation at first becuase they had yaya as the second striker in behind tevez, but it ended up working alright because balotelli was so far up the wing that it looked like a 3 forward formation. Certainly not a pretty win, but a result none the less.

Well what a terrible game. frick MANCINI. He is set to draw with birmingham and switches zabaleta for kolarov and barry for tevez. Playing for the fricking draw at home against birmingham. Mancini is dead to me.

Johnson was fine. Nothing spectacular, but as good as anybody else out there. Just pisses me off that mancini doesn't go for the win.
