Elano was well pi**ed off at Fulham game.

Hughes got it wrong with the two wide men - Petrov and Etuhu are no SWP or Robinho

We had a ht lead. and had enough fit competent players, to re-organise, and maintain control of the game. Didn't do it

But Elano flatters to deceive, and is not the answer. produces some great moments, but can go missing for long spells. If you want to get to the top 6 of the Premiership, you have to stop hero-worshipping average players with attitude problems. Just because he appears out of favour with Hughes doesn't mean he's Player of the Year

best player last season then petrov. he knows hes mint yet etuhu gets on before him. i like elano, hes skillfull with graft, feel sorry for the bloke hope he stays next season and gets a starting place

He really was, and no wonder- how can the best distributor of the ball we have be sat on the bench!

I think he should have played!! Let hope Hughes is just trying to fire him up for thursday....

 

[Balti]

Strange decision not to bring him on yesterday. Good enough for Brazil but not good enough to be an ordinary City team's sub ~:-0

 

[jay_mcfc]

only got himself to blame IMO

This.

I see the witch-hunt continues.

No excuses for Elano not playing yesterday, none at all.

This was better than that.

Haha good comment.

Only BT has blamed Elano for a very long time, even pre-Hughes. Said he couldn't wait until he was sold in January only he stayed and BT can't quite get over it.

 

[Halfpenny]

Ill be gutted if Hughes is still in charge by the summer.

Ditto. Might even be enough to put me off renewing.
