For me he has been very poor, poor work rate, average finisher and an amazing ability to find opposition players in the box from crosses. Only thing is that he is with the best coach/manager in history so he sees something in him that he can work on.
Was at the game, they were very comfortable and are now a very experienced team in European competitions. Highlights how well they have done competing against clubs with far bigger budgets as well as having little or no investment in the game from government.
Not to sure about that, they have had good managers over the past few years, problems are from top to bottom there and long may it continue. Any manager with any sort of good reputation wants their head examined if they go there.
Think that's was the idea all along, it's in no real interest for those who hate City for this to end soon. For me if City were to be found guilty it would of already been announced, but just keep it going on for as long as possible to ensure max damage.
Was bringing on Echeverria ineffect sending a message to some on the bench their time at City is up?? Could not get my head around that one, next two games will be tough and that World Club Cup is not ideal timing at all. At least we are spared the media circus of a game versus the dippers for...
I think this is the key, if you recall Peps celebrations after the Villa win, he knew how vital it was. I think alot of who is to come to City next season rests on Champions league qualification.
