I think some people are missing the point. If City changed their system to cater for this ONE player so we could see the best of him or whether City brought in new players to bring out the best of this ONE player, he would still remain a below par player. He offers nothing other than giving away...

The top and bottom of it, De Jong is not a good player. "He's tough", "He's a tackler". No he isn't. He's a headless chicken who chases shadows. He kills any forward play cos he can't pass the ball for shit, so sideways or backwards he goes. City have the capabilities and promise of playing...

The definition of joy riding - driving the Hurst to Fergie's funeral.

DeJong and Barry can't play the ball forward with any pace or imagination. They slow up every attack because they won't take any kind of responsibility. This makes Ireland game ineffective because he's all about the break and quick passing. Stop Barry and DeJong playing together and you will see...

Excellent thread. If you don't want to go as far as the Strangle Wank but fancy a change but lack imagination, I highly recommend The Elbow Wank - sellotape your wanking hand to your shoulder (any type of secure binding will do). Your arm should now resemble an acute triangle. With your free...

Not wanting to jump on any type of bandwagon but he is on the right road to become a City legend. From his lack of celebration at West Ham to his slating of the rags, to his single-minded attitude and determination involving football but at the same time putting his family first and showing...

Good post OP. I think Mancini is trying to resolve problems back-to-front (defence, midfield, forward). This is a slow process and we need to give our boss some time to get his head around the premiership. Ade and Tevez will click eventually upfront, with back-up from Ireland (or a similar...

F*ck the rags and what happens at the Theatre of Dweebs. For this season we have to care very little about what happens with those couple of places above us. It's all about learning to beat them and matching them, which we are slowly doing. Once we are comfy and competing then it's time to start...

I only checked out this post because I thought someone had a query about Captain Richard Sharpe of Wellingtons Rifles. I'm a tad disappointed now, I have a lot to say on the matter.

A dozen games on the trot with Tevez and we have an unstoppable forward line.

Excuse the Americanism but do DeJong doesn't have enough in the 'locker' for where City want to go. Fair enough, he can break up attacks (sometimes) but that's all he has in the way of team play. The guy takes no responsibility within the game. He'll pass the ball three yards sideways rather...
