That was meant to say 'considered as a top class centre half'

Finally!!!! Someone who understands me!

That doesnt matter, he was onside in the second phase of play

He was so far up the pitch because everyone was trying to play Messi offside, Vinnie played him on (a mistake which lead to the goal and sending off but he was still outstanding) as a result he had to attempt the tackle. I have mentioned it elsewhere, i am not a fan of him and he is not up to...

I think it is a stretch to consider him as a centre half. I think he has literally been brought in as a stop gap and to his credit he is giving it a go and putting in some decent performances, but he is just not good enough for this level anymore.

Did you goto the game or spend the night with Corky ;)

But that said, if he had backed out of the tackle, he would get even more stick! You cant win!

Re: How do you feel after a defeat like that? I thought he played well in both todays match and that one against Chelsea. I do not think that he is upto the standard of our team, but as a player, those two performances were decent in comparison to some of the games he has played for us.

Thanks for your support!

Great post. Unfortunately for MDM, he was in the wrong place at the wrong time against arguably the greatest player that has ever lived.

Re: How do you feel after a defeat like that? Probably because he did play well until that point. You cannot judge a players performance on 1 second of it, instead consider the other 53 minutes.

So you go back on your previous statement that 'giving away a penalty and getting sent off means he didnt play well'. You have a massive agenda against Demichelis. I dont think he has put in many performances for city, but for the time he was on the pitch tonight he played well. But if he had...

How does it. So on that basis, Messi could score 10 goals tonight and then give away a penalty and get sent off and therefore he 'wouldnt have played very well'...

He did not play well tonight.

If Kompany had made that challenge no one would have batted an eyelid.

But the fact he played very well against Barcelona still means he is crap does it, behave!

Put it this way He dived in and everyone slated him for it. If he had not dived in, everyone would have slated him for no effort or commitment blah blah blah. I feel for the fella, he cannot win. If you understand football at all you will realise that he put in a very good performance tonight...

yes

Demichelis was fantastic tonight until his red card.
