I was just looking at the ages of our first team squad and fourteen players are aged between 20 and 26. The odd men out are Yaya 28, Lescott 29 and Barry 30. The future looks very good indeed. For those interested in the details: JH 24, PZ 26, MR 23, VK 25, SS 20, AK 25, GC 26, DS 25, SA 23...

The really great teams have not just got attackers but also defenders who are confident and comfortable on the ball eg. Barcelona. They never panic when players run at them, show great composure, and they manage to keep possession of the ball which is crucial at the highest level. I have noticed...

Liverpool fans are are seemingly very bitter about City getting Aguero. One fan has stated that Liverpool are actually building a team with their money whereas City are just buying a team. Could somebody please help me here and explain what this brain surgeon from Liverpool is actually...

Tevez.......if he goes it's a big miss. Dzeko.......jury is out as to how good he's gonna be. Balotelli.....physically very injury prone and mentally......no comment. Jo, Adebayor, RSC and Bellamy presumably on the way out. Hopefully we can buy well in the next month otherwise I am a bit...

I am hearing about us looking for a central defender, another top midlielder and striker which is fair enough if we are gonna challenge at the highest level. But I am really concerned about the left back position in the team and we must sign a top left back if we can.

I have been supporting City for 40 years and believe that the next few years are gonna be fantastic for all City supporters. I am sure that many bluemooners feel the same way and I just cannot wait for next season. Also, it's interesting that the better City get the more nasty and bitter United...

Any new players we bring in this summer must have pace to burn. This is crucial if we are to be competitive with the top teams. At the moment we just have too many slow players in the team. They are solid enough players but, in my opinion, the likes of Barry(who played well yesterday) and...

Congratulations to the Western in Galway for winning the HOTC award (see official site). I will be visiting the west of Ireland later this year and look forward to calling in there for a pint.....or two!!!!!!!.

Regarding his brother's problems Yaya has said..."I am at Manchester City due to the insistence of my brother. For me it will be very hard to play without him in the team." This type of comment really annoys me as, for me, it disrespects City in the first part and then shows a really weak...

Firstly, I hope you all play well tomorrow whoever plays. However, if you start making clumsy, stupid and unnecessary fouls(as you often do) giving away free kicks in dangerous areas, then a rather rotund gentleman(that's me) will run(jog slowly) onto the pitch and kick you up the backside with...

I was thinking to myself after the match tonight that I rarely watch a City game which really excites me and leaves me thinking.....wow!! what a performance that was....and it's really beginning to annoy me. I know we have had some good results but there seems to be something sadly lacking in...

I don't care about the Torres/ Carroll transfers but I am surprised that Mancini has not gone for David Luiz from Benfica. If Chelsea get him it will be a great signing for them as he would have been a great partner for Kompany.

With the long-term injury to AJ, the team is now really lacking a proper winger. We just have no width to our attack and I hope Mancini tries to do something in the transfer market tomorrow.

Nothing against Barry but we need the penetration and dribbling power of Johnson to scare the pants off teams. Barry's lack of pace is a problem....but he can certainly be a good squad player for the team. On the plus side today I think that Kolarov and Boateng are clearly starting to settle...

Maybe this has been mentioned before but it is now beginning to get on my nerves and doesn't do City any favours whatsoever. I am talking about the players waiting in the tunnel at half time and keeping everyone hanging around. It seems to be happening nearly every game now....is this some...

It is very clear that we need another top midfielder ( preferably a good goalscorer) to strengthen the team further. Barry and De Jong do not really contribute in the goalscoring....Yaya can be a threat but this is not enough, especially when we play just one up front. If Silva is out for a...

While watching the Barca-Madrid game the other night and seeing Xavi and Iniesta weaving their magic, I thought to myself how great it is that City have also now got a player in the same mould in the brilliantly gifted footballer that is David Silva. If only we could find one more like him to...

One thing I noticed yesterday was the quality of Kolarov's passing. Once he settles in I think he will be a great addition to the squad.

I don't like criticising City players but I must confess that their defending does not fill me with confidence. If a skillful player runs at them I just panic....it looks like Lescott is running on ice sometimes and will slip over any minute. It must be said though that Bridge can look very good...

In the Silva interview on the OS at about the 40 second-mark, possibly the dumbest question of all time was put to David Silva by that idiot who City employ to do these after match interviews....the question was ''Because of the hard work that Adebayor had done, did you find it easier to come...
