he will probably refuse to move this summer unless we pay the difference in wages for the remainder of his contract which still runs for 2 years.

Don't blame him, poor footballer but he is not an idiot. No other club will match his wages.
 
I absolutely hate slagging City players off, but it is very hard not to agree with everyone on this, I think his time at the club has or is coming to an end, but if pep can make him into some kind of world beater then he will deserve the title best manager in the world.
 
Apart from the comments ( which i agree with in the main) - one thing I don't get is why are the other senior players ( Hart / Zabba on pitch yesterday ) and especially Kompany are not having strong words with him ?

He is not a kid and surely Hart had every right to verbally lay into the workshy prima Donna yesterday on the pitch
 
How much flipping time on the ball did he want yesterday? Some great players manipulate play and the pace of the game to suit themselves. Kolarov yesterday was either under the huge misconception that he can do that, or he was just plain not arsed/and or had a cob on about something. That was not a game for his silly bouncy one paced style of movement. Still annoyed at it, ffs.
 
The really annoying thing with him is he has always been inherently lazy. Over the years I've seen him coasting in some games as if he was saving himself for the bigger game a few days later. That's a fine approach if we can afford to coast, but this season and last, he's took the piss.

What's even worse is he's one of our captains. A supposed leader who has been trusted umpteen times with the armband.

Unlike a lot on here I will remember his better days with us, but he's really gone out of his way to tarnish his reputation a blue this season.
 
Sounds wrong to say but it would be very dangerous playing him in the final two league games. We can't afford anyone not trying to get us in the top 4.
 
The team selected was predictable. Apart from Fernando on the bench and Dino playing, I named it before kick off.
Pellers eyes are on Europe. He would be pleased if City got into the top 4, but he is not bothered. He is not here next year.
His failing yesterday was wanting to stay on good terms with the second string. No substitution of Kolorov and MDM coming on as a sub was ridicule.
 
Only good enough when attacking poor teams at home......for away games or games where you have to defend for a sustained period you can forget him.....basically playing with ten men.
 
Whilst agreeing that may be he time to move him on, he is another player that has been part our success over the years, and has been value for money.
 
He was shocking yesterday, worse then against Newcastle. He should be forced to watch that Mane goal again, and hang his head in shame, total slap in the face to the fans that paid the money and travelled. It doesn't surprise me that some of the young players are getting disillusioned, some of the senior players have let themselves down badly this season, yesterday they were shown up in quality and commitment by a 19 year old, yet still get picked with no consequences for poor performances. Angelino deserves an opportunity over Kolarov, he surely can't be any worse.

Has he fuck. He cost a fortune and has never had an extended spell of good form and has consistently been a defensive liability. Never been good enough and his attitude stinks

He has been value for money. His early days were excellent and he justified it at the time. Unfortunately he's been coasting on those days since and it probably would have been best for all involved to move him on last season.

Which early days was he excellent in? Clichy has completely outperformed him pretty much every year they've been here and he's a long way from being a world beater. Pellegrini's first year here is the only one I can remember where Kolarov actually consistently put in quality performances and he got his new contract and then put his feet up.
 
I agree that he's been value for money. He was first choice left back when we won the league in 14 and has been a key part of our most successful ever team.

Stopping running yesterday was inexcuseable - it was a terry phelan v kanchelskis moment for me - and his defensive play has always been relatively weak but he is a far better player than some on here suggest and offers so much more with the ball than Clichy or Sagna. I happen to think that Sterling and Delph were worse than him yesterday and Otamendi and Bony were at a similar standard. I am also not sure that he is in decline, certainly mot as much as Zabelata appears to be. But as we need to freshen up our fullbacks and Clichy is homegrown I can see him leaving.
 
He can be good, but he's gone through spells when he has been very poor.

I remember at the end of one season when he was arguing with South Stand at end of the game. His game seems to vary with his attitude. If he's on it he's as good as anyone going forward, but if he's not he is a weak link. Clichy isn't as good as him going forward, but more reliable.

Be wrong if he played then, he's corrupt morally and Grobellaresque without the disguise. Bet on it!

Yea. There can be no way a player who has so blatantly sabotaged the team should play for us again under any circumstances. And that's what he's done in two games now.
