City - United Post Match Thread

Just watching MOTD again and I noticed it during the match and it wound me up as much then.

When they show highlights of Kompany's performance there's a clip of him nipping in and taking the ball off of Rooney and Webb immediately points to the ball, to signal Vinny played the ball of course, then Rooney starts walking towards Webb, shouting at him, and all of a sudden he decides to signal for advantage/play on.

A small thing I know but that shows players influence on the ref, shocking it was from United though...

Don't understand your angst. Kompany won the ball, Rooney wanted a foul but the ref pointed to the ball and said play on, no foul. And your pissed off? I'd be pissed of if he played on and then gave Rooney a free kick when he asked. But he said no to him.

No, I'm saying he waved that Kompany won the ball but only when Rooney started mouthing off did he wave for advantage, as United had the ball.

As in he would have called it back for a free if United gave it away.

Webb definitely signalled an advantage to me, he wasn't just saying play on. I noticed it at the game and queried where the foul had been.

You said Kompany took the ball off Rooney?

Again, apologies for the quality, might have cut out a bit short.

Right. Got you. Thought you were saying he took the ball off him and we retained possession. Was probably a foul.
 
Just watched the full Super Sunday coverage and loved it. Funny hearing them on about being 2-0 up at HT in '93, with Quinn being in the studio too. No chance of a repeat of that comeback from the rags this time though.

Think they'll struggle to stay in the top four tbh. As for us, the markers been set, now let's get some payback from Wigan and nail Villa to go into the Bayern game in great shape.
 
I like how when Yaya scores his goal and the ball rolls out the net towards de gay, he just starts doing keepy-ups like he just doesn't give a shit :)

When you look at this performance and consider how much Hodgeson appears to rely on Carrick, Cleverly, Young, Welbeck. Its no wonder we are fucked when it comes to international football. Even Rooney is not close to world class.


absolutely bang on the button.well said sir.

Noticed this in the papers this morning

Makes our 2 goals in the second half even more impressive!..

Not to mention an attempt by Negredo and another two by Dzeko.

Standard of journalism is fucking dire. Lets tell a load of lies to make a absolutely worthless point!

Needless to say Sky sports all through tonight have barely mentioned the fact we took them to the cleaners and haven't had our goals being played on a constant loop unlike when they did us last year with a last minute free kick. What a shower of shit SS are! lol

That football ground photo is fuck all like our ground either!
