CITY v Birmingham - Official Match Thread

A solid performance with only Garrido looking weak. No yellow cards and no injuries too, unless you count Patrick in the warm-up. Baconface must be really shitting himself. I really hope that Shrek plays so they cannot use that as their excuse. Bring on the scum.
 
I think I get Mancinis DM tactic. They just sit on the out side and whenever the other team tries to get out they get the ball they just toss it back up, and if they can't can't they go back to the CB's and work it back up. Doesn't seem like he attacks with a midfield. They just stand guard while the strikers, wingers and full backs just pass it around try to open stuff up.

I have a feeling this comment will make me seem like an idiot lol. Oh well. I'm too happy to care!
 
Well played lads, keep it up for the derby, we need revenge.

Given - 7, didn't have much to do but played well.

Onuoha - 8, very good game from him, but he tends to blast the ball upfeild when he doesn't need to.
Toure - 7.5, solid enough.
Kompany - 8, very strong defensively, as usual.
Garrido - 6.5, don't want to be too harsh on him as I do like him, but his positioning and tackling were very poor today.

A Johnson - 8, willing, skillful and just very good alround.
de Jong - 7.5, he was good today, but he had to hold back alot to make sure he didnt get banned.
Barry 7.5, he was unpredictable as usual, brilliant vision and finding space mixed with hospital balls, dodgey tackling and wrong-powered passes.
Bellamy - 8, his usual self.

Tevez - 8.5, again, his usual self.
Adebayor - 9, one of the best matches I've seen him play.

SWP - 7.5, didn't have much time to do anything, but didn't do badly.
RSC - 7, a lack of time caused a lack of impact, but he did nothing wrong.
Cunningham - 7, I understand that he's a good player and needs experience, but I can't help thinking that it was a bit pointless bringng him on when he did.

Man of the match was Adebayor for me.
