City V Southampton post match discussion

[taffytheblue]

thought the defence looked shakey,but if we had taken our chances we would have been out of site before Southampton scored.Don't think the Saints are a good team and will struggle

 

[BosnianSuperSnake]

Nasri definitely the man of the match . Excellent performance

 

[SebastianBlue]

Well, we made work of that, didn't we?

Defense: Pretty awful
Midfield: Not great
Attack: Mediocre

Positives: We can only get better

 

[DANNY O'B]

Hart, Silva, Lescott - must do better.

And Rodwell. Lots of people got really ticked off at me for being doubtful about him. Christ on a pogo stick.

Played really well. One errant pass does not a bad game make.

that mistake lead to a goal though so maybe it does?

A game we won, in part due to a good all round performance from the lad, so no it doesnt ;)

Glad we got the win.

Looked awful at the back second half.

Nasri man of the match.

Agree, also Rodders played well apart from that very poor pass that led to the goal. But he will learn never to do that again you could see it on his face.
Hart poor imo

 

[svennis pennis]

Nasri was incredible today.

Silva had a mare.

Rodwell had a solid debut. Lack of concentration cost us but he will learn.

Tevez, back to being Tevez the footballer thank god.

3 points. Ace.

 

[BusterPhillips]

A lot of rustiness out there today, need to put some hours in on the training groun.

Match scores:

Hart - 6

Clichy - 6
Kompany - 5
Lescott - 5
Zabba - 5

Yaya - 6
Rodwell - 5

Silva - 5
Nasri - 9

Tevez - 7
Augero - na

Balotelli - 6
Dzeko - 7
Kolarov - na

a 5 is harsh on rodwell

He was at fault for there firt goal, he looked ok though but think he needs to help out full backs more (ala Barry and Milner)

 

[Dirty Harry]

A sloppy attitude and performance which definitely will not please the manager. However Nasri was our better performers and we got the result despite a poor performance.

Quite right aswell, as much I can say well done to Southampton, we did ourselves no favours at all, bag of nerves everytime they attacked and very lackadaisical.

 

[RochBlue]

They were attacking, fast, passed well and a lot better than people made out.
We were sloppy in defense at times but I love what we did in the last 20 mins, Nasri was tireless and our engine, same for Yaya.

Rodwell apart from the mistake was simple and effective and will offer more going forward.

Well done blues!!!!!
