City v Stoke Post Match Thread

[MaxCityBlue]

Unfortunately we're still clueless when it comes to breaking teams down that park the bus. So under the circumstances it makes for an even bigger win today. Our next game may well result in silverware so our performance today will be a far and distant memory.

Just going to assume Dzeko converted his chance.

Care to explain what the fuck that is supposed to mean?

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Negredo needs a rest especially with his shoulder injury. He'd be rested if aguero was fit. Got to be careful he doesn't burn out, and now with jovetic being injured AGAIN makes it even worse.

So I don't think he's lost form he's just knackered imo and deserves a good rest.

Yaya is God. That's all.

 

[Damien10]

Call me crazy but on current form, I would play Aguero, Silva, Nasri, Navas when Aguero returns. With Silva playing just of Aguero.

Yeah, that sounds good considering the current form of Dzeko and Negredo and Jovetic's new injury.

The injury was taken into consideration as I think Jovetic has done well. Dzeko and Negredo could definitely benefit from time on the bench.

he would rather not face the reality...and i know where he's coming from

 

[kinkladz-ade]

Dzeko was so bad today even the fanboys cant defend him and this is an awful time for Negredo to be off form.
But Aguero will come back next week and all will be right again in the world.

A win is all that matters. Didn't really expect a spectacle as only one team was playing football. Glad it's out of the way as the team still look jaded.

 

[thomasobDK]

wow, 3 points from the worst performance of the season. we played unintelligent and unconcentrated for most of the match. we look tired and a little bit lacking in confidence imo. pretty much every player underperformed. but still stoke deserved nothing from today, they parked every bus in the country and that never deserves points!

 

[cucumberman]

Nicked it and happy with the 3 points.

But We look frightened of what the future holds. Our play seems to be tense now.

I guess as the expectations of firing on four fronts have loomed, we have to tread through a new level of mentality.

 

[City Raider]

cant believe anyone's surprised about performance level

they'd have been so pumped up for barca there was always going to be a come down

great result

Dont let Dzeko anywhere near wembley next week

Negredo shouldn't even get on the bus then if that is how you evaluate performances.

you think Negredo was worse?

Time for Manuel to give them the Joe Hart treatment. Hopefully it will make the pair of them hungry again. Negredo is a strange one, I still think he's not fully over the shoulder injury. Dzeko however he's always had the touch of Robocop.

 

[Sunny Coast Blue]

As shit as Dzeko was, Negredo didn't touch the ball for the first 25 mins. Who has turned these two into this level of performance, bizarre.

 

[Shirley]

worst game for us ever...and its been been getting progressively worse for months now....MP stuck with him over Negredo?....why?

Negredo has been worse the last few weeks. Dzeko wasn't as bad as people have made out, I've seen him play worse for City than today.

have to disagree mate....he barely had one touch of the ball that was positive...touch like a rapist and couldnt hit the target if his life depended

Totally disagree, perhaps you left very early.

I didnt see Negredo miss from 2 yards to an open goal. Summed up his performance; horrible.

LMAO! unfair on Robocop tho.
