City Vs QPR Post match Thread

Really missing Aguero and Barry.

Garcia could be a god sent

He can be "god sent" or can be a "god send" but not "a god sent".

 

[lancs blue]

why no Clichy lads. I don't understand…

some insight on this would be much appreciated.

It depends how long he was away with his new baby, if he wasn't fully involved in training this week then Mancini would have been reluctant to start him.

seems convenient for you to emphasize my saying how you don't like dzeko and completely ignoring the fact that your Inzaghi comment was as stupid as it can get, which was the point I was mostly referring to...

Because it was daft. Inzaghi will never go down as "one of the greats". Ask 10 people to name the 50 greatest strikers ever and he'll be maybe 2 lists. That's the point, people thought Inzaghi was great until they watched him. In reality, he had good movement to find good positions but his finishing was poor. He needed several chances to score, every single game. He was not a man you could rely on to bury the ball in the one chance you had in a high pressure game.

anyway I concluded that you don't like Edin as a player (not as a person as you seem to have concluded) simply because all you've been saying all night is how shit he is and went to great distance to bring out all the negative stats you had about him...

Yes, those two posts that I made criticising him for giving the ball away is obviously me calling him shite all night. And there's no such thing as negative stats. There's just stats. Dzeko gave the ball away 16 times today. This is a fact. I'm sorry it affects your world-view so badly, but you'll have to learn to deal with it.

how about bringing something positive out after this win, because in today's performance he had far more positives than negatives...

Because I post on here to discuss City, not all sit around and suck each other off?

my god, edin slagged again?

scored
had a goal headed off the line
Totally ignored by Kolarov for a tap in
Milner with a horrific cross when he's in 10 yards of space on the back post

It would not have taken that much different for him to have four goals. And his hold up play and touch were in fact better than usual.

i just don't get it.

I hope he 'frustrates' you with a goal and an assist each ane every match.

This is a stupid argument. Scoring goals doesn't mean you had a great game if it took you 5 chances to score it. Inzaghi made an entire career on missing 10 chances and scoring one, then the world declaring him brilliant.

And that is the least assity assist ever. You are basically saying "let's hope he completely fucks up his shot bad enough that it can be mistaken for a cross every game"

Whatever you think we lose the game without the goal and this assist

 

[Neil McNab]

Rodwell doesn't do much, does he? I know its abit harsh, but he needs to offer a hell a lot more if he wants to get near the first 11

Seems to be getting in the first 11 and doing quite a lot, are you a hive of activity?

so City to you is all about negatives...nice :)

I will not be able to sleep tonight it really has affected me so much...I've got kids to feed far more important things in life than sitting looking up stats all day...

I don't know how much you know about football but getting into great position is more than 50% of scoring and Inzaghi was the best at that...he scored shitloads wherever he's been and even you don't believe in the things you said about him...he's a born scorer and one of the all time greats...

and as I am accepting your stats and your opinions, be kind and accept the fact that I don't agree with you...

Was difficult to judge too much for me today because I watched the first half on my phone and the second on a marginally better screen. I thought we looked profligate both in attack and in defence. Tevez, Silva, and Yaya stood out but then the three of them are world class. Not sure what's going on at the back. If anyone who went to the game has a view be interesting to hear it.

Whats missing at the back is BARRY!!

The way he reads the game and protects the back 4 is very cruicial to us

we are missing barry and to a lesser extent NDJ from the season before last, last season he did not get much game time though.

 

[Neil McNab]

Was listening on Talkshite whilst putting the kids to bed.

What happened? Did he storm off?

It's really not good that he's still not signed his contract.

Slammed the ball down when his number went up and just looked pissed off as he walked off the pitch.

He also showed mancini the finger and cursed him in brazilian.:)

No such language as Brazilian, they all speak Portugese, doubt if Silva does though. On the up side he does have a middle finger!
