Fernando ......I cringe when I see that name on the team sheet ......

That midfield pairing sure has pace

Grafters like Fletcher and Gardner to run rings around them.
 
Never a better 'opportunity' to play Silva where he does his best magic but yet again he's shunted to the wing?

Just don't see that line up having the energy or the cohesion.
 
Having Lamps in the pitch instead of Dinho or Milner is like being 1 man down, as much as i respect him for his career's accomplishment , he doesn't have the legs anymore to play a full 45min leg.
 
West Brom's backline has 4 natural centre backs.. hopefully Lescott has a bad day.
 
On the plus......that defence should not change now and Bony gets an opportunity,albeit in a two,where neither him or Aguero operate at their best imo.
 
Now I understand Fernandinho may well be tired, Milner too. But surely Silva is too and he is playing.

Lampard and Fernando. Dear oh dear.

I'm fucking speechless mate. It's almost like Pellegrini's taking the fucking piss now. Lampard and Fernando in the middle, the slowest, least mobile pairing in all 4 divisions, when we need the polar opposite, and Silva in his least effective position on the left. There would be some solace if he were on the right, cutting in and reverse passing it, but down the left he's a fish out of water. Truly unbefuckinglievable
 
Fernando and Lampard in the midfield...

Has Pellegrini had a stroke?

Putting Fernando in midfield is a recipe for disaster but pairing him with Lampard from the off is bordering on career suicide. You have one of the worst midfielders I've seen play in our side since the takeover paired with someone that can barely run.

I am not usually this negative but that decision is unfathomable.
