Community Shield Official Post Match Reaction Thread

really hurts losing matches, even if its just the CS, especially if its a derby match..

Yaya was awful, you could see that he wasn't half-arsed about fighting for the ball
Last minute mix-up between Clichy and Kompany was something I hope never to see again.. Dzeko kept losing the ball and just couldn't control the ball in the air, though you could see he was trying hard up front..

And what was Mancini thinking bringing on Barry at a time when we needed to continue applying pressure on Utd?? Seems the only way to stop them is to keep attacking, and then using our defence to mop up their counter-attacks...midfield needs to do much much better than that...

we also seriously require a free-kick/corner-taking specialist... most of the set-pieces we had were squandered (except for the one leading to the first goal)... really need someone to consistently deliver the ball to the areas as pre-planned before the free-kick/corner...

oh well, i hope this will serve as a kick to our back sides reminding us not to be too complacent...we've got the whole season ahead of us...

Re: Beaten ok, but where did 4 minutes injury time come from?

No excuses, we were given a lesson unfortunately today. But seriously where did 4 minutes come from? With them you just know it's coming regardless of the actual stopages.

4 substitutions in 2nd half, goal celebrations, stoppages. 4 mins about right

Great day out, City were shit, United deserved it, don't give a fuck and roll on Swansea.

My thoughts exactly.

Oh look on the bright side folks.....I just heard Roberto Mancini is looking for a new house in Manchester........ nothing too extravagant though.Just a 2 up, 3 down :-)

Let's be honest .......

if we'd scored the all important third goal after half time they almost certainly wouldn't have come back from it ...... but we got far too complacent at the back and gifted them the Smalling goal , due to rank bad marking ... and that set the rags up.

The rags were glad to hear the half time whistle , but we failed to build on it ....... and that's why we lost this game ........ that , and the fact , that Kompany completely forgot how to deal with a ball in the final minute !

But the MAIN problem , right from the word go , was that we were carrying one or two 'passengers' out there today , who certainly didn't give their best in this game ... no doubt about that !

Granted, the winner came in injury time (a-fucking-gain), but we could still be playing now and wouldn't have pulled it back to 3-3. We never looked a goal threat today, even when we were 2 up.
