Today has shown us yet again to play for 90 (+) mins.
How many times in the last 2/3 years have they fukers scored a last minute winner,4...5..
Started very poor for the 1st 20 mins,then total brilliance.
2nd half was a disaster tbh.
If we play like this for the rest of the season,we'll win fuk all.
We may think we're there.....we're far from it.

always said this - what we saw today was a team of individuals play poorly against a team of individuals whom play as a team and are all decent footballers despit what some people on here seem to think
 
Re: Calm The F**k Down

I will not calm down after throwing away a two goal lead against the rags no this is way to big to be ignored, it wasn't a friendly and we need to sort ourselves out, we have a problem with late goals and defending free kicks, corners and throw ins. A few of our players showed no interest today and we lacked focus and concentration, I expected a lot more from Balo, Milner, Vinny, Yaya Toure and Nigel today
But we can still improve but we need to show more focus and not get over-confident in future games
Robbie will not get sacked and my opinion of him has not lowered I still think he is the right manager but he needs to change his tactics again
The future is still blue

Will everybody just calm down!
I am nothing but confident for this season and feel we CAN push for the title.
We have the players and the manager to do so!
Everyone has a bad game, its just a shame ours was against them lot today!
Mancini is not going to get sacked over that and i have full confidence in him.
Let's put it behind us and look forward to smashing 5 past Swansea
C.T.I.D

deluded

we got shafted by Rags second string in the second half

We dont have the players certainly not the attacking players

It's up to you mate, if you want to keep yourself in a heightened state of anger and depression, no one is stopping you, but what good it will do you in the long run?
 
Just got back, good day if not a weird one. First half we were lucky but everyone was buzzing and we became laid back.

As the 2nd half started us, the fans have never been so flat, you could hear a pin drop. The difference between the 1st half and 2nd was staggering.

The lads really needed us to give them a lift but we didnt was abit of a shame but I still think we are in for a great season.

On a sidenote what a load of rag twats in the corperate section behind us, anyone see all that?

i hope aguero can score from inside his own half ,the astonishing lack of service to the strikers is making a steady stream of the poor sods look inadequate !
mancini is reverting to the ultra defensive style he likes so much , how many throw ins and free kicks of ours end up with us under pressure , i still say hes not the man

Like the "scorpion and the frog"no matter who we acquire mancini will not change his tactics. He can't help it its in his nature!
If the truth be told I doubt he's not the only manager who could have achieved the success of last season with the squad we had. I'd venture to say had he been more positive we could have won the title.
 
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.
 
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 :-)
 
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...

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

Grow up you rag
 
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 !

Still don't know why you haven't been banned you rag, stop baiting and go on one of your own forums
 
Re: Beaten ok, but where did 4 minutes injury time come from?

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.
