David Silva...

[jollylescott]

It was obvious he tried to get a yellow to get a rest midweek.

I think he has planned the trip to Gran Canaria already.

 

[ManCitizens.]

I will wager he knew he was due to miss the game anyway through rotation and took his 1 match ban to get it out of the way ;-)

It's reset after the 1st, even if it wasn't surely the best game to miss would be Bburn. It was an individual decision to get New Year's Day off IMO

 

[King Geedorah]

Not sure why he was even on the pitch for the whole 90 minutes.

Kolarov for Silva and Milner into midfield made more sense to me.

He is tackling this year more than he was doing it in his whole City career. He is definitely putting more effort in defensive duties this season and bookings are result of it.

Their player was bursting dangerously into our half, fair play to Silva for taking him out.

Just let me say - Great , great player. Enjoy your break Merlin

Milner had a minor injury

Ah I didn't realise.

At last, the correct post.

One for the team, nowt wrong with that.

True and it was a player who 5 minutes before had clouted Silva and I think it was a bit of payback!
