deluded or what

Mufc-legends: Not strictly true, Bolton had the better chances for the first 30 minutes, City did get on top possession terms but the first half was even in chances and Boltons chances were clearer cut. It was 3 shots to 4 first half, the reason City dominated possession is because they responded to Boltons pressing with what can only be called outright assault, basically they lunged, stamped, elbowed and kicked themselves into full dominance. Even so, credit to Bolton for spells even second half they looked like scoring, could have easily scored a couple more. Jaskelainen made tow very poor mistakes for two of the goals, not like him at all. A draw would have been fair and well earned for Bolton considering the way City played

As an opposition supporter, I wouldn't say you "lunged, stamped, elbowed and kicked" your way into controlling the game. I think some of our play was dirty but you gave as good as you got. You have some big lads in your team and they're not soft. Yes, Jussi made a huge mistake with your first goal, your second goal was a great goal so I'm not sure he could have done anything with that. Your third goal was Knight's error. You deserved the win overall. You did, however, withstand periods of pressure from us and I do think we played well overall. Against another team at the'bok, we may have earned a point, but on balance, considering you'll certainly challenge for the title this year, I don't think we did too badly, and I was pleased with us yesterday. Aguero didn't have his shooting boots on and on another day those terrible misses would have gone in, so we can count ourselves lucky for that one. I think it was a good game, but I don't think we fell apart, which was what I'd feared previously.

Anyway, good luck for the rest of the season (except against us!) :)
fare comments i dont think anyone would say you wernt init. i was happy to hear the final whistle put it that way. i was talking to friends on the way out and we all seemed to agree that you would be a good team this year and get at least 7th

Cheers, I hope you're right but can't see it myself. Was happy with what I saw yesterday though, although you had the better of the play I think we fought back well at times. Hopefully the Reebok roar (well more of a squeak) will be back but we shall have to see!<br /><br />-- Mon Aug 22, 2011 2:54 pm --<br /><br />

the trouble is bootem wont tried that hard against the scum or anyone else for that matter and you know it !!

Er, no offence but what on earth is that meant to mean?
 
Every time i've seen Kevin Davis play against us, i've wanted to be brought on as sub so i can cahllenge for the ball like he does and break his cheekbone.

Other than a fantastic challenge on silver, i thought Bolton were dirty and were allowed to push the boundries much more than City were. Infact i didn't see Davies challenge for a single ball fairly, yet more often than not, Kompany was peanalised for having a Kevin on his shoulders?

When they went forwar,d Bolton looked good, Petrov will provide and chip in with a few this season and Coyle looks to have moulded a team, especially impressive considering he's lost two players in pre season to leg breaks.
