Hope the girl in the piccy can multitask ;)

Well she's not got much ironing to do..

Is that Mr. Milner on the far right?

I can't make up my mind if it is or not

Too fat to be Jimmy Milner. Probably a hanger-on. Probably the young lady's bf.

I was thinking that, too, but couldn't be sure enough to satisfy myself.

I can be pretty persistent.

Re: Edin Dzeko legend

I just can't believe that some of City fans find hard to acknowledge Edin as a class he is. I can agree he did not run before ( not that he can run like Tevez or that is hes job but ok ,fair point) Now i see that he runs , he really love City from what i conclude by what he endure here and wanna stay , he still score goals no matter how much minutes he gets.But there is difference when he play more, hes more deadly then .Biggest prove is Negredo , Edin never had this kind of dry spell ( 5 month no goal and i think Negredo is class few bad games and few unlucky but he will be back) and he was not get nowhere near any criticism that Edin would get after one bad game . I get some don't like how he plays , yap hes surrounded with so much talent that he look sometime clumsy but he score goals , he score a bunch , he score in row and most importantly scores in big games when we need them the most . How someone can be a fan of the club and not pay respect ( at list enough to let him be ,yet some still play boo boys role ) to the man who gave him a reason to celebrate I guess no matter how you play. We did not become like rags, are we?! If we can have Kun , Messi , Ronaldo and Suarez as our 4 strikers i m up for it sell them all , but we score 156 goals i think we are well covered there .I remember when one statement of Edin was enough to make him the only player who complained about manager, but now seen by the statements of various players that it was in fact a row before him , only Dzeko publicly admitted. He did not through the manager tried to extort more money as some ( i m' so disappointed with it after this season, and to us new target to spit from other clubs, bizarre, birthday FFS), he just wanted to get the chance to play and could not find a common language with Bob, but who could in the season after Champion's year . Mainly I wanted to give my opinion, there are things I completely understand when people complain, I understood when they complained that it is not trying enough, and for me sometime looked soggy and that was reason to give him crap , but this now I absolutely do not understand. I just think that we are going on the line to become spoiled fans who just wanna wins and rant all the time on players like they are robots.

In part I agree. But even at times this season just gone his demeanour was really disappointing to see (November and December especially). Shoulders slumped, lack of effort, look on his face that says he wishes he wasn't playing. That's not just wrong expectations on fans' part because there is a really good player in there and when he's too meek to show it, he is very frustrating to watch.

But when he is in form and feeling confident he's a cracking striker! When he's in the groove he finds the determination to make the right runs and he has the confidence to express himself in his efforts at goal.

I can't describe how difficult that header was to score at Everton. I can think of only maybe an overhead kick that is more difficult to master and get on target than a header where you have to jump backwards to head. Not only that, he put it exactly where Howard couldn't save it. With Navas' opener at home to Spurs or Kun's opener at home to United; that was the most exquisite goal we scored last season.

But I always worry that you only get that from Edin when he's feeling good about himself and I always wonder when the next lull in confidence is going to crop up. Kun will score when he's half fit and off the pace, he'll also make intelligent runs and create space for others. When Edin's not feeling it, you don't get that from him.

Maybe that's a job for the manager and Edin himself to iron out. You can never stop improving, no matter what stage of your career you're in.

this is a dumb comment, but everytime i watch that header at everton away i kind of think howard reallllly didn't try to save it

to be fair it was still a great header, but yeah, the exaggerated dive makes me think howard let it in

It was unsaveable but I also think he believed it was going wide, so he initially feigned but then committed to the dive.

He was beaten either way, though.

unless they paid 35 million pounds there's no fucking way we'd sell him to chelsea, and probably not even at that much. it's insane. if they had a half decent striker they would likely have won the title, they had utter utter utter shit up top all year

I can't see why we'd think about selling him to them, £50m+ maybe
