We deserved to win the game, but we did not do enough offensivly to warrant 3 goals.
to score goals you have to create thus there was nothing lucky about scoring from a corner that we created from an attack and all so being given a penalty from which johnson created so i find it strange that you say we were lucky or not creative?
My point was about the corner, you don't have to playing well to score from a set piece (see Blackburn).
We deserved to win that game 1 maybe 2-0. So little creativity we had..<br /><br />-- Mon Aug 30, 2010 12:23 pm --<br /><br />

But we did do enough to score three goals and we did score three goals...

We made chances, we just didn't finish them.
If we had taken Micah off and put Zab on we may well have come away with a point. If Joe had got closer to the ground he may have saved the pen. All Ifs. The reality is we missed a sitter and 2 other clear chances and they got a scabby pen in the last minute.
Nothing to do with Italian negativity or 3 dms. Just football.

Go in at half time 2-0 up and it would have all been different, but shit happens, that's football. As long as it doesn't happen more than once or twice we have to move on and look to what went wrong second half to make sure it doesn't happen again.
Danamy said:I think he done the right thing by starting with the same side after a brilliant display against the dippers...........i think a few might of questioned him if he didn't.
I just hope that he's learnt from yesterday and during a game he can have the foresight to revert to 4-4-2 when needed and not persevere with the same formation all the time as we'll get found out pretty quickly.
Yesterday for me it was crying out for Toure to come off as i thought he had a cracking first half but i think he run out of steam in the second half (maybe still adjusting to Prem pace) push Milner in the middle as he wasn't getting any joy on the flank and has bundles of energy which we needed in the middle to gain control of the game, then bring Ade on to partner Tevez up top for the last half hour.
It's going to be horses for courses this season with formation in certain games and i just hope Mancini has the balls to change it during a game if needed when it's not working out?
I agree entirely.
Barry to left back and Silva for AJ were the wrong moves. Yaya was out of stream by 60 mins and Milner to midfield with Barry was the way to go. swp and ade on for Yaya and de Jong
The Fixer said:Mancio said:Adebajor ? after what he told the press a few days ago I must admit that if I was mancini I would not have brought even on the bench.
Ok forget about what he said etc why not use 2 forwards against sunderland?
yea, should be bellamy, fookin Jo still here, mancini is a prick about that
