I agree with the OP. Everytime he has the ball I get the feeling he's gonna do fuck all with it.

FFS blues (are you thou) he's not played for a couple of matches then gets launched in at the deep end against Stoke clearly not an easy game to play in and now some of you are slagging him NOT GOOD AT ALL let's all pull together and slag te ref instead who was shocking first half TW@T
It's depressing how quick some City fans are to write off our own players. He's not set the world alight yet, and wasn't great today, but he worked hard and didn't go missing.
He'll come good I'm sure. In the meantime it would be nice, albeit unlikely, if some fans got behind him rather than dismissing him after 12 games for the club.

Not to continue the slagfest, but I think this morning (australian time) just showed Milners lack of technical ability outside of being a competent winger. In a more pivotal role he was so exposed, every touch more important than usual. I think even team mates were starting to get a little restless with him and there were more than a few times in the final 20 or so where he was waving and screaming for the ball but never received. Missed Yayas' strength, safety in the middle and power on the ball.

I really cant believe some of our fans at times. There has always got to be a scapegoat. Man to man we have a good a squad as anyone. Everyone needs a bit of time to bed in and some players are still in the early days of there City careers. Milner is a quality player who knows the Premiership inside out already, he is a very important squad player and im sure he will flourish if given time.

For fucks sakes... £50-150k a week (correct me if im wrong) and people say give him time?? Its been 12 games, if he wants to earn his fucking money then belt up and start playing. Do a shite job earning that wage and you would be sacked.
He's had one good game and that was against Liverpool. When I used to play for my local club football on a sunday morning and I played shite, I would get dropped to the bench and be told either up my game or deal with sitting on the bench.
Silva came over with no premier league experience at all yet he's been our best player lately, Milner has had plenty of time to find his game. You don't sign players giving them time to get used to playing with the team... he could be off at the end of the season.
Its nothing to do with simply not finding form... just lack of effort, he put 10x more effort in at Villa than he does here. Its a shame our starting 11 is usually picked based on the players price tag than their form... otherwise Milner wouldnt start and AJ would.

With the greatest respect, that's nonsense. Milner worked harder than anyone else on the pitch for City today. Granted, a lot of stuff didn't come off but to accuse him of a lack of effort is incredibly unfair.
