James Milner

[chaddblue]

That's why he hardly ever gets picked and that's why England are a joke. Utterly dreadful

 

[asplund2]

SELL!

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

Seems to only really play well when we're underdogs or have our backs against the wall. Probably an English thing.

I like Milner but was poor tonight , like all our squad player didn't take his chance . Makes me angry when people said the would play him instead of Yaya ... He`s no where near Yaya standard.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Is that 3 wins in 9 now when he has started? Enough said. Back to his average best tonight

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Poor tonight but was expecting more after his excellent 45 min display at Anfield. Continues to make the simple look difficult and poor decision making all night I thought. That fucking cross with his left foot at the end was abysmal and summed up his performance.

 

[yayas trusty right foot]

He was awful tonight, just a complete lack of quality...

He is a sub at best..

 

[shemnel]

some players thrive on being sidelined and almost wound up, wiley coyote style, into a ball of energy that you can shock teams with. Milner is one of these, he just doesnt seem to be a starter.

 

[jaiguruKun]

Tried to beat his man too many times when he doesn't have the pace. Exactly the reverse problem to Navas, who doesn't do it often enough.

And that's why James never get's picked.

As an impact player from the bench he's great. But start him and play him for 90 minutes, and there's normally little or no end product.

TBH I can see another Barry situation here. He'll either run his contract down or City will try and sell him this Summer.

Brilliant v Liverpool. Awful tonight.

I don't get it.

My personal opinion is no Silva, The intelligence from David and James' desire to run into good positions was excellent on Sunday. Tonight, the one player capable of stepping up was Nasri and he was largely on the other side of the pitch. But I do not think Milner helped himself this evening as he was rather chaotic in his style with his head down rampaging style.

 

[ErnieBilko]

I can't see him starting again. Very bad tonite and that cross near the end just summed his game up today.<br /><br />-- Wed Apr 16, 2014 10:12 pm --<br /><br />I can't see him starting again. Very bad tonite and that cross near the end just summed his game up today.

 

[HelloCity]

Absolutely awful performance. As bad as I've seen from any blue this season. Absolutely nothing came off or worked well.

 

[Gabriel]

The cross in the last seconds with his left peg was hugely disappointing. He'd done so well to get there only to have no end product.

 

[The Chief]

Feel sorry for him. He was dire tonight but a part of me thinks he was trying too hard to impress, rather than simply playing, given that the manager doesn't rate him.

 

[nice neil]

I've said for a long time that Milner does let you down after working so hard to get into great positions. His choice of pass is/was shocking. He wasn't alone tonight though. We didn't half look ordinary without yaya and Silva. And Negredo is doing a good impression of wellbeck at the moment.

 

[Gray]

I was desperate for him to play but he was atrocious.

 

[citizen]

Runs his bollocks off and is shite at passing thats about it, another not good enough end of.

Brilliant v Liverpool. Awful tonight.

We've witnessed too much of this kind of thing - brilliant performances against top side and then days later, a bucket of shite!
