James Milner

Two different players with different styles....

Milner was superb yesterday and his work rate is second to none. But it's not all work rate, he's got speed, certainly over a short distance, and can run past players which is something we've been lacking down the wing, esp right hand side.

I can't subscribe to the Milner vs Nasri view, we need them both.

I'd like to think Milner understand he IS important to this squad, incredibly so, and not getting a start is a high price price to pay, but shouldn't be seen as a reflection of his worth to us.

The ultimate utility player, not a jack of all trades, master of none, but an all round footballer, who understands football, defending,,tracking back, positional sense, and is a goal threat, Milner and Zaba are cut from the same cloth, both grafters who will die on their feet for the cause.
I hope Hodgson was watching,
 
That performance yesterday was no surprise at all to the blues who watch him week in week out.

Scared about this contract situation over Milner feel like he's a key part in our squad whether Manuel Pelligrini realizes it or not. We need him because sometimes overpaid Nasri can slack off and sit in his pool of money without putting forth effort on the pitch. Need him to push Nasri and help with the diaspperance of Yaya Toure and cover for injuries to our CDM. Come on City give him new contract and stop waiting. He's better than Ward Prowse or Morgan Scheilderiln
