Kolarov played out of his skin tonight

[BigBlueNick]

Kolorav has fantastic. Agreed!

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

For someone who is supposed to have a gem of a left foot he doesn't have that many assists and hasn't scored that many goals.

4 goals and 6 assists isn't too shabby for a full back IMO. For comparison Richards has 1 goal and 7 assists, Clichy 0 goals and 1 assist.

But Richards doesn't take any corners or direct free kicks neither does Clichy and neither of them came with the label of a dead ball specialist.

Oh and as Tolmie says, this prick cost us £17m, god knows how many goals and points in comparison to Richards and Clichy who cost us fuck in the scheme of things.

How about this - Kolorov is the worst left back I've ever seen to grace a city shirt!

Sorry, but Wayne Bridge takes that particular biscuit and he cost £12m!

I see nobody has even mentioned Kolarov's disgraceful conduct last night answering and swearing back at Mancini in the second-half?

If thats Kolarov playing out of his skin then he is worse than I thought

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

He's gash - anyone stating otherwise knows fuck all

What game were you watching?
Other than Aguero, Kolarov was by far the best player on the pitch the second half. He was excellent down that left wing causing problems for them every time he got the ball.
His best game in a City shirt.

Argue all you like, he's wank, i'll repeat so it manages to infiltrate the density - HES WANNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

what game was i watching? Fuck me

giving away goals and being shit defensively ......does that really make him a bad left back though? ;-)

what about the amazing free kicks lol

 

[pee dubya]

Just me that thinks we have unrealistic expectations of the modern full-back? Got to be strong, fast, high stamina and preferably tall but also agile. Got to be able to pass well, cross and dribble. Got to be responsible at tracking runners, marking, tackling and heading.

It must be the most demanding position on the pitch surely? Yet...it's not the one that attracts the most talented players, so realistically, what are the chances of filling the position with players that meet our expectations?

I'm assuming you don't go or you sit behind a goal. Kolarov played the second half in front of where I sit, and he was dragging us forward every time he eventually got the ball. His desire was far greater than that of most. Whilst providing quality, he also provided shape wide and an attacking force, as did Richards.
Kolarov is a decent player, not brilliant I admit but questioning his attributes & effectivness are just daft. Assists are very subjective. Whilst not getting an assist for many goals we have scored, Kolarov has played a key part in many goals. As he did last night.

Is Kolarov worse defensively than Baines, Cole, Evra or Clichy? There is no evidence to suggest he is. Yes he makes the occasional mistake, who doesn't? You mention Lescott, he was a fault for more goals in the first month of the season than Kolarov has been since he joined. Don't get me wrong, I love Lescott and think he's class, my point is, everyone makes mistakes. Even Kompany and Hart. How can people point the finger at Kolarov for our elimination and not Hart? His mistake cost us every bit as much. Hart palming the ball into play has cost us how many goals? All players make mistakes. If you didn't see Kolarov's desire to win last night, and the impact his crossing was having on the game, then I'm suggesting you were either not there or know very little about football.

Kolarov defensively is good, there is no evidence to suggest otherwise. His free kicks are very dangerous, his corners too.
I know you're going to come back with but he hits the first man, or how many free kicks has he scored? If he scores 3-5 free kicks a season that is a decent total especially when he only plays half the games. How many goals/assists does Bains get? Dani Alves get? Maicon get? You will find they get similar or less to Kolarov and all play in a defences that concede far more.

You seem to be a typical fan, moan at everything, fail to see any type of bigger picture. I wouldn't be surprised if you were the buffoon sat behind me slagging Mancini for bringing off the woeful and uninterested Johnson for De Jong. I'm guessing you love the 442, get it forward quickly, get bloody stuck in, shoot on sight policy that unfortunately lingers throughout the stadium.

i can hear you now, shoooot when the ball is 35 yards from goal.

he's a left midfielder, not a full back for me.

his crosses are brilliant but he switches off when defending a lot.

 

[salford blue 62]

i thought he was even worse than normal last night.
