And the majority on here will spend their Sunday watching their game hoping they lose. It's a 2 horse race so of course you will be watching the other team hoping they lose.

Really to this extent?

No . Rather stick pins in my eyes than watch those cunts . As for today frustrating as it was...
take that Le Fondre you rag twat
 
had one of the early attemps gone in we d have had a bagfull the longer it went the tougher it got.a win was needed and got. reading got what they deserved nowt.and mcdermott that was never a pen ya yas was and if your defender had tried to get the ball he might have.
 
Totally unimpressive performance. Barry chooses today to pop up with his one goal of the season for 2012-13 and gets us out of jail. Not expecting much better against a physical, spoiling Stoke team on NY Day. Nice to get 3 points today even though we were awful.
 
We don't have enough attacking midfielders to cut teams open enough. We have loads of defenders, loads of defensive mids, loads of forwards, and Silva Nasri Sinclair and Suarez (one is injured, one isn't good enough and one isn't old/experienced enough - making it ONE attacking midfielder in the whole squad at the moment who would play and do something).

No other big team, or even team in any top six, in Europe has anywhere near that few attacking mids. It needs addressing. Sell a forward, even two, and bring in one high level and one up and coming attacking mid and we'd cut these sides open who play like Reading did today.

Isco!

Other than that we ground something out of nothing and got the win. Reading got what they deserved with all the time wasting. We barely got what we deserved as we didn't play well, didn't play with any tempo, had too many players standing still and created no atmosphere whatsoever (could hear the players talking to each other all game).

Saying that, I couldn't be happier with the three points! :D

Stoke is also on the 7th consecutive clean sheet. Probably going to be a draw, seeing how difficult of a time we have scoring.

didnt everton score against them?
 
everything was wrong from the off, the team selection was a piss take out of reading and it nearly cost us.

mancini please note.

THERE ARE NO EASY GAMES IN THE PREM.
 
Almost dead for 90 mins... could breathe after GB's wonderful heading goal
Thanks Mr. Consistent;)

Merry happy City Christmas, everyone!
 
Well, as usual, Reading was going to pull a Mourninho/CL-Chelsea system, just as 90% of teams do against us.
The problem tofay, as usual, was our lack of pace,width,creativity and finishing.

We desperatly are a better team with - even a half arssed - Nassri.

Two Midfield+Yaya upfront never worked well last season, and it is still proving to be ineffective this year too.

Rekik was a waste of space on the left, he's got nothing to offer, not his fault as he is a CB.
Just enlights how shit is our bench since last season in that department : AJ, Kolarov, Sinclair, Milner.
Milner is the only one i rate, he's not a real wide player but yet a good all-round workrate powerhouse.

We'll have to play 3 fixtures during the next 9 days, could be dreadfull if we don't sort those problems in due time.
 
of course it looked like a foul by barry but the number of times reading players were play acting they got their come uppence.

ps the ref was poor, very poor, fell for their tactics good and proper.
 
I think people on bluemoon have too much of a tendency to come on here and start moaning (a revelation i know) after games and start spewing off numbers like "3 shots on goal" and what not. Take your eyes off the stat sheet and watch the game. We were sat in their box for about 80 minutes of the game. It's hard to score when teams put 10 in the box. Not to mention it's pissing down rain. Aguero looked excellent, Tevez made some good runs but had a tough time getting in finishing positions. Zab was excellent. Nastasic is a gem. Rekik got to make his freaking debut tonight and didn't f*** anything up. Silva looked excellent and did what he could with 10 men in his face. Javi I thought did well as well. Yaya had some trouble today but still came up with some good passes. We lacked some clinical finishing, but as much as we do score goals I am more than willing to allow some games where we have a tough time putting the ball in the back of the net. Reading's game plan was "keep them from scoring". They failed, it took awhile, but they failed. Still think mancini is the man for the job, he still gets more things right than wrong.
 
First half wasnt too bad, sergio coming deep and linking up with silva. again having non-attacking full backs hurt us as we kept putting poor crosses in. Very poor performance second half. Wrong changes from the mgr. ya ya appalling again.

But we won...
 
I've not read the 15 pages because I can guess that there will be a lot of negatives BUT:

THAT'S WHY WE'RE CHAMPIONS and that's why we will be Champions in June!!

Happy Christmas to everyone, have a great time see you on New Year's Day unless I see some of you at Sunderland or Norwich. :-)
 
Justice was done against a team who didn`t wish to do anything other than put eleven men behind the ball and waste as much time as possible.
I`m not normally one who has a dig at refs,but I`ll make an exception today.Shocking display from Dean !!
Well done young Rekik,who I thought had a great game,considering he`s not a natural full back.Another top performance from young Nasty again.
Reading !! Eat shit you twats !!
 
am impressed by Rekik
Milner is still better, but Rekik will be a good player as him in the near future
