Martin Demichelis (continued)

[jimharri]

Totally different player to the man who came to us earlier this season. No qualms about him being in the side now.

 

[City_Sean]

Absolutely fucking magnificent.

 

[kaz7]

fantastic today

 

[standupifyouhatemanu]

Awesome, as was the unsung hero Garcia, both contributed over the last few weeks.

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

He's our best CB at the moment!

 

[MihaiCity]

he is fantastic atm he outshined vinny in the last couple of games well done mdm

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

He has been great for the last couple of months. Personally I think he was unfairly slagged for conceding a dodgy penalty to the best player in the world. Looked fantastic today against the usual Pulis bombardment

 

[Drewmanc]

Brilliant, just brilliant and has been for weeks now. Shook off the early nerves and showed why he's played at the top flight for years and years. Almost midfielder/ish in his composure on the ball. Well done Martin. Early season doubters take note. He is a player and a proper player.

 

[Rösler von Stretfordbömber]

He was playing well all year. Just had a couple of errors that blew up and got magnified a hundredfold by the media.

Every centre-back playing in a system like this will make errors. The real test of quality is in what they are doing match-in and match-out. The quality for MDM has been there all along. (And look at his match by match ratings at whoscored all year - that bears this out but the eyeball test to me always was pretty good as far as he goes)

 

[oakiecokie]

Nice to see the "get ridders" are now backing him.And so they should.Superb again today.

 

[kippaxblue76]

Showing his quality now he has settled, you don't win a few league titles with BM if your no good. Excellent player.

 

[yeah whatever !!]

This is why I never slag off City players..its can bite back..

Demichellis
Garcia
Dzeko

All these players get stick but have been an integral part in where we are right now..

 

[reznikov]

Hero. He's got a ponytail but he's alright, Demichelis Demichelis...

 

[dctid]

Did well still made a few silly mistakes but did well

 

[Blue Is the Opposite of Blue]

Minus the game against Barcelona, Demichelis has been more of a leader than Kompany on the pitch since the turn of the year.

Disciplined, organised, committed and 100% behind the cause. Go Martin.

 

[Benarbia]

Legend taken him a while to get used to the league playing really well now

 

[jimharri]

Legend taken him a while to get used to the league playing really well now

''Legend'' might be stretching it a bit, to be honest!

 

[bornblueegg]

I've stayed quiet about this situation, but MD is showing his qua lit when and where it is needed. wish fellow fans would lay off until the season's finished

 

[Damocles]

Lad is in belting form recently.

I think we need to recognise that it's good form rather than a "normal" performance though before we all get carried away.

I'm extremely proud of him though to turn it around in a media environment where he was a public laughing stock and many other players would have crumbled. It takes great mental strength and belief to do so and it's a credit to him as a professional and as a person.

I hope he sticks around for another few years even in the Vieira dressing room capacity if he fancies it instead of the MLS

 

[remember arthur mann]

Awesome again today, all over the place, possibly won us the match. Javi quiet but commanding, hope they both stay. Lets now get rid of the marginals and improve the squad.
