Martin Demichelis (continued)

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Mentioned a few posts back but it's down to a shift in positioning

Those extra yards he is afforded are the key, big pat on the back to the coaches and MDM himself, he could be the unlikeliest of heros and I love that!!!

If we get Mangala, wouldn't be surprised if he plays second fiddle to Demi for one year.

Pellers isn't going to ditch this guy lightly - and rightly so. It may be his last season at the summit though.

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..

So true. You can add Kolarov to that list as well. It takes around a year I think for most players to adapt, some do it quicker. Hard to believe Fernandinho was getting slagged off by some after a few games this season.

Tactical masterstroke! Kompany now plays as the deeper of the two and it is working like a charm!

Has anyone seen his reaction to Dzeko's opener against Palace? Proper clenches his fists.

Great turnaround from MDM - he's looking more confident and I think that benefits the rest of the defence too

Not sure what has hapened with Nasti's injury but this seems to be dragging on for months now? I know he wouldn't get back in the team with 3 games to go but I'm not sure where his future lies if we are prioritising another CB in the summer. We know that Lescott will go so I wonder if we will have 4 centre backs with Nasti and MDM as the back up players.

I can't see this happening.

Mangala will come in and take Demichelis' position off him within weeks. He's stronger, faster, younger and exactly what we need.

reminds me a fair bit of Pepe, with a bit of Vinnie and a bit of Sakho as well, though in between Sakho and the other two in terms of ball skills.

Right I'm happy to bet anyone here £1000 that he'll be BM player of the month for April.

Not if my machine politics campaign works and Rodwell receives the nod.
