Match Thread | Audi Cup | Man City vs AC Milan (31/07/13)

[BlueMo']

Just got in from work at 1 up, then sat here drooling for another 4 goals.
Some lovely quick forward play, i think our "defence" at that stage stopped thinking altogether.
Not bothered too much because that won't be our starting back 4.
It's a pre season friendly after all. good to see Navas and Jovetic settling well.

All the 1st team back four missing. :-)

 

[bluemoon32]

It's just your typical pre season kickabout

 

[Rascal]

Some of the overreaction on here is embarrasing.


Its a fucking friendly. The score is totally irrelevant.

Can't believe we've seen eight goals already , it's hard to keep track of it all ....... i've had to bring out a trusty old friend for the second half !

 

[jimharri]

Nasri coming on; that should stiffen up the defence!

 

[Blue Haze]

Garcia still playing CB?

 

[Theengelbert]

We should seriously sell Garcia while he still has market value. He isn't good as a cover or anything. He's pretty much useless.

Agreed! He's a Spanish international (somehow) I'm sure he would be easy to sell for £10+m

 

[AD4]

Replace Garcia with Kompany and this would still be 5-0

100% this.

Could say the same about Milan and any of their defenders.
Abate in particular but also Mexes and Zapata who are significantly more experienced then the no marks they've got atm. As well as the keeper.

 

[NQCitizen]

It's easy to slate the defenders because they aren't first choice but could any of our defenders play that high a line effectively?

No. Try telling people here that though...

If we try this high line in big games then bluemoon had better get working on a new first XI scapegoat.

Seriously if you're just concentrating on Garcia - be worried.
