How about Rodwell for Yaya, who has been lazy and gash again

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Yaya should leave the lofted pass in his holster today.

Fernandinho passing is a bit lazy at times to put it politely.

Very politely

 

[Little by Little]

Is Bobby still the manager?

Yaya is our best player. One bad game doesn't degrade his contribution as a constant match winner in big games for the past two or three years.

No way...not only does he look totally unfit he's playing far too deep to affect the game.

He always looks totally unfit. It's just the way his body is. He looks totally unfit then seems to do something great. It confused me at first but I've just come to accept that that's the way he is.

His contribution for their goal is unacceptable whether he's a whippet or Giant Haystacks.

Not sure why we took Navas off - we now have no width and it's like watching last season's City again.

I think you'll find these days Yaya has many more poor and lazy games than he does where he effects it

Yeah, he does seem to have a big "swing" in between his good and bad games. But his bad isn't exactly awful and his good days he's world class.

Come off it.

Don't understand the harsh reaction, I didn't say he's a shit player. He has been on for only a few minutes and has misplaced multiple passes and dribbled into trouble more than once as well. Was just an observation that he was struggling a bit

He has been on the pitch for 10 mins ffs, what do you want from him?

To help us score? FFS, I AGREE WITH YOU HE'S ONLY BEEN ON 10 MINS. There's plenty of time for him to affect this game, all I was saying, in a game thread, is that in his time on the pitch he's made some pretty silly mistakes. It's tough sometimes to come on as a sub and get into a game, especially a game like this where there's such intensity. In his BRIEF 10 minutes, Nasri was not exactly getting it done, again, it was just an offhand observation.

We lack pace.

And I don't know what's up with Aguero these days.
