Match Thread | Man City VS AS Roma (30/09/14)

Maicon is their defensive liability - so Kolarov for Clichy is a MUST...

We need to expose the fucker, kinda like they exposed our left side in the first half...their right with Cole and Nainggolan is rock-solid...Navas is also the one to be taken out.

We are making Maicon and Totti look like spring chickens tonight

Dzeko off Milner on. Silva into the centre

Yea, and you have no aerial presence whatsoever...in the game where Dzeko is physically DOMINATING Roma..hopefully Pellers thinks otherwise.

45 minutes to save

his job. Lose this and Pellegrini will not be managing City next August.

Txiki will be watching this just like we are thinking where the fuck is the midfield? Yet again Pellegrini decides to take on a top team with just Fernandinho offering any sort of protection.

Kompany and Clichy look poor but its isn't their fault they are so exposed.

Someone on the bench needs to get Clichy off; he's like a rabbit in the headlights out there tonight.

I don't mean to get on any player's back, but Clichy has been dreadful all season. Unmitigatingly dreadful. Can't defend for toffee and offers nothing going forward. If we took him off and played with 10 men we'd be no worse.

How the fuck they aren't down to ten I don't know. The most nailed on red fucking card and he didn't give it. How can he give the pen but not the card.
The handball was deliberate too and that should have been a pen and a red. Dzeko is getting fouled every time he touches it, yet no yellows for them.
Shit refereeing. Why am I not surprised.

Shocking really. It's textbook red card.

 

[stony]

Fuck off Scholes,''That's the Roma fans you can hear'' ginger twat!

That was a sending off as well,Maicon last man.

I wonder if he heard the MKDons fans?

Every time the ginger **** is on tv he takes the opportunity to slag off city fans. I hope he gets the mother of all yeast infections up his arse and scratches it until his anus haemorrhages.

 

[Jack Wills]

It's all about applying pressure. We need to be closing opposition players down faster, we need to get an extra body in midfield to put theirs under more pressure, and we really need to develop a nasty win at any cost attitude.

That clear handball in the box, all that happened was a few of our lads held their arms out - remember the old rag and Arse teams that won stuff over and over again, they had 4 or 5 players screaming in the ref's face. It might not get the first decision but it sure as hell made the ref feel almost obliged to give the next one. We get fuck all marginal decisions because we're too nice. We need a winners' attitude, get in everyone's fucking face and scream til we get what we feel we deserve.

 

[RandomJ]

Heres my prediction based on every other game this season. He will make no changes at all, we will continue to get dicked, maybe even concede another goal and then around 60 mins he will make some subs.

Cracking first half. Two of Europe's top teams. Can understand resting Milner tonight but his industry will be crucial when he comes on in the second half. I would've played Mangala but okay after an intense week he probably needed a rest. Need to see more from Kun

Ref bottled the handball. That was a nailed on penalty.

Can I have some of your drugs. We are dreadful tonight, and that was never a peno. Shit game, we are playing within ourselves. Clichy is pointless player, Milner and Kolarov should have started and Navas is having no effect at all, so Nasri should be on to give us more control of the ball

We aren't playing at our best but it was a nailed on penalty
