Match Thread | Man City vs Newcastle (29/10/14)

No, the manager cannot always expect an injury. That is not reasonable. He rotated the squad fairly well for this game and what happened cannot be predicted and was just incidental.

yeah, tell that now yaya has taken a hit

Players take a hit all the time that is football. Yaya is on the pitch playing and the chances of him or Silva getting injured in this game is no different from him or Silva getting injured three minutes into the derby or at west ham.As I said the fact that Yaya is still playing is also incidental and injury risks apply to every player (even the goal keeper ) so it is unreasonable to pick teams based on that because we will play the EDS team on that bases.

Indeed, we played Wigan last year who were a division below and everyone moaned about the team selection when we lost. There is no pleasing some people. We have one chance at this cup, we lose tonight and we are out. We lose or draw with the scum and we just win all the other games. Everyone on here is only flapping like mad because it's United.

not the first time we have suddenly started playing well just before half time... do it a bit earlier

 

[Rammy Blue]

Good first half, big improvement on recent weeks.

 

[Andouble]

imagine this team with a Guardiola or Mourinho-required work rate?
