Match Thread | Man City vs Wigan (09/03/14)

[domination]

Pellegrini watches on as we get outplayed by Wigan. Surprise surprise.

 

[Skashion]

I really really want these. Come on Pellers put a rocket up their arse.

Too many wage stealers in the team. Squad depth is a real issue. We pretty much have to play the first 11 every game, even against lower league opposition.

Impossible to go for 4 trophies with our lack of depth

LADS. The game has started!

 

[Revolver]

It may be that we pull this back but I can't remember since Spurs away since we last played well for a sustained period during a game. Our slow build up play is reminiscent of us at our worst with Bobby in charge.

Sadly without Kompany and Fernandiniho we look half the team.

And Negrado looks half the player he was.

But apart from this we are not doing too bad.

Demichellis completely ruined any momentum we had. We need to make a change at half time. Bring Kompany on for MDM and Zaba for Richards.

Don't think zab on bench. Richards is fucking awful nowadays.

Kolorov for clichy, silva for Navas and Kompany got MDM. 2 at half
Time and one at 70 if still losing.

Can see us losing this. Wigan have done a good job.

MDM shouldn't be in the the Wigan team how many competitions will he cost

No sense in going after the manager in this. The squad selection is rather obvious and we have enough talent on the pitch to handle a championship side. Even without Barca midweek it would make sense to try to give some key players a rest

 

[Stuuuuuu]

Still, they played a rare Smiths track when the half time whistle went, so that's something.

Our "second" string is no where near as good as our first team players. Fernandinho > Garcia, Zabba > Richards, Komps > Demi (me > demi).

We wont get away with this one. Wigan are more organised than Sunderland and it will take a little bit of magic to unlock the door IMO.
