Need Navas on the pitch and KDB needs to move centrally or to the left. He's too isolated on the right.

Well that was a bit uneventful. Reminded me a bit like the derby at our place where KOMPS nodded one in from a corner. We look a bit off the pace. Our passing is not as crisp as usual. Our movement is poor and positioning woeful. Bony picking the ball up on halfway isn't ideal for a start. Come on Pellers get in to them at half time and spark us into life!!!​

Can someone pls tell my why bony is playing game after game for us... He is useless. Sell him back to swans....... Better playing with 10 men insted of him......

We look very solid - a decent away performance so far. Wish Sterling would look to stay on his feet more, their defenders are very suspect when teams run at them, he would draw fouls rather than Clattenburg thinking he is diving. Hopefully keep them to zero chances and take it from there. Without Silva and Sergio we have to play smart.

Thought bony has had a decent half,good hold up play and touch,don't think pellegrini will change it unless we go behind,I would bring navas on for sterling,and if still 0.0 with twenty to go bring on nacho for bony...

Tight match all playing well, can't think what to change other than a bit of valium for people on here ;). Patience, we'll do it. Bony & Toure partnership not as bad as some flappers suggest. Pretty even so far in terms of chances and likelihood to score, but my bets on City.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

a little cagey that half, but they haven't had a shot on goal anyway. Had a few chances notably that last one near the end of the first half by toure from a kdb ball.

we are missing silva and kun and it is showing as kun occupies the 2 cb more that bony does. Silva obviously sees the end ball before it materializes

we look comfortable though

Bony off, Sterling through the middle, Navas on the right?

Ru watching the sane game. His touch and hold up play has been awesome. Some people are so fickle

Wow. Without bony that ball is coming straight back every time. He is giving a target for the clearance and his hold up play has been excellent.

 

[I Hart Man City]

They'll be going route 1 to the elbowing spitter soon enough. Navas on for Fernando or Bony with Toure dropping deeper would be good.

Bony has linked play well, some nice touches, can people get off his back

Yes but sadly in the midfield area.
