Official Aris v Man City Thread

Well what have we learnt from that half

Barry is a sluggish idiot

Dzeko couldmt hit a cows arse with a banjo

Tevez is determined to be a lone warrior

SWP should be busting a gut to prove he's worthy of a startingnplace but keeps running into dead ends

Silva is still class but not much happen in for him

yaya needs to pull his finger out

Barry off mario on for me

 

[Akai]

maybe we will see Zab or Vinny in midfield?

Barry and YaYa look exhausted to me.

dzeko may be good and turn out great but at the moment Tevez is one of the best strikers in the world. Playing him anywhere except center forward is stupid.

Agreed.

good half for us.

Its not a good half though, these are there for the taking, ignore their home record it means diddly squat frankly, we are way too slow in everything we're doing.

They are at best League 1 standard, and this team should be putting them away comfortably.

We concede one daft set piece goal given away, and we'll struggle because they will bring a bus to CoMS win draw or lose.

Kolarov and Dzeko off , Zaba and Mario In

This.

Far to slow all over the pitch. We have the quality and the strength but they appear to playing to very specific and dare I say cautious instructions!!! get into them FFS

My dad always said 'the only way to score tonight lad is if you have a bit of thrust in your ball movement' I never quite understood him but I think that he means we should be fast and quick to penetrate aris.

Fairly pleased so far, obviously it's a tough place to go, Aris are pressing hard from the front but keeping compact and organised at the back. It's going to be difficult to break them down without overcomitting and leaving ourselves open to the counter (which will be their exact plan).

Keep probing in a controlled manner, just a touch sharper in the attacking positions and i think we'll get a goal or 2.

 

[AdamoTheGreat]

tepid first half. i hope we pick up some energy and start taking some more shots and putting a few away.
