Official City v Fulham thread

[citytillicry65]

went to the game today and I like the other City fans were very disappointed - sure a point isn't a bad result but Fulham were there for the taking especialy after our surprise goal. It didn't look like we wanted it enough and sadly Superman and Sweep didn't have their shooting boots on. So many passes went sideways or into touch, there was no movement off the ball and the number of misdirected hoofs up field. Time and again we gave them far too much space... My 5 a side team would get an earful if we played like that. What a missed opportunity. Very, very poor. Only Zab and Hart should be paid this week.

Watched the highlights on Sky. High intensity, physical game that you would not expect from a Fulham v City encounter

Fulham have a reputation for a passing game. Either they've changed under Roy Hodgson, or more likely they thought that City's 'fat cats' would not be able to handle it. We did. We were well organised, and although there weren't that many efforts on goal - it was a game we controlled throughout

If you expected City to win comfortably then I can see why you might have been disappointed, but why why would you expect that when Fulham have lost 1 at home all season, and have just drawn at Liverpool and Villa

Is that a new saying ?
Because its fucking shite

Why is Hart getting a thrashing?

Best on ground -- Zab

I thought SWP had a poor game, even where he was playing.

Hart-8
Zaba-9
Dunn-7
TBH-8
Everyone else-5/6
Hughes reckons Ball did a great job so he was probably unfit.
SWP was definitely unfit. Superman needs this week off badly.

Thoroughly enjoyed the game, apart from - of course- the frustration at not capitalising on that early goal. To be honest, I would have taken a draw before the game started given our ever-incresing injury list. I think Hughes is right not to risk Robinho too much, better getting him properly fit rather than fucking him up.

Hart, TBH and Zaba were all great. Dunnie was a real source of strength. Big Vincent was getting stuck in. Shame that Garrido was injured, as this left us with the painfully limited Ball, who only seems to pass in reverse.

Speaking of which, it was a bit frustrating to see the defence constantly passing the ball backwards since there was very little movement in front of them.

Not particularly worried as yet, given the injuries and the oncoming transfer window when I'm sure we'll strengthen.

Sorry to hear the inflatables were confiscated.

Last of all, to the handful (I'm glad I can say it was just a handful) of 'fans' at the back of the stand doing the 'Munich' chants: you're a bunch of twats.
