Lucky to go in at 1-1 even if there's been little that Given's had to deal with. Just not quick enough on or off the ball for my liking and it does irk me how we play a predominately left footed player on the right and a right on the left

But apart from that, we're doing ok!

all you moaners wanna shut up and show the team some support for once?!

our team looks solid and is playing well. i like how we're passing the pall and keeping possesion alot more rather than big boot. richards is playing well so shut up!

come on city!

Solid?

Not really .......

a bit fortunate maybe.

Glen Hoddle's just hit the nail on the head in saying that we have to get our wingers on the correct wings , and more into play , to actually give Chelsea more problems ...... and stop allowing Chelseas full backs such a free role.

why exactly?

I have just logged on to say the same. Richards has no part to play in a Premiership team. He can't defend, he can't pass, cross and up front he gets in the way. We'd be better off with 10 men.

Exactly.

Slow, lumbering, no idea where to be positionally either when he goes forward or defends.

Admirable sentiments re support - but are you watching an old video re possession?

 

[80s Shorts]

a big change is required, we are far too negative, every pass and every free kick we get is being played backwards.
sit back at chelsea they will kill you.

Yes we are getting killed 1 - 1....

Whats the team?

I missed the first half, we playing well?

Just saw the Tévez goal, good skill but lucky...

good enough, were soilid at the back but could do with more purpose going forward a bit

Good, whats the team?

Better off with 10 men!? What a stupid comment, the lad isn't having the greatest of games, but he has showed on many occasions this season what a good player he can be, the other week acorrding to some Zabaleta should never wear a City shirt again! Some people on here need to get back to reality,all players have bad games! But to go back to your comments about we should play with 10 men is laughable. And to say Richards should be no where near a premiership team, is just as laughable. get some fucking perspective and dont post utter shit!

We need to be hitting diagonals at Malouda and put some pace on that wing. He is the weak link.

Fine line between genius and clueless, if we continue to just sit back and defend and lose then Mancini is going to be slated by everyone, however if we sneak a win on the counter then he could well be hailed as a tactical genius. I have no issues with the tactics and system, because we are away from home to the league leaders. If people thought we would go to Stamford Bridge and play 5 attacking players then they are seriously deluded.

I think if we contain and defend well we will get a result. All we need to do is when we have the ball get it up there and try nd cause them some problems too. Good half
