Just the usual armchair boo boys exaggerating the negatives and nitpicking. Thankfully their opinions on the internet mean diddly squat so one just learn to ignore them lol. BM tend to get overly self entitled and negative theses days so one has to adapt.
Mate I am usually positive but if you can tell me when he last put a good ball in never mind provided an assist I'd love to hear it because this is what I am told he is good at.
 
Kolarov's fault, or the number of Leicester bodies in there making it nigh on impossible to pick out a City player? I thought he was ok last night, and generally speaking he's a decent attacking full back (although not always the best defensively). Some of the criticism of him on here is ridiculous......and apropos nothing, him and Joe were virtually the only two players who could be bothered to come over and applaud us last night

Our tactics are to blame. Set-up to get it wide and put crosses in with only Aguero/Silva/Sterling/De Bruyne to aim at...So they have to be perfect and on the ground to be effective. We need to invest in a striker who is a mix of our current two, but taller.

A couple of his crosses were truly woeful and another that I recall inside a crowded box was not hit in the direction of any City player, as far as I could tell from my armchair.

He is though over criticized and is in fact one of the most consistent players in the league (Clichy just happens to be even more consistent) and, based on the player performance index, has been the league's best full back this season.

Last night actually, an excellent cross to the near post in the first half that Aguero attacked but a defender just got there ahead of him and knocked it out for a corner.

Yes he shanked a couple last night but I agree with the posters above, he mostly only has one target and four or five defenders to aim at and that's usually a smallish striker so lifting the cross isn't really an option.
 
It's pretty obvious what City are going to do when Kolarov goes forward and Sterling seems to only have in his head what he's been told which makes it even more obvious. So for a lack of players to be in the box at times must be infuriating for Kolarov when the opposition even know what's coming. However Kolarov is one dimensional, easily improved on and seems to be another who is either lauded as brilliant or deemed as shite. I'm in the middle, average player at this level who could and probably should be improved on.

I think he's been anything other than consistent this season, he's either very good, or pretty dire, defensively last night he was the latter. I have no idea how this player performance index is 'measured', but if he's the best fullback in the league, then it probably says more about the league than it does AK.

OK what about when Bony plays? Sorry but I am still waiting for the last time he put a really good ball in.
 
Unbelievable Kolarov whingers on here. He's a fucking top player.does anyone remember edghill.this guy is a premier league champion...He's won all the domestics..I rest my case.
