Spuds v CITY - Official Match Thread

steve claridge: "These are the kinds of performances that get you in trouble as a manager"

"balance isn';t right, personnel isn't right, they never believed they could win at all"

can't disagree with that

Robinho went straight to the dressing room, what does that tell you?

His mobile going its his mate Ronaldinho apparently Jose walked out on Inter and he's heading for talks in Dubai

Well how about something like, its not working, Ade is awful tonight, lets take him off for petrov and play Robinho in the middle up front.
He just has no imagination or tactical awareness, every sub is often like for like.

THE WHOLE TEAM IS PLAYING SHITE AND THAT IS BECAUSE OF HOW HUGHES PREPARES AND SETS THEM UP.

Not to mention his total inability to motivate and get the best from his players

The first half was poo. The second half will be....

poo

 

[Blue in exile]

we've got zero balance in the team and that's down to the guy who picks the team. not good enough. if you can't foresee sylvinho is going to get skinned all day by lennon then i don't know what you're doing managing a team.

we needed someone to track back and robinho is HUGE liability. if barca come in i hope we sell him. i would rather have seen vlad get a game. at least he will sprint for the ball.

 

[Bongo Joe]

Finally Palacios booked. Fouling tramp.

This is so bad.

Spurs arnt even playing well and still making us look shite

Exactly mate, least we can't blame lescott tonite, whoever organises defensive tactics needs shooting 8th place is where we deserve to be

 

[Ricster]

That was my thought, take off Ireland and Barry, drop Tevez back and tell him to press and get 2 wingers on

This except I feel Ireland is at his best when Tevez is off so I'd take off Tevez rather than Ireland as Tevez really doesn't appear to be so great at passing.

If going 4-4-2 as the wingers would suggest then you'll need someone in the middle pressing, Ireland doesn't harrass opponents the way Tevez does and that was my thought behind it.

Robinho has been a fucking shit signing for city it annoys me beyond words when people say we should play him. Hes had half a dozen decent games in a season and a half. I dont want to see him in a city shirt again. No good for MCFC or the Prem.

Worst fears have been confirmed under Hughes no chance of top 4 top 6 looking very very unlikely we will probably finish 7th - 9th great progress with £150 million spent in the summer. That welsh c**nt hughes needs putting on a walll and shooting in the head.

LOL has he fuck

away though he is crap yes.
