Me too, but hey hopardoeofftomexico said:oakiecokie said:Chippy_boy said:Didn't see anything excellent from Clichy to be honest. Was it his defending or attacking that impressed you, because I thought he was dank.
Him and Sagna are about 0.01% as good as Kolarov and Zabba imho.
Sorry but I was there and people around were also singing the praises of Clichy,who had a good game and certainly was one of the top three players for City today,His interceptions and passes were top notch and you are doing him a dis-service by stating he only has a 0.01% rating against Kolarov.He is a far better defender than him and I admit that his crossing isn`t the best,neither was Navas today who really was piss poor.
Are you real? I thought Navas had a great game.

Sagna simply isn't up to our level, and I'm not sure he is young enough to get there.
Kompany was literally forced to play right back throughout the game, such was Sagna's inability to get up and down and provide the overlap with Navas.
Navas had plenty of touches but again was busy but lacking. Good tracking back but offers far too little offensively due to poor decision making and not using his pace in a direct manner.
Been a big fan of Demichelis ever since he arrived and always backed him when there was the witch hunt of last season - he was not good today.
Fernando was well off it to be expected, although Fernandino again was everywhere.
Silva's worst game in a City shirt for me, poor passing, decision making, but has set the highest standards for himself.
A privilege to watch Sergio. Milner and Hart were also excellent.
Also thought Clichy had a decent game and I like it when he is aggressive and willing to get there first and go on the attack.
Plenty more to come from us!

Thought Navas could have done better today, particularly when they went down to ten and he had more time and space and yet got worst with his crosses and started giving the ball away.squirtyflower said:Me too, but hey hopardoeofftomexico said:oakiecokie said:Sorry but I was there and people around were also singing the praises of Clichy,who had a good game and certainly was one of the top three players for City today,His interceptions and passes were top notch and you are doing him a dis-service by stating he only has a 0.01% rating against Kolarov.He is a far better defender than him and I admit that his crossing isn`t the best,neither was Navas today who really was piss poor.

Fernando, Demi, Silva poor.
Rest ok.
Not the best, but not going to complain about 4-1
Didn't see anything excellent from Clichy to be honest. Was it his defending or attacking that impressed you, because I thought he was dank.

They offer us fuck all going forward compared to Zabba and AK.
bullocks! Aguero was 1, Hart 2, and Milner was a distant third. With Fernandihno, Navas, and Fabulous Frank quite close.Brendan110_0 said:Spurs at least came to play some football, but we were creating double the good chances they had, fair result in the end. It'll be all could have/would've/should have in the papers tomorrow.
Milner - MOTM for me even though Kun scored 4.
I know we love our Milner here, but let's not go overboard. He was no where near the kid who banged 4 in. Or the kid who made 3 point blank saves. Those two were Miles ahead. Milner was closer to Navas, both were a bit wasteful, but constantly present.

As reserve fullbacks,they are decent.Against quality it will be our Achilles,fortunately Spurs are just outside that bracket..... left back is still an issue for us.

Would agree with most of that, though I think Sagna needs time to develop an understanding with Navas. Far too often they were both 2:1 with Rose and conspired to lose the ball. When picked in today's formation Navas really needs to commit the defender and get him in the book from the start. He had about four opportunities in the first twenty minutes when he was 1:1 with Rose and had clear space behind him to attack, but each time he chose to await an overlap or turned it back or inside.
