Stoke V City Post Match Discussion Thread [Merged]

[kevodevo]

We may have lost the title when Giggs scored that 95th minute winner at Carrow Road. It seems to have given them a new lease of life and ourselves a boot in the face. We desperately need something similar to work in our favour.

And it will - there is plenty of time - it aint over til it's over and Fulham can do us a favour - blackburn can do it and so can others - C'mon City let's stuff arse away and prove it all - this is the merrygoround for the title winners

I am not Kolarovs biggest fan but yesterday that game was made for him, we play 2 up front and the service to them is dire.
The rags win games because a lot if the time they get cross after cross in we don't, we need a world class winger with real pace, until then I feel we will just fall short.

Why are you so angry???This isn't Mancins club, this is MCFC, club of all real supporters.As any fan I love to see my club wining.
For you all, some players are shit, stupid and it is all their fault.You cant say that all players are shit, some of them are the best on the world, but now they cant pass 3 balls without making mistake.They confidence is 0.
I'm supporting city with all my heart, and I'm not angry because of yesterday I'm just sad!
Mancini spent lot of money, and with this teem some off managers would have won everything.
Now we can all seat in front of TV, and watch other clubs playing in CL,EL and Cups.I hope I'm wrong, criticizing Mancini, but I think he isn't capable of managing this teem.He maybe good tactician but not good psychologist.

You are just angry because what I sad is true.
Open your eyes mates!!!

Did you look the game against Chelsea, when Torres came out di Mateo gave him support, that is what we need-manager who can motivated players to give all of them on the pitch.

Shame Torres played like a twat..

So, is Whitehead going to be retrospectively banned or not? For a ref to say that an elbow that caused an serious injury to Silva is not a foul, is hypocritical, especially when the Lescott elbow incident was actually considered by the FA for a ban..

Forget it; he won't be banned. For starters, it looks more like his forearm, rather than an elbow (not that that would matter). And secondly, it doesn't look deliberate to me. He had his eyes on the ball the whole time. Huth's on Mario at Wembley was far worse, and he didn't get punished afterwards.

So was Lescott's..he was looking at the ball when he inadvertently elbowed that player..yet the FA was on hand ready to discipline him..and he would have been if Mario hadn't been banned in the same game..
and I thought forearm smashes were way more serious than elbows? (not that there is a rule dictating the difference). My point is that it's time the FA stopped accommodating Stoke City just because it's their 'style' of play. A foul should be a foul, irrespective of how a team plays. Otherwise, if the ref allows Stoke to play physically, then all other teams should be allowed to do the same, with no fear of a ban..

Yeah he played like twat, but di Mateo gave him support.I have a filling that Mancini cant communicate with some players, and some of them don't even listen to him.He just talks with Balo and Nasri.He never calls Yaya, Kolo and other players maybe to give them some advice.Yesterday we had 11 unconnected players, playing all for themselves, and thanks God Yaya saved us from shame.If we cant win any games on the side we don't deserve to be champions in league such as PL.

An for that twat calling me "rag"f*ck off, you looney numskull....

We need a winger who can cross, DESPERATELY! Just my opinion

It's really not just your opinion,just wish our manager shared it.......

I don't - I don't want to play United caveman-esque football.

Lets face it, the current team just doesn't have the balls to win it.
Without Kompany and lescott most of the drive for the team isn't there. Just Micah and Ya Ya - which isn't good enough.
Also our counter attack play is just so slow it's pathetic really. United's strike rate is so good because their counter attack play is fantastic. I'm all for being able to keep the ball but we really need to be able to do both.

Think the theory behind it is that if we have the ball the opposition can't score, but there is now the fear that no one wants to take ownership of having a go at scoring, take Zaba's chance for example. Looks like there is more fear of losing possession than trying to put it in the back of the fucking net!
