Your list of players is far too long. A few of them never get criticism. It's usually Dzeko, Balotelli, Kolarov or Barry. The rest seem to get away with it.

Please see the various threads gone by aimed towards Milner, Lescott, Yaya.

The point still stands though. We're a squad full of mercenaries, not a team. Why do you think Barry chose us over Liverpool? Why would Yaya leave Barca for us?

It's cos we pay over the odds, give them ridculous wages and then have the privalige of watching the saunter round the pitch week in week fucking out.

Disgrace the lot of them.

Although I dont agree with your previous post - this last one is right on the money!

I've been saying it all along - you have to question the approach of City management when it comes to team building. You don't just buy stars at every position, constantly, pile them up - and assume championship. It doesnt work. Look at Real Madrid. Examples are endless.

With City management approach you end up with a lot of egos and a lot of individual aspirations - which really affect overall results. What I'm seeing right now (with some exceptions) is bunch of players playing with PRIMARY goal to look good themselves, and if win comes around - great. If not - it's ok as long as I looked alright.

And you cant even blame them cause there is another world-class player breathing down his neck for a starting spot.

You need to have your starting 11. Consistent starting 11. They can be all-stars. Don't give me fatigue bs cause it's lame. Consistency will prevent you from running around like headless chickens.

Then you need solid ROLE-players on the bench. Guys that can come in if someone goes down and do a good enough job. But guys who won't woman and moan for sitting on the bench. You can't have recognized stars on the bench, and have great chemistry, etc. etc. Playing team sports for the most part of my life I realy believe that.

Teamplay. Chemistry. Attitude. Comfort. Call it cliche but this current team is defficient in all those categories because they are consistently unsure of their place in the team (bare Tevez, NDJ, Silva, and Hart who are penciled in).
 
I hate it when people on here show absolute bias against certain players that they consider not good enough. We should be giving them our full support. Its daft to think they haven't got the ability to be part of something amazing at this club, but such and such a player from elsewhere would do a much better job. You are stupid if you don't realise that nearly every squad player we have right now has qualities that we can use.

Yeah, I'm gonna 'ave a go at Joe Hart. Yer meant to keep the fuckin' ball out of the net, yer dozy sod. Kuyt and Carroll got two goals from t'other side o' Stanley Park. Harry Dowd woulda saved those with a fuckin' blindfold on! There, I feel a lot better fer that.
