Well played lads....

[didactic]

Lost the game but playing more than 88mins with 10 men against Arsenal the team showed alot of heart. Great save and we got to see Balotelli. Better results will come.

Played well considering we were down to 10 men, il probably come under alot of fire here... but the tactics/changes were dreadful. I don't think its wise to throw in an 18 year old who is still learning the game into the starting line-up, he was lucky during the Chelsea game aswell. Give it another year or two and Boyata will be ready... but for now we need all the experience we can get during these big games.


You do have to question one or two changes... Bridge on for Yaya Toure? The game was crying for Johnson, there was loads of space down that right hand side today. We should of taken either Barry or Milner off and sent on AJ. Just wasnt clicking.

Hart, Boateng and Silva were top.

Arsenal deserved the win... but 3-0 is abit of a kick in the balls.

Tevez, Richards, Silva, Toure, Hart, take a bow

and to the whole team. that made me proud. roll on the next one!

Boyata will have nightmares because I think we could have won the match if not for his silly tackle.

But we can't be too harsh on him, he's a teenager and had to make some sort of challenge.

Our so-called "mercenaries" played with so much heart today with maybe one or two exceptions (Barry is the only one who immediately springs to mind). They fought and fought but it was always uphill. 3-0 isn't really a fair reflection.

Our MotM maybe Silva or Micah, both played very well.

Bad news is Tevez and Yaya both got injured, but that had to happen didn't it. Balotelli comes back so the laws of City dictate that Tevez has to get injured.

Wasn't Yaya injured?

Excellent performance. Lets just move on.

Easy to put that one behind me, it was over as a contest after 5 mins unfortunately.

Still, we showed a lot of character which is great to see.

Agreed personally I think he should have started with two upfront as Ade was buzzing after midweek, I didnt understand the inclusion of Boyata and that was telling. But onwards and upwards.

 

[cucumberman]

i made a sin in not including de Jong,

so proud. just. so proud.

 

[ultimateharold]

Boyata will learn from that. I thought after their 3 mids got booked johnson was the obvius choice. But hey ho.
