First time I've ever seen a ref run 40yards to check if a ball was in the quadrant prior to taking a corner, embarrassing

Phew, that was hard to watch. Must have been bloody awful for the fans in that miserable weather. The main objective was achieved though - 3 points.
Thought Samir thoroughly deserved his MOTM at the ground - he played really well considering it was his first start for man months.
I thought Bony was selected to get the high balls and then lay them off to small mobile players - he just held up play totally. MP for gods sake give your head a wobble and pick Nacho ahead of him in future.
Why the hell was Kun left on the pitch for so long after all the kicks he was getting he was obviously hampered and needed protection ready for Tuesday.

If I thought that was a poor game but I've just watched (on Sky) the Auckland City v Solomon Warriors in the OCL (Champions League) - that was even more painful. The Auckland goalie had more touches than any of their forwards as the defence kept passing back to him. How they managed to score 4 goals was a mystery.

Honestly? I am not so sure if I would not rather have Corradi or Samaras rather then Bony.

At least samaras had a ponytail ;)
How about Jo?

I may get banned for speaking my mind; but I'm talking honestly in saying that 9999999 out of 10000000 fans hate Bony and are totally gutted that he is restricting the progress of Iheanacheo!

Has it really sunk to bollocks like this.

He has proven himself in the PL and in the right team is a proven powerhouse and scorer. He is definitely (for whatever reason) not suited to us, be that because we set up against how he thrives or he is starstruck with his new peers.

Surely frustrated rather than hate is what you meant.

Is it possible to remove Bono and Demi from the champions league squad next round if we get though

Just responded to your previous post. You really are having a bad night

I mean hate Bony playing before Iheanacheo, I have no personal harptred of the player obviously, I'm sure he is a great guy but is currently useless playing for City and stopping a young talent. Not playing Iheanacheo could seriously stunt his progress!

What's wrong with this, surely if is a valid statement.

No probs, but if you read your post again, you will see you have stated hate.

It's a kneejerk statement. What your saying is take two out of our CL squad without replacement. With Vinnie probably not ready, what would be your tactic if either Ota or Eli got injured during the game

Only to find that the ball was actually placed correctly! There is just something not quite right about him. I suspect he was everyone's favourite punchbag at school.
