West Brom Vs CityPost Match Discussion Thread

[Deleted member 14625]

Can't be overstated what a great win that was. We had to contend with:

An early yellow from our most volotile player
A mistake by our normally solid Captain
A red to one of our most influential players of late.
Over an hour with 10 men
Playing against an in form team (100% home record so far)

To come away with 3 points after all that is a Champions perfomance, the scum have done this for years and we are getting the same mentality.

We are 6 points better off than last season against the same teams (That's swapping Swansea for Southampton)

great post mate
Just wait until we start playing well !!!!

I make it four. As we beat Arsenal last season and drew with them this. Still better of though which is the important thing!

Clettenburger was a joke yellow for deliberate handball
Ballotelli booked for far less than a lot of challenges by WBA
Grrate performance from the lads
Down to 10 and we dominated the game
Bad mistake by Kompany
Yaya was awesome
The rags in the pub were cheering WBA
We never win at home and we never win away
All those rags in the pub (who can never get tickets) you should see their faces ha ha ha ha ha haha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Top game, win was what we deserved.

Re: clattenburg

Good performance. He was maybe bit harsh to book balotelli but out of that called everything he needed to call for both teams.

And the pen?

Bic?

If you're meaning the handball I think he got it right, just outside the box. Still can't stand the guy though.

It was a good two yards outside the box to be fair.

Specsavers required, even the ref gave it 2 ft, which was about right

Did anybody see Aguero after when he passed the ball to Dzeko for the winner? He is proper loving it, pure passion!

Just seen it, he was on his knees pumping the air! Great, unselfish pass from a world class player, a blue forever(I hope)

 

[Comrade Buka]

Dzeko has 6 goals in 398 minutes.

A goal every 67 minutes.
1.4 per game.

Read this on the Guardian. too lazy to check if true.

I've been watching city for 50 years. Great spirit today- played to win the game just keep going the rags don't have a clue.

If Dzeko played in Spain this forum would be bending over backwards for him.

Steve Clarke with a very unbiased interview despite being goaded by Skys interviewer:
Sky:How did you thing the game went?
SC: Must give credit to City

Sky:Did you think it was a clear sending off?
SC: It could have gone either way

Sky: City bring on a 38 million pound player off the bench what did you think?
SC: We dont discuss the price of other clubs players

Seems like a decent enough fella

It's good for his squad too. Doesn't give them easy excuses and doesn't let them focus on what they can't affect. It's why they're doing so well I think. Look at the difference between him and Pulis. Pulis has a decent squad but they alway struggle to stay in the top ten because they don't have accountability in my opinion. The manager is always far too ready to moan about the advantages the opposition have. West Brom players know Clarke won't accept that and they better perform. Only thing I wonder about is why he doesn't start Lukaku, but he may well have good reason for that.

Think it's 4 as we picked up +2 vs Sunderland, Fulham and WBA and are -2 vs Arsenal.
