West Ham Vs City In Game Discussion Thread

Cue Bob in

'we had free of four charnce to score' shock quote.

We have to start being clinical. Game should be over already.

Nasri is impressive in the middle. Defo plays to his strengths more that position.

Dzeko is being asked to play to wide for his liking and to do things that aren't his strengths. For that role we'd be better using Aguero or a 'proper' wide player like Sinclair.

Much the better team imo in that half. Showing good desire, workrate and grit as well as some nice periods of magic football. Just gotta start scoring,

Only one team in it, going by ESPN's coverage.

Can't stand this focus on Mancini always trying to conjure a problem

 

[City Raider]

I think Nasri is playing well. There seems to be so many forwards they are getting in the way of one another. Also Mario trying hard

at times we've too many players ahead of the ball, we'll open them up with late runs from midfield

Dzeko's first touch has been awful

 

[DTKOAG]

Nasri & Kolo playing very well. Just playing to much football top end.

 

[Danamy]

Can't people see that Dzeko has been picked ahead of Aguero to help defend set pieces and corners?.......he's dropping in to pick up Collins so Vinny and Nasty can concentrate on Carroll.

I've been critical of Nasri of late but I think he's having a good game today, he's a lot more effective when he's central so I'm glad he's drifting inside.

you'd never know we utterly dominated the half

Durham on TalkShit thought the Hammers goal was offside...

I guess you could say his shoulder is offside, and you can score with your shoulder so technically he is offside but it's incredibly fine margins and the goal should probably stand.

Why should it stand if technically its offside?

ESPN director is shit.

On thr game, if we can get the first goal we'll win. If w get an earlt second have goal we'll score a few.

It's not quite clicked tonight but I'd stay with the same formation/players until the last ten if we need to go for it.
