SimonButtle Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 (edited) but City were not playing then like they are now though are they? id like to see Vellios starting, unknown quantity to City sorry for the double post, not sure what happend there Edited September 24, 2011 by theprisoner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 (edited) but City were not playing then like they are now though are they? so? You said they wont get a touch against their players. pretty sure City have been favourites to beat us each time in the last few years and on or off form, we will give them a good game. I wouldnt change the team around, stick with what weve done before. I still dont have any hope for this game though.

SimonButtle Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 so? You said they wont get a touch against their players. pretty sure City have been favourites to beat us each time in the last few years and on or off form, we will give them a good game. I wouldnt change the team around, stick with what weve done before. I still dont have any hope for this game though. if we play like we can do, then we can get a draw, but i dont see us winning the match unless City end up with 10 men or something and even then id be surprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 That's just Neville in for Bily isn't it? I'm all for leaving the Russian out but that's not exactly an encouraging statement of intent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for leaving the Russian out but that's not exactly an encouraging statement of intent. think Ossie pushed out left is silly but Pip in the centre is a wise move imo edit: heading the pub so enjoy everyone.

Mogsy Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 To be honest I'll be happy with a draw today, the way their front line have started and the fact that they can afford to have tevez on the bench still hate them though and would love a win, but can't see it.

rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 City coming on a bit stronger now, but we are doing ok for now. I think we need to settle down a bit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Rodwell booked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Rodwell is man marking Silva and caught him slightly. Got the ball, but got the man too. Hence the booking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall Writer Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 City seems to be getting the benefit of the doubt from the officials. Can see this getting messy in teh second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Rodwell is still doing a fair job despite the booking. Felli is going about his job quietly and effectively for the most part. Pip is a leader though. He is keeping it all together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 I get the feeling City are getting frustrated. Complaining a bit and shooting from distance. COYB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 If it continues in theis vein I can see it being tailor made for Drenthe in the second half as City get more frustrated and tired. Maybe Vellios too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Get fellaini deeper and put drenthe on for rodwell, rodwell played well bit the yellow has nullified him. Ref is on payroll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Problem we have is there is nobody to clear the ball to just now. We need someone to get the ball high up the pitch and hold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Well 0 - 0 after the first half. Not a bad performance, but as I said earlier, we are a bit light up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
