Man Of The Match v Fulham Away

[halnone]

Tevezzzz all the way

Toure for me - much more like the defender I thought we signed.

Tough call - I have gone for Zab

i've voted paddy v. thought that was his best game in a City shirt. He broke up the play extremely well.

I thought Vieria did really well today considering his fitness and supposed age issues some of our fans cant stop going on about.

He's lost that bit of pace he once had yes, but I thought he was very clever in midfield. He tracked alot of runs and Fulham rarely threatened down the middle due to him and Barry's work in there. There were no big tackles but lots of little niggly foots in which killed fulham momentum. Vieria also did exactly what De Jong cannot do and thats win the ball and then use it. He did it multiple times too.

His experiance carried us through in parts.

Also, whilst he may have missed an absolute sitter, bringing on De Jong to sit off Tevez was very clever. He was running around the Fulham half like a madman hustling the defenders into the long ball time after time. They couldnt get the ball into midfield because De Jong wouldnt let them have an easy pass. A weapon we could use in future games i feel.

Of course he did. How could have been otherwise?
Weared, maybe a bit rusty, yes. But we are talking about one of the very best midfielders of the decade!
I had been abused for saying that and that he would had enahanced GB too as they speak the same language.
My only concern is, given that he had very few games in a row this season (inter & city as well), about his possibility to run for 10 games, sometimes 3 in a week as the present one. But I really hope he will surprise all of us ... :-)

Vinnie Komps for me. Solid as you like, great in the air and one kung fu clearance that had me in stitches.

Vieira was a revelation. I didn't think he could go 90 mins and he was blowin out of his arse at the end but not being subbed will have been great for his confidence. Be interesting to see if he can still mix it with the likes of arse, rags and Everton.Being a footballer always helps a bit.

Great day out but terrible beer in the ground and the police didn't allow drinking outside the 8 Bells. Anyways, Tevew was MOTM by a mile. He seemingly occupied three or four Fulham players all game. Our best player by a mile.

Komsny looked after the main Fulham threat - Zamora- and did a great job. Toure simply played spare man - the plaudit-winning role.

I voted for Toure, but this is an excellent point. Yes Vinnie did very well.

Vieira for me, he had a great game
