Learning to fucking read them and defend them City. That is all!

.........and a free kick we were caught sleeping just the same.

And don't take them yourself. They nearly punished us from one counterattack after we lost the ball.

That issue was down to lack of sharpness and not being switched on. It will be eradicated after a couple of weeks training.

I think it's a problem with the system we use. When there's a freekick or corner all our players are looking to get in their zonal positions leaving us exposed to the quick or short corner and freekicks. We need to make sure that the nearest player stays in position so that they can't take it so quickly.

That would be good & a feather in Mancini's cap as we've been getting caught out from them for at least twenty odd years, usually (to my screaming annoyance) by the rags. In fact, if we don't get caught out by a short corner v rags & also beat them, I'll get pissed twice in celebration of each event. I may also show my arse in Burton's window.
