Another is needed to create a buffer.

Then johno can come on in the 2nd half and not worry about busting a gut

Better late than never.Looking much better recently, Kolo will struggle to get back in the side if his form continues.

Making it look easy so far. We're barely out of 2nd gear and goals up. Great half.

Very comfortable display, Silva pulling the strings to nice effect and look like we could notch up another couple.

Definitely an entirely different attitude after that shit game over the weekend. Mancini comments
in the media my have led to a spark under their bottom.

Why? If we can not over-exert ourselves with another game this weekend then we should. Why should they be playing at 100 miles an hour when we're 2 up?

I wonder whether Dzeko will come on for the second half. Balotelli didn't seem entirely right after that challenge. Otherwise pretty much same again.

A player that was 'Prem proven' I might add. Maybe the Boateng & Kolarov witch hunt is not justified after all?

I am amazed how weak they are at closing the gap whenever we make a run. Their defense usually bludgeons us
whenever we get that close, their center has enough holes you could drive an Army Hummer through it. Bradley, while
a good player, is totally useless where they have him.

Okay this is where it get's kinda strange for me. While I was thinking that Kolarov needed time and Boateng was shite, I am starting to think that maybe Boateng needs time in the centrehalf position and the more I see of Kolarov the more I suspect he isn't playing shite, he just isn't very good.
