FFS Nastasic!!!!

Stop giving away free kicks outside the box.

He's so fucking shit in one on one situations, gets beaten every time. How on earth has this guy started so many fucking games?!?! Getting ridiculous now.

I just don't see what he's doing to earn the shirt. I get told its his passing then watch him
Clip it into row 12 under no pressure.

He's going to be world class. That's all I'm told.

We paid £12m for him plus Savic (who cost £7m). Ridiculous money.

I'm not trying to take all the blame away from Nastacic or Kompany but there is a glaring hole in front of our two centre backs. There was one when we started the seaon and it's still there. Pellegrini needs to fix this asap. It's obvious to anyone who's watching that this is causing trouble for our centre backs.

No hyperbole: I actually forgot Nasri was playing.

Yaya Nasri are not there and Navas is to on side to help , we need Silva in maybe for Edin and try take the ball . But Hart is at fault we are losing.

[Grandad Rosler]

Let's be honest we've got to be happy it's only one. We need to get Negredo on to mix it up put himself about

[sidSmith]

dzeko has done fuck all. he's not suited for this match

And Negredo proved he had the strength to compete in the friendly.

[Dameerto]

Three in midfield (Dzeko coming off to make way for the third) plus Aguero dropping back to help out. This isn't working at all and we can't hold on unless it changes.

[usedtothespin]

Can't really win these games without Silva it seems. But despite this terrible first half, still in it.

As is Navas and Richards for playing really sloppy defensively the first 15 minutes or so.

[Tru_Blu]

They are playing Barcelona ball, we cant really expect to much but we need to drop a man into the midfield if we are going to try to get something from this game.

[halnone]

nasri has made the most passes in the first half. only 9 ffs.

[branny]

They are good but it gets on my tits how everytime we win the ball ref blows for a Bayern free kick.

[london blue 2]

this Munich side is good.

Can't believe people moaning at players, they are awesome. No chance of scoring two past these!

Please work

[zuricity]

This refs are bit funny 100 free kicks for Bayern

Here's what i just sent to a city fan on holiday in Sicily with no chance of watching ...


" 0-1 ht . .. seen enough to think these dutch officials have picked up their bmws already "

[Cit.revenge]

dzeko has done fuck all. he's not suited for this match

i just can get this Dzeko is fault he did not get one ball , u people are just insane. I agree that he did nothing but we lost control in midfield not Dzeko fault.By the way are we play in Munich.

[ant london]

If we can hold up to half time without conceding, we might have a chance. Then Pellegrini needs to bring to put 5 in the midfield and Negredo instead of Dzeko.

WTF Negredo can do when Yaya and Nasri can't pass ball forward

HE will press and add more bite to our team. Dante and co are simply tearing us apart physically.

Press he alone u are funny , Bayern are just outrun us , our midfild let them have the ball nothing Negredo can do alone.

Not he alone you spastic cunt but he is supposed to be an outlet.....not a bouncing Bosnian fuckwit off whom the ball bounces back to the opposition.

He is not the only shit one tonight but he is fucking gash thus far

[london blue 2]

They are good but it gets on my tits how everytime we win the ball ref blows for a Bayern free kick.

It has a lot to do with us constantly being offside and fouling them. Other than that I agree.

As I said, bring Negredo in AND shore up the midfield. Bayern are far too physically powerful. I frankly see now way in which Aguero and Dzeko will be effective in this match. Sub both out, bring in Milner/Garcia and Negredo and bring in Silva for Navas.

[Beefymcfc]

We're being outplayed in the middle and the 2 upfront is just not working, we need to get a hold. Fucking shit tactics that aren't even giving Byern the Frank Butcher. Do we not know anything other than what we've seen this season?

And the fucking ref's, how fucking good are they? Any other game there may be a benefit of doubt but these fuckers are all over that. Take the fucking ball and still get fucking blown for it. Fucking RAG CUNTS!!!!

[sheblue]

Playing two upfront against these is sheer madness, they are light years ahead of us.

[Dameerto]

Which is why Dzeko needs to come off to make way for a third midfielder - Navas should be replaced with Milner too. (Aguero to drop back into midfield to help out). If we don't get back into the fight in midfield we will let another goal in if not more.

I agree completely. Getting rid of Barry was a monumental fuck-up and Fernandinho isn't suited to do what Barry did.

Nastasic's defensive frailties have always been there though. He got away with it in the past as he was surrounded by good players, particularly Barry. He's always been shite in one on one situations and his tackling is rubbish. People chose to ignore it because he 'looks' better on the ball than Lescott. When he has to do some serious defending, he can't do it. Without Barry now, it's becoming even more obvious.
