***Official Match Thread: Rags v City***

[getdressedmctavish]

Ever played five a side where one player cant be arsed? That is what we are seeing.

[gmercer1]

Toure = a lazy piss taking fucking disgrace.

That is all

[blues2win]

I hope no one is defending Yaya's lack of effort in that half. Inexcusable.

[kinkylola]

defense is just not good enough. Our shape in this game is miles ahead of where it's been since Jan ... but our quality at the back, especially fullback, is dire. Kompany and Demi have done ok at CB, although Kompany should be off now ... prior to that he was doing a good job. We also no longer seem to have a position where we can carry Yaya. To be fair to the rest of the team, it seems like the effort required to carry him escalates every game ... and he contributes less and less going forward.

Our mentality is so fragile right now ... we give up a shit lucky goal and our heads drop ... then we have a midget marking a giant and the rest is history, as they say.

You cannot have a 2 man mid with Yaya in it, it is basically non-existent.

[KinkyKinkladze]

There's gaps there for a through ball or two to aguero. Obvious to see. I'd bring milner into a midfield 3 with ferna and navas, allow toure and Silva free roam behind serge and navas licence to break. Just fucking go for it.

That's usually me, but I score loads.

That first goal is so fucking stuffy though.

His offensive passes were amazing, but that was about it.

[Blue In Bolton]

Hart flopping on his arse for the first goal and for the second it was straight at him. Meanwhile da gayer has kept them in it.

Fucking shocking for the second goal. Symptomatic of our season that Jesus goes clean through early on and De Gea stands firm and routinely saves whereas their offside goal goes straight through Joe. Thank christ for that; Kompany off, Mangala on. COME ON CITY!!!

[sheblue]

Vinnys gone. Mangala can't be any worse.

[Original Dub]

The mangler is on.
Time to step up lad

[london blue 2]

Toure has no legs. It's embaressing watching fellani boss him. He should be ashamed.

[ruralblue]

Our problem stems from 'I couldn't give a fuck' Yaya! He his lazy and chooses when to turn it on not giving a flying fuck about City and the situation were in. I do however think he's the reason for the situation. No work rate and just thinks scoring the odd wonder goal is enough to earn his wage. Sooner he's gone the better. It's got to be in his contract that he's first name on the team sheet or he would not get picked.

Unless we make changes and soon, I fear this could get messy

We have five midfield players on the pitch. He is being asked to occasionally pick up a 6ft lumbering fucking carthorse. It's hardly as if he has to chase Llionel Messi.

[PeterParker]

We are signing Messi?

[twosips]

Can we just end this season and fast forward to pre-season where it'll be full of optimism and hope?

[Moonchesteri]

How old is Toure Really .54 ?

Hhe either dosent give a fuck,or his legs have gone.Shocking.

He is fucking finished. When Fellaini is taking the piss out of you in the centre of the park you know you are shite

[Ted Hughes]

Vinnys gone. Mangala can't be any worse.

He can. Vinny has been pretty much perfect apart from the dodgy challenge.

[Mase]

My thoughts exactly

[30yeargloryhunter]

Really pissed off with this
They are crap.... Tactic pass to de Gea lump it forward and we can't handle that!!!
Yaya done some great things for us ... Best in future we forgot this season.
Agree with Aguero... Love him but get you head up occasionally. They are really crap at the back so come on City!!!!!
