Parma's forwards looked completely inept v Inter yet the Boj didn't get on until the last 10 mins. Must be very unimpressive in training if their manager prefers those characters.

I would not be surprised if Silvinho gets a look at a midfield role tonight with the reserves

I just read that if he doesn't contest the charges, the first game he would miss would be Wigan. RSC, Tevez and Robinho should all be fit by then.

The Wigan game is when he might be expected to be available again.

I doubt also if anyone will be losing sleep over not having Bojinov around for the game on Sunday either. I don't think he would have helped much and isn't he having difficulty getting into the Parma side?



What makes you say that?


Mate this guy;s only ever scored ONE competitive goal for the club.

How could you possibly "rate him highly"???!! Was it the angle it went in at? The speed it went in at?

I'm fucking baffled!

As for our shortage of strikers... any team that have lost Ade, Tevez & Robinho before they play United couldn't say they haven't been severely weakened.

Hopefully RSC is ready to be the next player to shut the doubters up at this club!

We both know the reason he's only scored 1 goal for the club. He's been sidelined for 98% of the time he's been here.

I rate him very highly based on what I've seen of him previously and the small amount of times he's been available for City.

It's a shame he's not here for the derby.

Now you rate him VERY highly? Fuck it mate, I'm too pissed off with the false statement to the FA to get into this.

I do agree that I'd rather have him available for the derby given our current situation... although I'd say the same about Vassell because he's got a great record against the scum.

Its a bit ironic though when you think about it... Taggart was the one going on about "Are City gonna play with 8 strikers..." etc... Looks like we're going to the swamp with one, including the bench.

Aye, but we won't have to worry about that now because Ade's available isn't he? :)

Did you look a couple of posts underneath it or are you just trying to be a smartarse?

Cause if you want to play this game, I could show a six month gap between someone posting shit that actually showed they had a pair and then when called upon to hold true to that post, they claimed they didn't and even when it was proved they did, they STILL failed to step up, accept they were wrong and act like a man.

I could, but I won't, but I could.
