Official Match Thread City v Fulham

[david yearsley]

And sounds like the dippers have got major backing coming their way :( - now that would be typical City!

[Dameerto]

I dont think Fulham overachieved last season when the qualified for Europe, so I think they are better than midtable. They are tough opposition when they have a fullstrength team (since they have a paper-thin squad otherwise). If we buy Hangeland from them they will be stuffed though. Unless Hodgson has another Scandanavian rough diamond in mind.

I think Hughes is done buying for now, and rightly so.

that's right. and we should have won today. correct?

We drew versus Villa and should have won, same with Wigan and Fulham because someone figured out how to beat City and we have faced the same side three times running now and someone, let's call him Mark H...no wait, M. Hughes...that'll do, hasn't figured out how to deal with teams pressing us over 3/4 of the pitch. A monkey would have it figured out in less time.

So, please inform us how to deal with that problem.

You get a crate of bananas and go out into the jungle....thought that much was obvious.

I see a fortunecity sticker and I think you are being a little too chummy recently. We are gonna have to sort that.

Arsenal have thrown away a 2-0 lead against West Ham currently 2-2 - they're in the 84th minute and still playing.

Im getting really concerned about losing Toure during the Cup of Nations.

im more concerned about us sucking the big nutbag over the last month. January is a long ways off.

Can someone give me a thought about how Micah played today cos from where I was sat, he looked horrendous. To busy blaming other players for his obvious mistakes and when he did actually do something decent, he followed up with another pearling mistake. Don't get me wrong, I don't like to get at our players but he just seems to be letting himself and the rest of the team down.

Am I wrong?

[The Original Special One]

A caller to Five Live said Richards had another nightmare performance
(which probably means he'll get a 7 rating by MEN)
Anybody at the game care to comment?

Ye i went..iv not posted since i got back..Gutted and annoyed aint the word.
Thought Micah was ok 1st half but lost it in the 2nd..Its not just him either.Thought Lescott wasnt much better.Toure didnt have a great game but to be fair he didnt look fit.I dont think hes recovered fully from that knock at Villa.
Bridge for me was outstanding and come out of this game with some face.
All in all theres alot of work to be done with the back 4..It is not a solid unit.Gaps all over place today and a lack of understanding.
Full marks to Fulham.They fought like tigers to come from 2 down..Top 6 side for me.
