Training Monday 15/2

Cheers Doug,
Did Bridge come out first, followed closely by Petrov?

Cheers Doug, good report as usual with some interesting points raised. Would like to see Micah (the Fish) back at RB or even CB with Johnno playing in any position. Hopefully with Shaun fit we will see a more attacking approach, like the first and last 20 against Stoke, rather than the more defensive displays we have seen of late.

And how did Adam Johnson look today? Do you think he might start tomorrow? What about SWP, Ireland, and Petrov I read in previews they are all doubtful for tomorrow? Kompany might play? Or is it too early for him?

They were all out there today but it's Mancini who has said Stoke tomorrow is a bit early for Vinnie. The other 3 seemed ok and it would be perfectly normal for Sky to be talking crap.

AJ looked fine.At least as fine as you can doing what they were doing.

ha ha, I really LOL'd at that one doug, I dont know anyone who takes sky sources seriously any more.

Thanks Doug, was Ireland out today and if so, how did he look?

Yes he was out there just getting on with it like the rest. Seemed fine to me.

So he WAS lying then - the lying filthy cunt ;)

That's good news, even if he's for the bench tomorrow... Also I noted the line you said Mancini was giving Shay clear instructions as to what he expects him to do against the long throw etc... another reason we should have him as the player for analysis IMO.

I think that's a bit strong OD , they may just have got him off in time before it became a seriuos injury.

Winky eye thing, winky eye thing Douglas!!!

I know that, its others that refuse to believe him - its always either a club cover up or he's a liar with some folk.

Am I the only one who thought he had a decent game, compared to what he has produced lately? Stevie needs a few games and a bit of confidence, then he'll be back to last seasons form (can't call it class yet). If Mancio decides to leave him out, we are left with a bunch of defensive mids which we all know produce very, errrrrr, defensive displays. I don't think anyone wants that do they, although I'm sure Patrick has the pace to suit our play?!?
