Not bad eh!

We were desperately unlucky.

Not sure where your getting you facts mate...

Other than de Jong's, I can't actually remember one on target. My mum could have played in net for them today. She'd have been quicker taking dead balls, too.

That says the same. Though personally, I don't see blocked @ 10 yards or off target shots as 'shots on goal'.

Also the fact that none of them were even close to going in doesn't mean we're "not bad".

Interesting article that.

Loads of sensational shit thrown in for good measure of course, but there is no doubt that the fans are becoming pissed off. I wonder is Mancini suprised his substitutions didn't get us that late winner we craved?

Kolarov's freekick.

We did also have a perfectly legitimate goal ruled out. I'm sure granny would have kept it out though.

You got your Mancini that you craved. My guess is you won't let him go without a fight? :)

Everything's rosey in the garden. And will be as long as he's in charge, right Socs?

Still trying to figure this one out, without fucking up the evening, no excuses poor........

Yep, as the slow motion showed, it came off his chest.

We had no efficiency today. We needed to be like we were against Liverpool ( 3 shots 3 goals) to get anything out of this game because of the way Mancini set everything up.

More of a back pass. Got some curl on it, but no pace, but it was on target, agreed.

Was down the far end and they didn't show it again on the screens, so no idea why it had been ruled out. I presume that wasn't included in the stats though

Yeah, great.

Shame milners shot was cleared off the line too eh?

We were parked in their half most of the time. Sometimes i thought i was watching arsenal, pussyfooting around.

24 shots on goal!! Were we watching the same game?? ....the last decent exchange I saw was against the Rags!!

If things were so exciting with so much goal mouth action, why did 40,000 people boo the most expensively assembled insomnia cure of all time?


Think we have some Mancini licking going on here.

Nobody mentioned excitement or goal mouth action. I merely pointed out the facts and even provided a helpful diagram to help those who are hard of understanding to understand.

You made that up. There is no way that 40000 people were booing at the end, the vast majority didn't boo, some even clapped.

Mancini is our manager, there is nothing wrong with getting behind him. The 'licking' references are childish and tiresome by the way, maybe it's time to change the record .

I didn't. Neither did anyone around me. Anyway, there were probably only 30,000 in the stadium at the final whistle. Which in itself is a joke.

People moan about the players being shite, they should take a long hard look at themselves. If all they're going to do is sit there in silence, moan when Yaya gets the ball and then boo at the end because we didn't win, they should fuckin stay at home.
