Why was he dropped?

Made no sense at the beginning of the game and even less now - our defence was in tatters

Madness decision if i was Lesscott id hand in a transfer request, if this is truth of a manager having confidence in a player it's this.
Mancini has none in him.

I have the same feeling that the lad in the movie that Scorsese made, After Hours,had. This is one of the most weirdest nights in my blue history. Lesco out, Dzeko taken off, Tevez refusing to go in, and most of all, Bob's tactics.
We looked like a team that has HUGE dressing room problems. Extremly weird though.

Whats Lescotts absence got to do with every other CUNT(apart from Hart)) playing like shit ???

The whole fucking shebang was dire...Barry and Yaya won FUCKALL in midfield !!

That's a bit OTT isn't it? He played Kolo for his experience and Lescott needs to ,and I am sure he will,understand and respect that ,even if he doesnt agree and is gutted. A very bad day at the office I would say and we need to respond with a top performance like we did last yeat after Liverpool away.

Doug, i've watched all the second half the defence. Kolo played in Vinnies position, as a right center back, and Vinnie was on the left cb, where Lesco used to be. He moved the players from their best position to make room for Kolo.

I know. Very very strange.

Awful decision

Should've started today.
And he MUST start at Blackburn on Saturday.

Feel sorry for the lad - probably one of the only times he'll get to play in such a big game at his stage of his career and he was dropped for a guy who hasn't played for over 6 months and makes more cock-ups than him. Plus it pushed Kompany to left centre back where he isn't as good.
