Shall we keep on getting embarrassed by playing Lescott and Vincent at the back or shall we just drop them both now ?

When theres a piss poor attempt by lescott to at least challenge for that goal they scored today someone blames it on fucking ZONAL MARKING....christ on a bike !!! it was fucking diabolical marking and was 1000000 per cent lescotts fault...AGAIN......how long before the penny drops for the lescott brigade that he should not be playing for us right now ????

Mancini can also do one , he is shite in Europe and proves it year on year with his shite tactics- we will never ever win anything in Europe with him in charge.
He has embarrassed Man City today and we will have to put up with the MUNICHS all fucking week long.

I will wait for the texts messages and general fb attacks...gonna be a shit week,

cheers you Italian twat.

Vinnie needs to be dropped asap. I don't care if he won't get his form back by sitting on the bench. We might actually keep a clean sheet without him.

It's the whole fucking team Carl, can you not fucking see that?

We are fucked because we used 3-5-2 all summer long.

If one or two defenders are shit, that is their fault, if every defender is shit as fuck, well, guess who's fault is it?

And yes Mancini need to take a look in the mirror, 3-5-2 is fucking embarressing!

It was a fuck up for the corner caused by Lescott not reacting quickly enough, nobody blocking the ball at the near post & nobody blocking the runner. It was caused by zonal marking but only because the team didn't carry it out.

What followed, when we took off our cb, is what we will look like every fucking week, if we take out Vinny & Lescott.

Make no mistake, that game was still very winnable until the manager intervened.

Yea it does seem to have fucked us up, its like we are being danced around, like the opposition players know exactly where to move and how to take on VK and JL.

VK looks to have lost confidence, BUT YOU DO NOT DROP YOUR FUCKING CAPTAIN. He needs to just sort himself out. Bob needs to stick with the same back 4 for 5 games, it doesnt fucking matter which back 4 as long as its not JL or Kolo with VK.

Stop fucking things about and play a regular team for 5 games, then tweak it.

AND THIS

Still don't see how zonal marking works. And everytime I see us use it, it convinces me more it's lunacy. And only one man can take the blame for that - it's either a stupid system or he hasn't bought the players to play it. Considering he's only bought 3 centre halves, all of whom were kids when bought and then he's sold two on again, he obviously rates the players. So why play a system that doesn't work?

the look of a team with no faith in their manager - never a good sign

True. Not a good sign. Bob is trying to hard and ultimately pissing everyone off.

Piss funny blaming this loss on zonal fucking marking,,,,we had the best defence in the prem last year so that excuse can go where it belongs , in the bin !!!!

We lost today because Lescott didnt challenge his man for the header - thats a fucking fact so put as much fuckign spin on it as you want....facts are facts.

Yeah thats about right.

There was desperation in mancinis substitutions, though we created 3 very good chances initially - it's fine lines between hero and zero. The final substitution saw us remove the whole midfield other than yaya and that was ridiculous, long ball from deep dealt with every time by the Ajax defence.

Mancini's interview on sky right now is very worrying. Looks like he hasn't got a clue what went wrong last night and isn't answering any of the questions posed to him

you know better than me that to win matches You first and foremost need to have players on the pitch.
almost all of them were elsewhere. may I be thunderstruck if I get why. I could had a litlle understanding last season, despite most of them were all experienced internationals, but this term and this very winnable game, turned for the better easily and pretty early... it's too much and well beyond me.
then comes manager, tactics, poor chance to get birth as retarded as paulmclaren or bridgerightfoot, whatsoever You want to pick, but football is a team game and You have to have at least 9 players with their mind focused on the pitch to even think of winning.
tonight we didnt have it.

I don't give a shit to defend Mancini, before some moron get started.

I thought he said he knew what the problem was and that he would solve it.

Every kid growing up knows when you're defending a corner you put a man on each post. We don't and look what happens...again!

Not just defence, the whole team looks shit. We're fucked.

Apart from that I'm happy.
