I suspect he's breathing through his bumhole by now. Does need to go off, but wouldn't write him off on the strength of a tired performance tonight


Thought Hargreaves did quite well for most of the time he was on

The back four are the only ones really playing up to standard at the moment. Nasri is invisible when he should be dictating our play. Dzeko appears to have given up. AJ can't beat his man. Hargreaves is struggling to fill in for Barry/Milner. We're in trouble!


AJ's had some wonderful passes, though. He seems to do quite well when he steps in to a more central role.


He has but for the amount of good ball he's had alot has been wasted. Maybe that's overly harsh but Koscielny has had him in his pocket when he's come inside.


He's looked far from convincing on the occasions that he has tried to beat his marker

Whether this is due to a lack of fitness or the fact that he is simply past it who knows, but he isn't doing his job tonight and needs to go off


Come on mate, have a think about what you just said.

It's been his problem since first arriving. Either he can't do it full stop or he when he has done/found the space he doesn't know when to exploit the opportunity and tries to beat the defender again giving the oposition time to recover.

NDJ and Zaba have been outstanding for us tonight...the former took a bit longer to get into it but still. Savic has been impressive as well. Pants has made some good saves.

as im typing..what a build up play. finally a great pass from dzeko...brilliant touch by AJ..calm finish by Aguero.
