I actually think we were better without Dzeko & Balotelli.

Not that I don't see a future for them, just that imo, so far, the team was, on the whole, more solid before they became fully involved.


Dzeko and Balo have warped the progress to playing as a team before they got involved imo, i can see we have taken two steps back. That said i can also see what aviodingconfusion is getting at.. and although in a direct comparison from team with Tevez and team without so far they are worse BUT obviously not so Tevez centric and i get the sense there are signs that the play is balancing out a bit between the players. I would even say that in the longer term the players without Tevez will be just as effective and with better all round play.

I could imagine that if the stories were true, a swap for Tevez & Sneijder would actually benefit City as the role Tevez is being asked to play now that Balotelli & Dzeko are here, doesn't really suit him. My big worry would be that neither of those two has proved themselves good enough to have the same impact Tevez had.

If he does go, we MUST sign another striker imo, not pin all our hopes on those two.

A disgrace the lot of them - Smith, Coleman and Friedel - anyone who doesn´t think there is an anti-City agenda at Sky watch a re-run of their coverage tonight. It couldn´t have been more biased if they´d tried - twats!


Did you just hear chimp boy Friedel? Blackburn deserved to win cos they were the better team. My arse!

He's a Blackburn legend; what do you expect!

I wonder which two former West Ham players we'll get as neutral commentators on Sunday?

In that case what's Chris Coleman's excuse? Thought pundits are supposed to remain neutral
