If only we had some decent strikers

Here is the place to talk about all things city and football!

If only we had some decent strikers

Postby Kladze » Sat Sep 10, 2011 4:01 pm

We'd be top of the league by now ;-)

Seriously - early days but this is the best footballing City team since the seventies.

Hats off to the much maligned (by me <red face> ) Roberto Mancini.

Top of the scorer's charts looks very nice at the moment.

I'm 35 and I concur. It's worth getting up every Saturday or Sunday at 6am.

And I don't feel spoiled at all!!

Aguero is Tevez v2.0

Not as ugly, passes, faster, better finisher, better attitude. If we knew Kun and Dzeko would stay fit for 50 odd games this season I would be happy if Tevez wasnt here, we just wouldnt need him, what with Balo in the background.

But someone will get injured, someone will get suspended, someone will lose abit of form, so lets play happy families.

If we count our forward line as being all four who play at the front.

Dzeko, Balotelli, Tevez, Aguero, Silva, Nasri, Johnson.

Not sure what they do for the opposition, but that lineup scares the fuck out of me.

fucking ridiculous that the scoring chart has rooney on 8 and dzeko and aguero both on 6 after only 4 games. kun would be top if he'd played the full 90 vs swansea....

I just think it's important not to get too carried away. We won the first 4 games under Hughes a couple of seasons back aswell. The big test will come when we go a goal down.
