It's so fucking frustrating. Half of the time today we were down the flanks with no forward in the box, because they were trying to 1>2 the ball beyond the last defender. Dzeko proved where his talents lie with one of the best headers you will see - from one of the best crosses I have seen in the last 10 years at City/
Kolarov flung it in once in the first half, and once in the 2nd half, and we scored from both.
Why are we not making more use of Kolarov/Dzeko, and when one or more of them is on the pitch, why are we not banging crosses in every few minutes.

This drives me wild. Left footed player.....play him down the left wing so he can put in quick crosses without having to arse about putting it back to his better foot. Grrrrr!

You're absolutely right. Two wingers chucking in loads of crosses is the way to go. It's the reason Spurs are the best team the world has ever seen are are currently 5 points clear at the top of the league.
I suggest we sell Silva and Aguero in summer and buy Lennon and Grant Holt
