We take nothing from that game. Mancini made the wrong choice up front, Komapny picked up an injury, and we lost a game we really couldnt afford to, right at the death, to them, again.
We never got hold of Valencia all day, and every time he got the ball he had 15 yards of space to run in too. This was plainly obvious after 25 minutes but wasnt rectified; Rooney, even though we had 2 anchor midfielders, was allowed too much freedom playing in the hole, and the second goal especially was a shocker.
Too many big players, again, not doing it for us - yes, that would be you Sergio, Ya Ya, Nasri, Balotelli, Silva (first half). As for the "wall" at the end - what a fookin laugh. Hearts like the Italian infantry waving their military flag, ie a white cross on a white background. Add to that the fact that Clichy should have put the f*****g ball in the stand, but didnt, and despite havingh our faces slapped many times in injury time by that team of shitbags, we never learn.
Concentrate on the FA Cup. To have a sniff at retaining the prem we need to string 8 or 9 wins together on the spin, and that looks as likely as January passing without a "De Rossi to City" or "City in Crisis" article in the tabs.
Bollocks.
