Garcia at CB? WTF.

he is better at CB. a bit like dunne but with less skill on the ball.

[Green & Blue]

Great to have Kolo back in the squad and Yaya by the way.Come on City 3 points please.

SUBS NEWS: Pantilimon, Kolo Toure, Kolarov, Maicon, Rodwell, Sinclair, Milner

Kind of screwed for striker cover, let's hope we don't get a double injury.

With Yaya back, I guess he'd be pushed on if needed. Also, Kolarov and Maicon are more attacking subs than defensive ones.

[Douglas Higginbottom]

Well he a missed training as Ant said so no great surprise. Nasti missing again is a surprise as he seems to have trained with no problem so maybe a reaction overnight.Maybe Red has got through to Mancini. Milner missing will be for a rest as much as anything I would expect.Still plenty in there to win this one.

Yaya played at least one match for Ivory Coast in the ACN as a striker. I don't think it will be long before we see him up there if Tevez stays awol.

If folks pop over to blue moon and have a goosey gander on match day forum, look for LOF thread go to last page and have a quick read. Seemingly works just logged in on my old a/c name and hey presto! They are back!

[Ted Hughes]

John Barnes has just shown the huge gap between our midfield & defence occupied by Suarez etc last week, that same gap several of us said on here before the game, would be key. Why that was the case, God only knows.

If we are as badly organised today we will get punished. Southampton used that area at our place (even though Nige was playing) & caused us a lot of scares.

I guess the best thing is to score plenty at the other end so we don't have to think about it.

I'm just chuffed to fuck that sky go works over in Saudi, and will have the Abu Dhabi tv up by next week for every single game

[phips]

absolutely shocking decision to drop Milner. I see Mancini wanting Yaya pushed up, and i agree with that. Nasri though?

[blues2win]

Garcia is taller and tougher in the tackle. He's a genuine defensive midfielder which Milner isn't.

Well I was able to log in but I can't get the game to play. It is what it is.

[blues2win]

Actually Garcia is playing centre back by the look of things. Is nastasic injured? What about Kolo?

[Vantage]

We are consistently not winning the second ball in midfield.

Why is Milner not picked FFS?

[Nigels Tackle]

hoof

[Im_Spartacus]

What the fuck was that kick from hart, 60 yards across the pitch to the smallest guy there an straight into touch. I fucking despair with his choices at times

Simple unnecessary sloppiness like that is something id be going radio rental at if I were bobby
