Very few looked like anything, it was just a run out. Yaya just strolled off with a bit of a limp. Fernandinho was neat & tidy but only once showed the kind of run which will become his trademark, when he effortlessly left 3 for dead but then unfortunately put in a 'City' cross rather than a proper one.

The only thing we can take from the game was the formation. Razak was purposely played out right to show what our formation will be. We'll be looking at 4-2-3-1 with plenty of width next season. Will Sinclair get one of those spots, I'm not sure. He seemed to want to pull it back to his right peg when the obvious choice was to swing it in with the left.


Maybe, but the Count has just said they haven't really worked on it yet, so difficult to know for sure.

Feel sorry for Sinclair, he was a decent player but looks nothing now.

A few games and he'll be 'reet mate. He's going to have to prove himself during this period though, which he didn't do today, and show Pellers that he can bring something to the team.

Saw the game and just to make it perfectly clear, it was just a run out. Nothing more. Clearly lads were under strict orders not to get hurt and play with maybe 70% effoft. No one should draw any conclusions out of this either as individual talent or team effort.

Kermit Erasmus is pretty awesome name though.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

It's been a nightmare so far for the lad.I know his game time has been very limited to say the least but he has not even shown us a glimpse of the player he was at Swansea

Barry is fucking mint. He will only get slower but he can control shit. It's like he can see the game on TV, seems to notice things as they develop and just shut it down. He's also one of the few players on our team that can foul someone when needed and knows how to get away with it.


Barry is one of the first names that should be on the team sheet imo
