If vinny came off last night who was on the bench, boyata?
We are short in many departments.



Our bench last night was piss poor,Rodders,Lopes (kid),Pants,Boyata.


That is not strength in depth to me.

Thanks Txiki and Sorano for some of the best football I have ever witnessed at our club. Thank you for 3 months unbeaten with 18 wins 2 draws and 1 loss in the last 21 games, thank you for an amazing match against Bayern, getting us out of our group in the Champions League for the very first time and for bringing us Pellegrini who has turned a group of very talented players into an actual team. Thank you for paying attention to the FFP and bringing our losses down, linking us with NYCFC and Melbourne Heart and making us a world wide brand.

Also, thank you for tolerating the twats that some of our fans can be who react like spoilt children the moment we lose a single match against possibly the only other team in this league who can claim to be our equal.

Mmmm
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Considering you can have a 25 man squad and Fernandinho, Aguero, Nasri, Richards, Lescott were missing due to injury, I'd say you're talking nonsense

Lescott better than who? Nastasic? And what about Hart "not good enough"? Is this a serious topic or a joke? Remember that we lose yesterday against a big squad and after 20 consecutive positive results. We are only Manchester City, not a play station football machine, thanks a lot for all your efforts dear senores Txi and Soriano!

This isnt a post on 'ive supported city longer that you' kind of thing but..... if folks were honest in answering it would be interesting to see if the mega fucked off folks are maybe the ones who have only been on board since the takeover.

Thats not to say I or other folks wont have been pissed off at five to ten last night, majority of us were. Just cant be throwing toys out the pram or making it cause a further headache or get down about it.

Personally yup it weren't great and there could have been vast improvements right through the team but O just got to shrug it off. Easier to do when you've seen some proper shit over the years!

It will be the glory hunters who are mega fucked off. I was gutted coming away from the game last night. However I've seen some right shit at maine road and eastlands over the years so no knee jerk reaction from me. We lost 1 game in our last 21 that's outstanding. We're a fantastic team and Pellers is a top manager. I'm sick of these nobheads who have only "supported" City post takeover. You know who you are and your total cunts!

We only lost 1-0 to a team who was 1 place below us.

Didn't put in a great performance but not that big a deal in context (looking at our last 20 games). Biggest worry for me is having Fernandinho out for a month.

Blaming directors or staff at the club is absolute nonsense, way beyond a knee-jerk reaction. More akin to a bi-polar mental breakdown.

As Mancini would say, "Esss Football. Ess normal."

I have been taking guilty pleasure by snooping on the scum's fans forum to wallow in their pain these last couple of months. Some of the shallow reaction seen on here, including this thread, made me think that I had inadvertently clicked on the scum forum.

Was really hoping that this site and other CITY forums, don't get like 'them'. I think that is doomed for disappointment given the increase in attention seeking threads and posts this season.

Agree with the sentiment, but when you actually read the posts in the thread you will see you are among kindred spirit in the main.

Breks on bandwagon alert. Shocking. He was in Nam don't you know.

Also, great thread.
