I cannot believe we used that game to just give players a game. To put so many players who haven't played out there was asking for nothing better than a draw. It was as if they threw a team out that they thought couldn't win it and then thought we'd bring our hero's on to prove they can do it.

WTF was Starfish doing out there again, with Wiggy for good measure. The FA really are driving supporters away, not understanding what the average supporter wants. And it ain't fucking money.

Given Samaras put his team out, I take it Touré will be blaming City for knocking them out of the World Cup.

Hard to believe a team with Samaras in it has fared better than one with the Toures and Drogba.

He's not had a bad career Sam, since leaving us; limited but he's made the most of it, so good for him.

Felt myself rooting for Samaras there. Well done that man for putting that penalty away. What calmness under immense pressure

You could see the pressure on his face, but he dealt with it with aplomb. And the better team won....

Sam heard Yaya was upset and wanted to help City by sending him home.

Top lad.

Actually wanted Ivory Coast out truth be told.

Mr Toure can now set about dealing with the shit storms he's created, capped off by that France Football interview. One way or another this needs dealing with by City & Toure as soon as possible in July, either zipping up his mouth or shipping him out once a replacement has been sourced. To continually have him supposedly at loggerheads with the club and dragging our name through the papers over the past 6 weeks has been utterly needless, not warranted in any way and has been a poor attempt at engineering more money or a move to PSG.

July is time to face the music.

Initially I wanted him to stay. This thing with his brother, further sullying the club, means I'd sooner he was sold

Hope it's not too serious, but it did look like a muscle tear.
