***Villains v CITY official match day thread***

[dick dastardley]

Too much fucking around at the back nearly cost us

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Vinnys blushes spared by some excellent last ditch defending from the big man.

Am I allowed to mention that?

[Clowncrete]

Our team is playing like strangers. Too many misplaced passes.

[DoomMerchant]

Well done Yaya.

Yes.

Something's got to give. Come on city!

[Moonchesteri]

If Dzeko will be subbed again instead of Aguero I will go ballistic. Offers so much more to the team right now

[Dameerto]

Keep the pressure on in the second half, Villa can't keep it up.

agreed. Aguero has offered nothing so far.

[PrezIke]

So close again!

Corners the best we've seen all season.

[Clowncrete]

1 goal and the flood gates will open just like at home last year in may.

[Cit.revenge]

Fuck me Aston Vila is lucky

[FA cup winners 2006]

Need a serious pep talk, not one player out there playing to their expected level.

I've never seen Silva with so much time and space on the ball yet not really producing anything quick enough. Aguero always seems to be in 2 minds in what to do with the ball. Yaya just seems to lack confidence, his mind is not on the game yet but the effort is there.

Hopefully Pellegrini can get them concentrated and up for the 2nd half

[Sideshow Bob]

Good finish to what was otherwise a flat 1st half. Aguero does not look happy to me. I would hook him at 60 for jojo.

Something has got to give with us sooner or later.

Dzeko and aguero does not work as a partnership, play one or the other.

Yaya has been oiss poor and our worst CM yet he has played more than any other.

Pellers needs to man up and make the decisions he is paid to make. He is happy enough to rotate navas and Milner, mangala and MDM. But bottles it when it comes to aguero and yaya.

Agreed.
To a certain extent I understand that you just want to give your star players more chances as likes of Yaya and Aguero can win you games on their own but there's a limit for everything.

Though I have to say imo Yaya has been ok. Just haven't produced any magic moments but he's not the only one.

Milner good.again

All the faces he is pulling and acting like a stroppy cunt. I get the feeling it's for the benefit of the cameras and he wants out.

I saw that (the earlier post).
What was that all about?

[stevefromdonny]

why do we always go back, we get to halfway line then go back. villa have pressed us on more than one occasion and nearly scored from this. we was going forward got to their penalty area and in two passes we was in our own half and a villa player never touched the ball but just pressed our players. WE NEED TO GO A LOT FASTER WHEN WE HAVE THE BALL

A mate thinking he's hilarious in the pub

[blues2win]

We've been on top to be fair even if we haven't troubled the goalkeeper much. I agree that Jovetic could come on for half an hour if it stays the same but the alternative is bringing on Fernando and pushing up Yaya. Also a case for Navas against a tiring defence. Plenty of options for shaking things up. Must keep concentrated and avoid conceding a silly goal though.
