Neither were the problem. We let two shit goals in & struggled quite a bit in midfield & defence.

No relevance in the rest.


Milner fluffed in front of goal......that's the relevant point.

And Jovetic was shit when he cam on. You're right Carl, he should've started.


So your judging Jovetic on 30 mins play......alrightly then.

Yes, I am. Not that it matters though, I don't get to pick the team.

Well I doubt we will see Milner in that position again as he flopped as a forward.
In fact I doubt we will see a performance like that again this season.

i bet the tight yorkshire horsecart doesn't even sign his new deal and fucks off. I swear to Yeezus that the Count was playing him to try and get him to sign that fucking deal and commit to us...because we like him and want him. Gritty cunt. He shouldn't have been playing at the weekend. FACT. That's the Count's fuck up and not Jimmy's.

cheers

I know it wasn't Jimmy's fault but going by some fans on here who reckon he played fuckign well at that role are deluded.

He scored fuckall and missed a few...that's a few that Jovetic or even a youngster like Ambrose wouldn't have probably missed had he started form the off imo.

I guarantee Milner will not start in that position ever again.......mark my words..huge mistake by Pellers.

I think we were better when he was on.
Not because of Jovetic doing anything wrong, but because the team was better with Milner in it.

I'd have no problem starting him there again. Nor Jovetic.

Both fine by me.

I think Milner needs a bit of a rest and would prefer to have a striker, or someone who can actually play the position. Milner is not that man.

I don't often disagree with you Ted but when you have only one striker you don't play a grafting midfielder there instead

Milner was fucking shit from the off ,till he was subbed 63 minutes later , if you cant see that then you need help.

The way Milner plays, changes the way Nasri & Silva play, imo, & they become more dangerous.

Jovetic could probably do the same but hasn't been used in that way. It's not a coincidence that Silva has started scoring imo. You may think that's not worth anything, but I think it's a big thing which could change the whole dynamic of the team.

The point is , Milner was used a forward , not a fucking decoy. We got away with it for 2 games and got fucked on the 3rd which didn't surprise me at all, Milner couldn't hit a barn door from 3 yards during that time.
Pellers fucked up..BIG time , yaya was fine and he has been quoted as saying he was fine , so Pellers was talking shit.

Yaya should have played and Ambrose or Jovetic should have played from the off - Milner would have been better off coming on as an impact sub.

All in all Pellegrini fucked up with his team selection.

Milner has been playing a different role to a typical striker; like Muller does sometimes for Bayern. He isn't a great finisher himself, but It has been working brilliantly. It worked on Sunday; we were two up by half time. We are getting more players into the box, in scoring positions, partially because of Milner pulling defenders about. He was suffering a bit from all his workrate in previous games, & that's most likely why he went off.

Jovetic is a much better footballer, but the game changes when he comes on & it's more about getting him into attacking positions, & Silva etc playing behind him.

We let in two goals v Burnley. That was he problem, not Milner. The game should have been won.

Yaya will have been left out on the advice of the experts, to prevent injury.

Why Yaya would be left out tomorrow to prevent injury I don't know. If he gets injured on Thursday he might not be able to play any League matches for many weeks. Oh wait....

Eh ????? Who gives a fuck if he gets injured as hes off to play in that fuckign micky mouse competition soon ffs !!

I stand by my point , Milner is fuckign shit as a stand in forward and I hope we never see Pellers using him there again.

Obviously, they thought Yaya is likely to be needed more vs Sunderland, than vs Burnley.

That's good, some thought that he'd be a contribution, especially as we were now left without the captain and vice captain.

Looked like a rudderless ship second half and obviously the subs had no impact..

Please get rid in the summer ffs. Hell, I'd sell him in January as long as we sign an average replacement. I don't even want Bony but I'd take him over Jovetic.
