*** CITY v The Potters *** match day thread

[CTID Hants]

Boom

[ruralblue]

SERG!!!!!

[london blue 2]

He really didn't want to give that did he?

He was fuming!

Almost apologetically pointing to the support. What a wanker

[bigblue]

Really good awareness and footwork by Nacho.

Get in Serg!!

[aaron bond]

Great play Nacho. Great finish Aguero.

[Blue In Bolton]

Fucking hell!! He didn't want to give that then did he? Get in Serg!!

[Blue In Bolton]

Penalty. He really really didn't want to give it though! Prick!

Absolutely. This ref is a complete joke!!

[PeterParker]

I think the more impressive thing about Nacho is not his talent, but his ability to get involved and make himself available in decisive situations.

He is not afraid to be involved.

[CTID Hants]

Wow that's a stat....

Lost more home games this season than in the 4 previous combined!!!

[Saul Goodman]

Need to score a third. Then bring on Sterling, Delph, and (dare i say it) Bony

[bigblue]

Who says Joe isn't good on the ball? Pulled a move then picked out a teammate on the halfway line

Was thinking earlier that he take risks that other city players don't take anymore. Perhaps that's why we stopped creating as many chances as normal.

good to see Imbula is confirming my assumption about Porto ruining the passing skills of its non-skill players

Agree, but think another thing he's great at is combining with other players around him. For the goal he pulled a move to get around a few players, then a 1-2 with Yaya in very close spaces in the box.

Skill + good team play, think he'll thrive under Pep

[Sideshow Bob]

credit to navas for a couple of v good free kicks.

[blues2win]

Need to start the second half on the front foot. Give them no hope of a come back. We don't want to be hanging on for 20 minutes at 2-1. Another goal please.

[aaron bond]

Not the most enjoyable game to watch but a good score at half time.

Nacho is very hungry to get involved as much as possible.

Fernando having a good game, not just because of the goal.

We urgently need Sagna back for the Real Madrid game. Zab's legs have gone completely. Sad to see.

[Wonderwall]

Anyone know why we have the worst ref in the League reefing this game. I am sure we were allocated andre marriner . Madeley is an out and out city hater. Yaya has been going mental at the treatment silva is getting dished out.

[iwasthere2012]

Wasn't great but wasn't expecting s lot.
It's a lot better than against Newcastle. I think Nacho started slow but it really earning to his chance now. Serg needs to pass it to him more. He will link up with Kun and Yaya and Navas and Silva far better than Bony ever would. The more confident he gets in there the better the forward play will be.
Well in Fernando. Overall I think the effort is just better than midweek.Navas does get decent balls across the six yard area. Nobody gets in front of their markers though. Attack the near post Kun.
More goals there if the want it.

Really poor isn't he. Agenda aside its bullshit watching these decision over and over.

We touch = foul
they grapple = play on

Every fucking game.
