Title: Milner
Post by: Muscle-Dolphin on May 14, 2011, 05:11:07 PM
I wonder how Milner feels not even playing today?  Perhaps he has some remorse?

He has a medal. And is in the Champions league next season. And is picking up over 100k a week. I think he is happy with his lot.


Ruined as a player, but that is the price you pay for selling your soul I guess.

Like most modern footballers he won't give a shit.

Which is why I don't either.

He still would of been richer than he ever could of imagined growing up if he stayed with Villa.  How much money is enough?  The medal and Champions League berth should be hollow to him since he really had no input.

Probably thrilled to be in the Champions League and to be in a Trophy winning team rather than still being in a relegation battle with 2 games to go against Arsenal and Liverpool

Fair enough, but then again you do seem to read a lot about players who feel detached from a trophy win because they played no part in it. Roy Keane felt the same about the 1999 CL Final but then again he's an insaniac.

Can I ask where has this myth come from that Milner never plays.

Man City have had 56 games this season.

Milner has started 28 of them !!! and appeared on the game at some point as sub in another 11

Thus he has played in 39 out of 47 games. Thats a hell of a lot and more than most other players. Only Joe Hart has played most of them, Kompany , Barry and Silva have played more than Milner, and everyone else (big players) has played roughly the same

So, he left us for a club who weren't in the champions league, saying he wanted to get the club into the champions league , and he has.

He said he wanted to win medals - and he has in his first season.

And he now earns over 10000 pounds per week.

I don't think it is too stupid of me to say I bet he is absolutely ecstatic !

And that goes for Barry to

39 out of 47 or 56? If it's 56, as you originally said, then he's started half (28) of them. For someone who ''kicks every ball'' that must be frustrating. Ultimately, today was their biggest game of the season and he was an unused sub.

That doesn't hide the fact that his best performance this season was for us,and the talk of him being the future of Englands midfield has gone quiet.

But he's not ours anymore,so fcuk him,im sure his time will come again,but not at City.

He is at a club who have just won the cup and who will be playing in the champions league next season.

We've spent the season fighting relegation.

I don't imagine he will be too distraught at the way things have panned out

Jimmy seems to have a habit now of leaving clubs and then they turn crap, Leeds, Newcastle and Villa. Lets hope he has the same effect on Man City.

No, but he wouldn't be human if he wasn't pissed off at not playing yesterday as always seems to happen fir the key matches. A lot of fuss is going to be made about it because it is their first trophy and he will not be part of it. If he's got any sense he'll know that the additional signings they'll make because of the champions league will probably limit his chances further next season. If he wants to play in the important games he's likely to be disappointed.

I very much doubt that he'll move, unless he falls foul of the 25 man rule, and if he dd it wouldn't be to us but I'm sure it hasn't worked out how he wanted so far.

How many premier league games has he started for them though? He started against Spurs but in most of the other ones, he seems to have been a sub?

He's someone who loves playing to me so I actually think he'll be really disappointed he was just a sub when he was the main man for us last season.

His FA Cup winner's medal and games in the Champions League next season will probably help ease the occasional disappointment of not playing every match.

Post by: Pete3206 on May 16, 2011, 08:48:42 PM
I honestly don't understand the clamour for Milner. He's a decent player, but Villa were paid an insane amount of money for him and we should move on. And we should see what a full season of Fabian Delph would do.
