Manchester City v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Fergal]

I dont even think the teams that week to be fair, it ent the strongest but were capeable of much much better than this.
Its funny, earlier in the week Houllier had made us look good again, and now he's the worst thing ever. Make yer minds up

My mind is made up.  Fuck GH right out of the club.  If this is not the time to play our strongest team when is?
And no it's not funny at all...

The funny was as in strange funny, not haha funny
Well yeah it is our strongest team, maybe he feels this is a strong team capeable of winning the game, i dont think we've been that bad, 2 defensive mistakes and Petrov's been dreadful, thats all. I dont think were as bad as being made out.

You think this is our strongest team? Really?

May watch Masterchef instead in a short while.

We won the home game on the back of a massive signing and a great home support. We have been shite at City for years - no sign that is going to change. Learning that Delph is a good footballer and Bannan is exceptional. We retaining the ball much better, and have created 2-3 decent chances despite the scoreline. Poor defending twice has cost us dear, and some are showing they are not up to it. Petrov and Gabby both look poor.

I agree with all except Gabby, he hasnt looked too bad, some threatening runs. If we stick him up front we could do this i think

[Marlon's Hairy Wood]

I thought we'd loaned Stephen Ireland out

By the time we play the mighty Bolton the rested players will have played ONCE in 3 weeks

[Holtenderinthesky]

Don't bother making changes at HT Gerard.  We've already lost this thanks in part to resting our best players so no point risking them now.

[TheSandman]

Bannan is playing well.

Delph too... Other positives are hard to find.

A shame we can only have three subs as there are four or five players who are nowhere near good enough tonight.

I think I will take my bath now.

[Brian Taylor]

They have strength in depth ready to come on and don't need the ..we need a 1/2 doz to come on and hope.

No i put that wrong, i meant this isnt our strongest but its a strong team capeable of winning the game. I think two or three of them have let us down

Agree 100%. He can use his payoff to buy a ST at his beloved Anfield.

[Fergal]

Utter utter gash... I am running out of ways to vent my spleen.

[ozzjim]

Bradley, Petrov and Gabby have been our worst players. I actually think Bannan has been excellent and Delph looks a good footballer. WE have created openings though and could easily have nicked one. We are so poor at the back it is unreal though.

[andyh]

boooooooooooooo

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

I think I'd be more disgusted with GH if he completely changes the team at half-time rather than leave it as it is.

[eastie]

City are playing in neutral- they can step it up if they need to , gabby and heskey are not good enough to be here next season, deeply depressing evening- totally shocked by this.
