Distraught, United really need more in the middle of the park for the last few seasons now. Need a battler with a bit if skill.

Really surprised when I saw the team sheets, thought Evan, Valencia and welbeck should have been on for Jones, park and giggs at the start.

Feck all has happened? Have you posted this in the 15+ Liverpool match threads that have gone for 1k+posts at 20x the nonsense. Incredibly selective.

Nothing has even happened yet.

Genuinely have no idea how you can say I have a short memory when you are referring to some mystery from 5 years ago when I wasn't even on the Soccer forum.

My remark wasn't sneaky or childish, just a bloody joke. You have to be able to take as well as give. But Utd fans can't which can be evidenced by their lack of presence on this thread tonight.

Sir Alex complaining to jeff shreeves that Mancini was badgering the ref all through the game .

tayto lover · 30-04-2012 10:32pm

Overall it was a poor game but the importance of it probably had a lot to do with that. As a neutral (Arsenal fan) I thought it was a poor affair.
I felt that Ferguson picked a team not to lose. Vidic was badly missed.
City are no world beaters but were the better team tonight. They have more strength in depth.

I don't think anyone should be slagging Man Utd who have been great champions and are not done in this Championship yet. Many a slip yet.

I am all for banter, Jesus I think banter is what makes these forums. The mystery was about the six times shirts and the bus that ye had ready to celebrate the win. Didnt want bring it up though.

But your post....well was not banter. I think you proved that with your last point anyway.

We just agree to disagree.

What has the six times shorts and bus got to do with me?

I think you're just bloody over-sensitive or obviously upset over result and I'll stand by my view that if Utd had won tonight then this thread would be full of gloating photos and GIFS.

Depressing. Don't know how Giggs got 90 mins. Park needs to be shipped out the gap. Serious money needs to be spent on midfield.

Can only hope Newcastle do us a favour now but I don't think they will after their capitulation against Wigan. Better team won tbh, United hadn't one really clear cut chance. Valencia should have f**king started!

As a neutral, I thought it was a really one sided game. City should have won by 4 or 5 IMO.

Yes and they play type football that we don't seem to like playing at minute.

They are in bad form alright, but no 3 point certainty.

I presume Fergie will complain about Rooney badgering the ref all game too?

Sour grapes, I can't believe they didn't manage a shot on target. They started on the front foot, but when the dust settled Man City were too strong.

I think Fergie got his selection wrong, and he has not done that too many times down the years.

markesmith · 30-04-2012 10:45pm

Watched the game in Fagan's (Galway :rolleyes:) tonight. Couple of lads wearing City scarves/jerseys. Never ever seen that before. We'll see a lot more of it in the next couple of seasons.

Love the way Mancini has been constantly calling the Swansea and Sunderland games easy. He's already gotten exactly the reaction he wanted with both Rodgers and O'Neil getting their backs up a bit.

He's giving them something to play for at a time of the season they wouldn't have otherwise.

Rooney didn't look a happy man tonight, having a go at the ref at every chance, some really dodgy passes as well. He has done it all for utd I think he may need a new challenge or maybe I'm talking bonkers.

Yeah, I remember back in the early 90's when united jerseys started to appear when they started winning things so climb down off that high horse you're on!

CptMackey · 30-04-2012 10:51pm

I have calmed down a bit now so I can't post. We were simply not good enough tonight. City were constantly attacking and always looked dangerous. We never looked like scoring.

Park looked like he had been up for 72 hours straight. Why didn't we start we Valencia?

It's out of our hands now

Honestly, i think two astute purchases in centre mid and United would be a different team.

Believe it or not there has been a Man City supporters club in the Western Bar in Eyre Sq. for many many years:)

They've even been recognised by the club.....

Mancini is playing a stormer. Even tonight he's saying Utd are still favourites :pac:

Not a big fan of 'mind games' this & that, but those who think they hold merit must think Mancini is making mince meat of Ferguson in them.

United taking 4 points from their past 12 since going 8 points clear?
Any other manager in the world & we'd be hearing all about cracking up/choking etc etc.

City would have raced away with the league if Mancini didnt throw a hissy fit over Tevez mid season.

If Tevez wasn't kicked out, he'd be player of the season at this stage as he's world class.

United are choking, no doubt about it. In fairness though, all season City have looked more likely and you can't argue with being rightfully beaten twice.

Tonight was shocking, poor selection, poor tactics, no answers. Five minutes in and you could see what was going to happen, for all intensive purposes it was United v Barcelona for the third time and with the same result as the previous two.

City will take the title now, and a great (and perhaps last for a while) chance to go to 20 has slipped away.

About 20 minutes ago I was up for City to win the league.
After seeing the Mancini interview there about him saying Sunderland and Swansea are two easy games I don't know what to think, I know it's only mind games btw.

I'd find it fúcking hilarious though if Sunderland and Swansea let United walk all over them with United scoring 10 in each game and United winning on goal difference :pac:

We have choked.

But after the way you have spoken about mind games in the past you even bringing it up, and then covering yourself by saying 'those who think they hold merit is a bit embarrassing. You could have gone after selection tonight before something you say you dont really believe in.
