    Nightmare of a game. Nothing went right. Just one of those days I guess although they're becoming more of a regularity. It'd be a miracle if the league was won now, even for City it's probably too far of a stretch.

    Haven't seen all that much of him but has Bony been anything but awful since joining City?

    Early days yet but he has been pretty crap so far, can only hope he improves. I'm not too worried about strikers though, midfield and right wing is where we need to add some quality imo.

    Marco Reus would be a dream signing.

    Pellegrini won the bloody premier league for you. Talk of getting rid because you don't win a league the following season? Christ on a bike.

    Kompany doing what he always does. At least hes not getting away with it anymore. At last, people seem to be noticing.

    Ye were robbed of a penalty as well lads, now ye know how we feel all season. :o

    That was never a penalty. Zero contact with Zab and the ref was brave and rightly booked him for diving.

    Tbh. if we win against Barca on Wed. I won't care about the epl anymore.

    Man Citys form this year has been poor. Crystal Palace has won more games this year than them. It took City to mid Feb to win a game since new years day.
    Not good enough, it's mid table form at best.

    Agreed. We've been poor since we blew a two goal lead at home on the sunday after Christmas to, ironically, Burnley. It's simply not good enough.

    If some form doesn't come soon then they will be dragged into the race for 3rd and 4th .
    Arsenal look likely to push on and take second in the coming weeks.
    Arsenal V Chelsea on 26th April could be a title decider.

    I didnt see him fetting booked, did he produce a card ya?

    Agreed, Chelsea have a six point lead and two games in hand and mourinho is pragmatic, the title is 99.9% decided.
    City's indifferent recent form has merely allowed Chelsea to pull away again.

    I think arsenal stand a fair chance of getting second though.

    We'll have played Leicester 4 days before that so we should be a few points ahead at that stage but it could be a pivotal game alright.

    If ye keep up yere form ye'll walk into 2nd as City have slowed down.

    I wouldnt say the title is over, if we drop points tomorrow todays result wont be as a bad for City and rhe league.

    I would not be surprised. Arsenal and Liverpool are the form teams in the league right now.

    With the form we are in, it would not shock me if we beat Barca and then lose to West Brom.

    Title race is over imo. Only thing remotely exciting about the league now is the battle for fourth.

    Give over. The way we're playing (or not, actually), you'll be champions by the beginning of May.

    I dont share yere confidence lads.

    Drop points tomorrow and its far from over.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    How do ye think we should set up tonight lads? Anyone optimistic we can win? I really think everything will have to go perfectly for us to have a chance, Aguero and Yaya will need to be at their best. Team I'd like to see.

    Aguero
    Silva Milner
    Fernandinho Yaya
    Fernando
    Kolarov Mangala Kompany Zab
    Hart


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,039 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    the players will have to give 100% for the 90 minutes to have any chance

    don't see that happening on current form

    I think we will get a hiding unfortunately really hope im wrong


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,480 ✭✭✭rwbug


    As well as Barcas brilliance we have to put up with a non show from Nasri and Milner giving the ball to them at every opportunity. I really hope Milner doesn't sign that contract.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,084 ✭✭✭✭Kirby


    Aguero's missed penalty ruined you.

    A great performance from Hart though. Fair played to him, it has to be said. He was man of the match.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭stiffler123


    Outclassed for the most part. We made a game of it in the last half hour, if that penalty went in who knows. Proud of Joe Hart tonight though, he was immense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 378 ✭✭Sikpupi


    Toure let himself down tonight. Major shop window for him and he played as if out of his depth.

    Might be best all round if he moved on.. And bring the chip on his shoulder with him. Delighted Pelligrini hauled him off.... A lesson on who really runs the team.

    I'd forget about getting a cake this year if I was him!!

    Shop window? He's working for the most expensive shop in the world. He was symptomatic of the team, they didn't play for each other and didn't care enough.

    Consistently one of our best players, instrumental in us winning the league last year. Doesn't play well against Barca and "might be best if he moved on". Are you for real? Have you seen the stats of our results without Yaya in the team this year?

    On what planet is Nasri worth £180,000 a week?

    He is dreadful.
