    Impartial as ever the pundits.
    McManaman says it would be 'great' if the FA banned Ivanovic to see Mourinho's reaction

    Get in :) massive win, that is a huge blow to City to be 2-3 minutes away from pegging us back to 5 points, and the kind of a blow that could be a knockout!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    Does Costa know what flag to stand behind at all, hes some country whooooore :pac:

    We've only left in 4 goals at home all season.

    Fortress


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,311 ✭✭✭weiland79


    Things are looking good and I'd be cautiously optimistic about the league. I do feel we could be doing better in the final third, how many shots on goal did we have tonight?
    Zouma I thought was really excellent tonight and had the measure of lukaka.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    I loved Costa's passion in the stands, looked like a true fan!

    Funny thing is, we haven't really hit our stride since Christmas and we look like we're barely getting out of 2nd gear in some matches yet we are still 7 points clear.

    Hoping now with Cesc and Costa back and fresh and raring to go and Cuadrado settling in quickly we can really turn it on in the business end of the season and make a serious push for the CL.

    We've a very tough game against Spurs in the Carling Cup too, some revenge is due.

    Ya, Costa just loves the game with him and Cesc back, Willian finally adding goals/assists and Cuadrado coming in we'll be a force.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    Ditto on the revenge for Spurs too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    We need more costa passion for the run in

    Costa just needs to add a bit of aggression into his game and he'll be sorted, said no-one ever.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭MaroonAndGreen


    39 points left to play for... if we get 28-30 points id be very confident, cant see City getting 35+, it would need them to go unbeaten..

    Id agee we have 7 home games left and 6 away.

    If we can win most our home hame games and half the away we'll be sorted.

    Cech seems more comfortable saving lowdown shots, which courtois is kind of weak at. Most of courtois' goals conceded have been low shots while he's usually reliable at those high shots. The flaws of being 6"7 I suppose.
    On the other hand Cech can let himself down with those high shots sometimes, the first goal against Bradford and aguero at the bridge last season spring to mind. Just a thought. What do ye think?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭MaroonAndGreen


    Burnley, Palace, Stoke & Sunderland should be 4 wins anyway... although I dont like saying that after how last season's run in went..

    Theres only an inch in height difference between, not very much really, in height terms anyway :pac:

    We're blessed that a keeper can have an ok game like the villa game and be replaced by Cech, we've two, first choice GK's.

    Courtois made a few excellent stops against pool so I reckon he would have easily got to Lukakus shot in the 1st half and the one from 3 yards is a roulette, if Cech doesnt save it you cant blame him but he did with very good footwork but Lukaku should be sticking those away, its a bad a miss as much as it is a good save.

    Not taking anything away from Pete, when hes played hes not made mistakes and the competition between them is good for both keepers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    Anyone see MOTD, they asked Jose a stupidly weighted question and he just shot off.

    He was asked about taking action against a Chelsea player if it turned out he done something wrong, Jose said his goodbyes and bolted, proper order.

    Have no love for CFC but wouldn't like to see Ivanovic banned for that, talk about feeding Mourinho's persecution complex.. we'll never hear the end of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    Moss was looking at the incident he showed of booked ivan for grabbing him the attempted headbutt was stupid from Ivan though and only leaves himself open toa ban but I dont think he'll be done.

    Apparently Cech played as JT was feeling ill and Jose wanted a leader on the pitch just incase, good call or good bluff. :pac:

    I checked
    Adult tickets for this match are priced £100, £90, £72, £56 and £40 with seniors (Over 65) and juniors (Under 16) charged 50 per cent of the adult price in the equivalent area.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing

    good on jose last night, no mention of the game just stupid questions about a non headbutt

    Lets be fair here. The question put to Jose was the exact same question put to Martinez. Word for word. And Martinez didn't storm off like a child. I have a lot of time for Mourinho but he needs to drop the attitude. The FA aren't against you Jose.

    If your players didn't break the rules, they wouldn't get banned. Costa deserved what he got and Mourinho is really acting the eejit over it.
