Man City v W HU

[BensGrandad]

Just watched a bit fo the game, 1 - 1 and 2 things were obvious Sven is a good manager given the time to get things right i.e 40+ games in a season as opposed to 10 as a national manager.

Man City goal was blatantly offside and should have been disallowed. Wonder what would happen if the offside rule was scrapped completely.

I'd be the best player in the world

Would teams like us leave Forster standing up near the penalty area which would mean our opponents leaving 2 players back to mark him.

Maheta Molango would be scoring goals for fun in our first team.

He's hardly needed 40+ games to get things right at City has he? He and his team hit the ground running.

isn't Dowd a crap ref, booking Noble for pointing out the wall wasn't 10 yards, and in the Everton game Arteta was booked for taking a free kick too early and not waiting for the whistle. They make life difficult for themselves by making stupid decisions

Noble was BLATANTLY taking the piss and the ref was absolutely right to book him. I wish more refs would do the same when players try it on.

The Arteta one was stupid though.

 

[Easy 10]

I didn't bother watching either game, but raked in £22 for an Everton away and City / West Sham draw. All other considerations are irrelevent as far as I'm concerned.

Could you please clarify that?

I can't quite grasp what's being said - as it seems that his team 'should' have lost today, yet you're saying he's a good manager.

I watched them on telly midweek, and they were quite poor apart from Petrov and Elano. Some of the players looked very lethargic, and it looked to me like return to boredom for MCity fans. Let's put it this way - I don't see them threatening the top 5 clubs this season, and would guess a high-mid-table finish for them.

 

[Hiney]

There's no way Man City will break into the top 5 if they play like that. I thought they totally lacked imagination and never really looked loike breaking West Ham down.

 

[Simon Morgan]

They've got some good players though. Petrov and Elano are the obvious ones, but Corluka, Gelson Fernandes, Johnson and Ireland are also very good.

 

[jevs]

We had the play and the chances to snatch a win but a draw against City at their gaff shouldn't be sniffed at.

Disappointed but looking back, i'm happy with a draw.

 

[BensGrandad]

I think that City will qualify for a European spot in the EUFA cup.
