Does Taylor get to have the blame for that goal or is it still knee-jerk/bandwagon to blame Taylor?

He tried to stamp on him and then headbutted him. Of course it was a red.

Harsh on Perch. He got a touch on the ball.

I think that is pretty much what it boils down to at this point.

We really need another striker to take some of the pressure off of Carroll, and to give us other options than lumping it into the box at every chance. We're scarily close to a long-ball team.

Taylor doesn't compliment Colo as well as Williamson does.

This.

taking the piss

Will be said a lot tonight I'm afraid. But totally true. Sometimes luck just ain't on your side.

Taylor leaving Tevez totally unmarked on the edge of the six yard box. Brilliant.

ooof! so close. HOWAY THE LADS!!

We're far too reliant on long-balls into the box for Carroll.

Take Tiote off?

Not a bad team selection today. Would've had big Willy in there though instead of Taylor.

Love this group of lads.

Let's hope he's just lowering expectations.

but, he's the Best Manager In the World™

I play 3-1-3-1-2 on Fifa and love it. Realistically it's not going to work though, especially with the growing love of a single striker up top, having three guys cover one person is a waste. It kind of looks like this: X X X X X X X X X X X

I honestly don't see Barton as the type of player to go elsewhere because he gets offered more money tbh. He really doesn't strike me as that type of guy. I think he's more concerned with showing what he can do on the pitch rather than what he does to fill the back pages at this point in his life.

Robbie Findley to Nottingham Forest.

Thank you Toure.

Fucking Zabaleta. What a cunt.

The Man City team just look like a team full of egotistical schmucks. I wouldn't be surprised to see some Dyer v Bowyer style incident this season. They look like they are all out there for their own personal gain and lose their shit so quickly.

I really enjoy Ian Darke and Steve McManaman but sometimes Darke really does speak in hyperbole and seems really off-base. Usually he's pretty spot on though.
