Man City 4 - 0 Newcastle United - 19/08/13 - post-'match' reaction from page 63


Recommended Posts

We need a serious shake up.

 

Revert back to 4-4-2 for me for the time being. Get a target man along side Cisse, (albeit it has to be Shola). Then get some solidarity about our play. We have no cutting edge and no defensive discipline.

 

We played 4-4-2 tonight.

 

Not according to Sky.

Sky were wrong, did you not notice the players on the pitch like ?

We won't ever get back to the unit we were with all these foreign players around imo.  Today's performance by some of them reminded me of Liverpool last season.

I'm not one to jump on the "French cowards" bandwagon but we're desperate for some quality premiership experience in the squad.

 

I really don't think it will matter too much tbh.  The cunt manager and the cunts above the line will poison everything they touch.

It goes beyond the manager this.  Carr has a lot to answer for, since he can only sign players from 1 stinking country.

City only had one more English player in their team than we did.

Thought Cisse started fairly well :dontknow:

 

Seemed to control the ball well from Krul's goalkicks :thup:

 

Thought Cisse started fairly well :dontknow:

 

He did, typical knee jerk stuff tonight. Passes to him, immediately crowded by 3 city defenders, no options on, no link between him and midfield (again). Sure his touch was poor tonight  but he's getting slated for not being an out ball target man tonight. He can actually link play just fine (he did it plenty when he first arrived).

 

Well thank fuck for you two. I know he tailed off badly fairly soon after as things generally descended into farce, but people don't half let rage cloud their judgement on here at times.

While i'm not raging, i tend to think a players first touch is very important, even more so for a front man to bring others into play. He was terrible and has been for ages, hopefully he'll get back to form, giving him a strike partner to hold the ball up will help, but he should be able to do the basics himself.

Just going back to what I said about 2011/12, we went the first 11 Premier League games unbeaten and set up the whole season with basically this side and formation almost exclusively.

 

Krul

Simpson S.Taylor Coloccini R.Taylor

Obertan Cabaye Tiote Gutierrez

Ba Best

 

Simpler times. :(
