City v Baggies Thread

[93:2012]

Starting 11 - Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany (C), Mangala, Clichy, Navas, Fernando, Lampard, Silva, Bony, Aguero

Subs -  Caballero, Sagna, Demichelis, Milner, Fernandinho, Jovetic, Dzeko

Come on time for the real City to find their feet again.

No Yaya or Milner both meant to be injured but Milner on bench?

Fernandinho on bench?

Lampard starting instead of injured Yaya, is that the best midfield replacement we can field, oh dear?

Mangala reinstated Demichellis benched.

Navas back in, Fernando back in (why?).

[silvablue]

Seven changes from Barca starting 11.

Pissing around with centre back pairing yet again. Wonder why Kmpany is finding it hard to find form and our defence struggling to keep a clean sheet. Answers on a post card to MP Eitihad stadium.

fernando and lampard in the middle to start, enjoy the 3 points west brom

Surely performance should dictate who oplays and who fumes on the bench. Not seemingly with Manuel - how you perform or massively underperform is not relevant to selection as rotation is first and only priority seemingly.

[KunDB]

I cannot fathom what the sending off was for?

[Ludo]

Can someone tell sergio that he's allowed to pass occasionally

[Ludo]

I cannot fathom what the sending off was for?

The foul perhaps?

Although it was the wrong man.

[KunDB]

Good man Bony now they will flow and flow.

[Swiss]

Nice touch and a sure finish from bony

29. Almost two as Gael Clichy's cross-cum-shot finds the side netting

like yaya?

Yaya who is injured and cannot play.

[Swiss]

Thats what they're officially telling us...

[KunDB]

Aguero trying too hard. Hope he gets a goal.

[Ludo]

I the midst of all that we scored from a corner!

Yes exactly my point.

[Swiss]

Can pick Fernando against the baggies everytime!

[Rowley Birkin QC]

What a strange game! Going to be very interesting to hear what the explanation for that sending-off will be.

In these circumstances it's going to be hard to judge our performance. I do hope Pellers doesn't take too much away from this... such as... "Fernando and Lampard - yeah, that worked"

Two bearded centre backs that look pretty similar, one wearing 25 one wearing 23.

Seen worse although BT sport are intent on making a mountain out of it.

[Tricky Trev]

What a feckin gift from the ref. Abysmal.
