Silva and Bony might change things, that's the only time I've seen us goal side of a red shirt tonight, something has to change

We look a little better against a side determined to defend and spoil, but it's not exactly flowing is it?

Blue shirts not quite in tune with each other and the occasional grumpy player debate going on when moves break down.

We are a disjointed team again. Lucky to be ahead.

Aguero leads the line brillantly.

Post by: Rowley Birkin QC on March 04, 2015, 21:45:43
Not bad - a wins is a win as clev says, and some good individual performances from the likes of Navas and Aguero.

We had too much quality for them in the end but still a few too many shaky moments. No idea what to expect next.

a few goals against the shit would have been handy for the goal difference but ill take what we can get now

Kompany, Zabaleta and Dzeko on bench, Nasri confirmed fit but not even on bench, Fernandinho not on bench. What should we read into that.

I think Pelle has finally shown he has balls and is cracking the whip finally dropping underperformers and sending a clear warning to players.

Milner is so hard done by never starting even with 5 changes, it bewilders me.

Top tech advice there from Bry.

Another pretty poor performance from City tonight. Really we could well have drawn that game. The atmosphere and crowd was poor. The atmosphere between certain players in the City team didn't seem too great either. Not a happy camp.
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Ludo on March 04, 2015, 23:24:14
Just noticed Aguero's reaction just prior to the first goal, not good.
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Zabba on March 04, 2015, 23:47:54
I assume you are referring to Aguero making a run but Yaya did not pass to him. Sergio stopped dead hands on hip shaking head while play went on. Sergio could have carried on into box but didn't watching instead.

Something not right.
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Ludo on March 04, 2015, 23:49:55
Yes and yes.
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Lekos on March 05, 2015, 09:03:15
There was a similar situation with Silva and Aguero.  Silva mistimed a through ball, or Aguero misread the play.  Either way they ended up having a bit of a go at each other.   
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Lekos on March 05, 2015, 09:03:53
Anyway, 3 points and another 9 should be the target from our next 3 league games.

My thoughts too, but it feels like he's already shown a better touch and an ability to hold the ball better then Dzeko. He's just snatching at chances atm.

Good, shows a bit of passion. I wouldn't mind a few on field arguments

The Foxes were due two penalties, we were lucky to come away with a win. The performance was very disappointing against the team propping up the league.
Yes Bony was trying, refreshing change to some of his established colleagues. He is a great signing and will do great things for us.


Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Rowley Birkin QC on March 06, 2015, 12:02:35
First 'penalty' was very soft - went down way too easily, but I certainly thought Leicester were hard done by on the second shout. The offence took place at least on the line if not in the box - so the Foxes should have had one penalty. Ref bottled that one.
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: bry the guy on March 06, 2015, 14:48:50
I thought the first was stone wall and the 2nd was a tangle if legs but both could have been given,
Title: Re: City v Foxes
Post by: Swiss on March 07, 2015, 10:16:49
The first? Bony? One angle shows the player trailing his leg behind and then going down. Not a pen for me but I wouldn't have been surprised to see it given.

Second? Was that the one where the ref gave afoul on the edge of the box? Missed the replay on that but yer, looked as though the fox player was inside but ours outside...

Third? The Hart diving save? Def not a pen that one.
