City v Toffees Semi-Final Thread

[KunDB]

Come on City

Caballero, Clichy, Demichelis, Otamendi, Zabaleta, Toure, Delph, Fernandinho, Silva, Sterling, Aguero

Subs: Hart, Sagna, Angelino, Navas, Fernando, De Bruyne, Iheanacho

[Leewonpen]

Think we have to score at least 3 to go through. Be interesting to see how we actually line up......Delph on left?

[Stephen Paul]

Good team , hopefully go through

[Swiss]

I bloody hope not, we've tried that twice to no avail.


I think it should be


------Delph-----Dinho-------
Silva-----Yaya--------Sterling
-----------Kun----------------

[Swiss]

I'll give yaya his due there, he was the first mid back in the box when Demi was out paced, Clichy was nowhere in shot!

[Ludo]

Otamendi is a tool

[Stephen Paul]

So is Sterling if you are going on the last few games

[Swiss]

Otamendi is a tool

I don't really get this hate campaign against him...

Clichy should have closed the gap and so should demi

[Ludo]

He dived in needlessly when he simply had to stand his ground. After that the space simply opened up for Berkeley.

[Swiss]

Yer, it was a poor stumble tackle. But it was 40 yards out, Delph I think moved away rather than close him down and Clichy just stood on the edge of the box.
Demi made moves to close him down but he was too slow.

With everyone changing positions, no one is picking up the runners, or just letting them go.

[lee]

need some proper width now...kev or jesus 2nd half and take sterling off..he's bobbins

[Lekos]

Pure rookie from Otamendi

[Stephen Paul]

get sterling off

[Ludo]

He's been better than silva

[Ludo]

That ball was sooooo out

[Swiss]

Made up for the Penalty we should have had

[Tricky Trev]

There goes the season(KDB). At least we get the opportunity to get smashed by Liverpool again!

[Lekos]

Gutted about KDB but more than happy with another trip to Wembley

My thoughts entirely, looks like a bad fall that one

[Lekos]

It does look quite bad, probably ligament damage. May well be out for a good few weeks 

[KunDB]

Great performance, great win. Well done Cabellero, played great.

Gutted about KDB! Lets hope not as bad as it looks,

[Rowley Birkin QC]

Some of the Everton tackles in the last 10 minutes or so were a little too tasty for my liking.

Great win!

[KunDB]

Media morons whining on about second goal being out, what about the penalty not given , the post saving Chelsea twice. Crap talkers.

I thought the ref was a bit lenient on the tackles from the off

chelsea?

[Ludo]

a good result a a few good performances, notably KDB, Sterling, Fernandinho and Aguero.

Otamendi needs to stay on his feet more.

[nimrod]

Great win

Ball was out but things evened up after the lack of penalty 1st leg

[goat]

otamendi is alan kernaghan with a hipster makeover

[KunDB]

chelsea?

You know what I meant, even if I seemingly didn't. lol

Everton got their just desserts in the end. Good to see Martinez whinging about shit refs again. Well played City, we played some great stuff and were well worthy of the win. Shame about De Bruyne who was superb. Hope he is back soon. Sergio awesome again. Otamendi  is a riddle - reckless and silly for their goal and yet did some great tackles.

Dunno why people don't turn up for these games - it was much more entertaining and atmospheric than the average league game.

Some good tackles yes but for most of them he was on his arse.

I did not turn up because I am snowed in and the airline cancelled all flights on Friday and Saturday. As for now, I have no idea when I will be able to get off this mountain. 

[goat]

did you try shooting the snow?

[Victoria]

did you try shooting the snow?

Yes I did, but I missed 

[bluebrendan]

I was fuming when he fouled Kone just outside the box late in the game, he needed to stay on his feet there but as he so often does he dived in.
