Beautiful goal. We're looking good with everybody playing, very good.

[DoomMerchant]

Well done. Even Mcmanonman liked that one.

[Blue_Manc]

Get in there son!

[Sideshow Bob]

Nasri is brilliant when motivated.

[Clowncrete]

Great goal. Nasri has improved after Mancini's "50% interview".

[s1ty m]

How the fuck is that a freekick? If you run head first into a brick wall, it's not the wall's fault ...

[Beefymcfc]

Sit down Fat Sam.

[sidSmith]

Webb you really are a joke! How is that a free kick and what the fuck is the big fat purple faced cunt moaning about?

Why do we ALWAYS take the foot off the gas after scoring the first goal?

We don't

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Bit of a flat game and atmosphere. To be expected tho I guess.

[Beefymcfc]

Started off really well and very much in control. Looked like we started to sit back for a few minutes which allowed them to get a little confidence but was glad we came again near the end of the half. Is this a plan, knowing that they've got to get people forward pushing for a goal, I'm not sure?

Wasn't happy with their targeting of Dave though and some of their tackles were very rash. Due to that, I noticed a few of our players getting out of the way and who can blame them, the chance of a FA Final taken away by some stray boot of a Rag lay-down. And for that, what was Smith on, saying that players aren't really arsed about playing in a cup final. What a fucking knob-jockey that bloke is.

More of the same second half please but this time put the game to bed. I don't want to be going into the last 20 thinking they've got a chance.

PS. How many direct balls did they play?

Why do we ALWAYS take the foot off the gas after scoring the first goal?

It may have looked like that but with half-time stats like this, we're still well on the pace.

68% Possession 32%

8 Shots 3

4 On Target 1

314 Passes 136

100% Tackles Won 90%

There's little you can do about their longball game, and that's most of their play.

I like to think of it more as a typical man city style goal
