That wasn't because Jovetic was taken off, it was because Milner was also removed. Stupid substitutions from Pellegrini once again.

I said the other night; if you put him next to someone like Suarez, who loves a 1-2, either making the runs or making the pass, Jovetic would be fantastic.
Having said that, I think the Count should tell him to shoot more though, even if he hits the corner flag & causes a few whingy old cunts to moan. Some will go in, & that's what we need, for variety.

It was both. Milner was doing a good job keeping Di Maria quiet and Jovetic was supporting midfield.

Problem with Jovetic's shooting is he telegraphs it. You know he is going to drift in from the left wing put it onto his right foot just outside the box and have a crack. Its nice to see us actually shooting outside the box but we need to be a but more inventive.

Jovetic dropping back supporting midfield made a huge difference to us defensively. It stopped Yaya being drawn towards their sitting midfielder which meant they couldn't outnumber us in the middle. Aguero and/or Dzeko just doesn't do this enough.
Negredo was great for this too.

A talent of a player who we might need to adjust too, his lift over the rags defence in the 1st half was fantastic, he also had Smalling on toast, when allowed, in Sergio we do not have a player who wants to read a players mind, he has enough at international level, which Jovetic needs as he is seeing the big picture, Sergio is explosive, Jove, like Messi has that drift role and spots a pass his flicks are perfect if read, odd looking if not.The one to Nasri v the scousers, drifts in at the back post unmarked and makes a rising ball look easy to dispatch, Milner sub was just tinkering for no reason and back fired. Both players seem to want to play the game faster than others are prepared to.

Seriously ?
