Set piece defending again - no mids to clear the 2nd ball - training groung stuff but in reality the game should be over - Tevez should have a hat-trick in the bag but overall he´s been excellent - just want 3 points here then Ade´s back

Fucking hell we have been amazing except for 5 minutes in that half I think the only player who has made mistakes is De Jong(only a couple though) who isn't playing his full self today and giving too many free kicks away. to be fair though they falling over like fairys I mean how the fuck does SWP push anybody over? He's TINY!

funnily i thought hes been one of our best players if anythin barrys been a bit under par....

I really can't understand how people are slaggin on De Jong. The man is a DMF. he IS doing his job

I'm not slagging him off bro trust me in fact I been sticking up for the guy look through the posts.. I saying he the only player probably made a mistake tonight if any players have as he gave away the most free kicks and the one that got them their goal. How the hell is that slagging him off?

Lescott has been the standout this half and not for the right reasons.

[ronk]

Watching the replay of our first goal, really impressed with the run of Bellamy. He opens the lane for Tevez, smart.

[Blue In Bolton]

Who's the drunk scouser (I think) commentating for ESPN? He's crap.

Joe Royle

What about Paul Walsh on Fox Sports? Never guess that he was an ex-blue with all the shite he is coming out with.

[Niall Quinns Discopants]

Did we sign Lescott because he is a very good player or to destabilise Everton one of the teams around us? I still can't quite make up my mind about him, mind you Bridge was a slow starter till he hit the slim fast

It's not so much that Lescott is poor but that they aren't clicking with Toure at all. It will come in time though. Both are individually good players but need to adapt to each others game.

[shawzy]

IMO,Lescott is the weakness in the team.

Really? Each to there fookin own.
Brill half by city.Football at times has been world class.Keep it goin lads..We luv yas

[CitizenYank]

Anyone want to start a collection to get Petrov's left foot bronzed??

I do think he isn't clicking also but hes getting better with each game.. Still better than the fella he replaced who shall not be named.. It be a good night tonight :)

I think Shaun has been very good, really does the job at both ends. Barry has been okay, same with Nigel. Nothing spectacular there but keeping things tidy in the middle.

[King Kev]

Green is shite. We need to shoot on sight... and have a player following each shot in as Green has demonstrated a few times that he can't hang on to the ball!

He can't hang on probably as were sticking shit loads of power on them shots. I think our problem the first half has been we have been shooting them straight at the wanker (I really hate the fucker I dunno why...) rather than in the other direction like with Petrovs free kick.

[avoidconfusion]

Anyone else impressed with how much Bridge has improved?

Also, does anyone think Richards should get back in the starting 11 if Zabbs keeps playing like this?

To be fair, that Petrov volley for example, no keeper in the world would've fully held it.

Yes about Bridge mate I think he finally got the Chelsea shit behind him and got his confidence back and as for Zab he will keep Richards out the starting lineup if he keeps up his play from tonight. He wasn't as able in the cup game though last week..

[DoomMerchant]

we need to step on their neck 2nd half early...and quit fucking about with these guys. Should've had at least 3 or 4, but some beautiful stuff played for sure.

Zabs has been okay...really hasn't been anyone who has been brilliant or shit....if we are gonna point at an individual I think Lescott has been poor, but he has done some good things as well.

Bridge pace and stamina is amazin.Really coming into his game now.Top 1st half on the left with Petrov

[Slim]

There is a big difference between Jimenez and whoever their left back is coming at you or Evra and Giggs.

Of course he looks better than Richards did last week.

Is it just me or is Diamanti really fucking unlikeable.
