(although at least a fit Kompany is a better bet at CB than Richards)


Even though he gets the man alot and like today gets sent off Zabba is better at stopping the man getting a cross in. Richards just gets shrugged off and lets people get a ball in too easily. He's already been at fault for one LEGAL goal today.

Tevez working hard - good to see. We are really missing Bellers.

We should still be pressing for the points on the break we can still win this with the quality we have on the park.

Of little use if he gets sent off

nobody will doubt Zaba's commitment to the cause but he's just seriously lacking in the 'smarts' department
And its not a language problem, either: you get one yellow card, just be careful with your behaviour ever after.
What could be simpler?

We've got problems all across defence at the moment excluding Toure when fit and Given, you have to make the most of what is available. Who else would you play there with the current squad?

Fucking hell, Ireland and Santa Cruz coming on. Have to say I'm surprised. Not surprised by the penalty decision, I wonder why!?!

Well, Hughes explained the megabillions spend on RSC that he would win us games like this. Time to deliver.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
