Win a pot
Play exciting football
Get a fortress mentality back at the Etihad
Finish above the rags and dippers
That's it really

Joe Hart between the sticks, Kolarov to never adorn our shirt again and Pep to stop being a dick for starters.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Two new forwards, especially ones not made of glass.
A new goalkeeper.
Take a chance with some of our youngsters - we've not so much to lose now, so they might as well be allowed to show us what they can do.
Play some great attacking football and be the League's leading scorers.

Two top quality centerbacks to that and we are sorted for the year.
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?

Well this is the biggest problem facing us and the rot has already set in.
Given our resources, the magnificent job soriano continues to do to ensure ffp is a fart in the wind finally and the fact that we have a total winner and the best manager in the world running the show, I can't see what else could stop us.
Pep knows already the players he needs and won't be able able to get them in this window of course.
Some on here wouldn't even have us wait until then to get rid of him.
And we have shit loads of empty seats and thousands leaving early. I'm told this is a protest because of the terrible football we have to endure but I don't believe it for one second.
In short, I'm with you all the way. My new year wish is the very same as yours.

For Pep to succeed and for us to sweep all before us with total football.

Its a long list this year.
Goalkeeper who can dive.
2 fullbacks who can actually defend.
A proper centre back.
A central midfielder.
The manager to stop making errors.
Strikers who put the ball INTO the goal.
Desire.
Determination.
We need all of the above.
For now 1 or 2 of them would do.

2 defenders and a more attack minded approach.
Play exciting football.
I don't want much out of city.
Tracking back is overrated.

For me, he should be getting more from the players we have. In 90 minutes at Anfield, Aguero didn't have one touch inside their box. Alarm bells should have been ringing at half time, not 89 minutes.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

He should be getting more, but it would probably mean changing the system to suit two or three players.
I'd like to think this is short term pain for long term gain.
I certainly fucking hope so!

We could make a bid for Ashley Young.

I would add, rather naively perhaps, uncorrupt officiating

There was no excuse for fans leaving at around 80 mins in such a delicately poised match - shit fans
