But if they don't like anything about the current team, then they're not exactly 'fans' are they? I'm not criticizing anyone because they want us to win. I'm criticizing people because they show no "support" to any of the players or any thing remotely related to the club. Go read the current squad forum, apparently after yesterday's match everyone in our team should be sold and replaced in the summer and no one is good enough except for Mata and Hazard, and even they have their critics on here. It's frustrating how fast we turn on our players. Ramires is not good enough and should be sold, Moses is not "Chelsea level" whatever that shit means, all of our CBs are shit, people called for Ryan Bertrand to get sold after one bad performance against Shakhtar, thank fuck he had a couple of good games so he;s back to being the next Ashley Cole and don't even get me started on the Mikel abuse. It just gets on my nerve sometimes how fickle people can be. What happened to supporting your team through win or loss?!!

I know where the word comes from, but since then it has been associated with glory-hunting fans. And this is exactly what some of our fans sound like. Well I guess this is just my negative opinion which I'm sharing on the forum just like everyone is sharing his negative opinions..

I just don't get it, if you hate the owner, the manager, the board and all the players, then why the fuck are you even on here?!

Well all people seem to have is negative opinions that imply that no one is good enough. Reading through the threads yesterday, we all sound like spoiled brats. I can completely see why other fans call us plastic. Talk about fickle..

This forum is sometimes so annoying to log on to after a defeat. Apparently all our players are shit, this is the worst season ever, all the refs and the FA hate us, the board are just kids who don't know how to do anything, and the manager is an idiot who knows nothing about football. Get a hold on yourself people, you all sound like over-dramatic teenage girls.

I don't get it, how was he supposed to see Kompany's shirt pull? Kompany was very smartly doing it from the front and the ref was naturally behind. As for the Aguero challenge, only the line man could see that and he just didn't have the guts to call it. In both cases I think Foy is blameless. We're just looking for excuses..

100% agree. Look at Kompany yesterday for example, we were all criticizing him, but I bet he will got a pat on the back from the manager because it was brilliant defending.

If we do fail to secure top 4 and win the EL then I would agree, but those are big 'if's. Perhaps we should wait till this season is over before we judge if it is the worst or not instead of having those knee-jerk reaction threads..

We've made the semifinals of the Carling, FA and EL so far. We didn't get anywhere near silverware in Carlo's second season and for the most part of it we were almost as far behind united as we have been this season.

Well the answer to your question depends, if you mean the worst season in terms of performances, that was last season, and I blame Lampard and the old guard for it. The worst season in terms of results was Carlo's second season, and I blame the board for not bringing new blood to replace the aging players.

Well when he was still on, the team was obviously instructed not to press and to sit deep. He had a similar performance to the rest of midfield in the time he was on the field which was below average because we were giving City all the possession. But I don't remember him doing any big mistakes..

Great great goal. Another one to add to his collection. It's shame it didn't affect the result. It's a game that is worthy to win any game.

He wasn't good today, but I didn't think he was particularly poor. Misplaced a couple of passes in the first half, but was average otherwise. Regarding the pressing, it's obvious the team was instructed not to press in the first half, not just Mikel. City were just allowed the ball in midfield while our team retreated to our box.

What was he doing for the first goal? Tracked Nasri to the edge of the box then just stopped for no reason. Criminal! Was decent otherwise, though.

He actually made a few similar mistakes in the first half that we got away with it. Even for the first goal, he was too far from Luiz. Very poor performance.

How so? What did he do wrong?

No point blaming the ref, imo. We started the game looking to park the bus just like we did at the Ettihad. When we finally started playing and taking the game to City it was too late. That said, City we very lucky to hold on and we were unlucky to concede in the 47th minute. Just wasn't our day. Mata, Ba and Bertrand were our best players today, imo. Iva was probably our worst. He made 2-3 huge mistakes in the first half that we got away with but eventually Aguero punished us.

One question, what was Ramires doing for the goal?! He tracked Nasri till the edge of the box and then just stopped!

No, no I don't. I reserve the right to loathe his slimy guts.

He's expected to be fit, but it's not 100%.

The topics are locked because some fans who helped me on previous opposition views have been insulted by some idiots here and have refused to help me again because of the that. The topics are locked because I don't want to upset the people who help do this to get upset so I can continue and do these opposition views in the future. It's only for matches against teams we have a rivalry with.

The main point is to read the opposition fans views. But whenever I do one for a game against a 'big' team, someone decides to be a prick and insult the people who took the time to help me in doing it. Naturally these people won't help me out the next time we play their team. So I'm locking the topics against big teams. If you really want to discuss what they said, do so in the match thread.

The forum will survive..
