Magic Lamps

IIRC we lost 2-1. Eto'o opened the scoring. Then Wickham struck and Borini penalty to kill our title bid. That dirty ass celebrated scoring against an ex-club

Why should he be congratulated? Scoring goals is his job. To use Balotelli's brilliant analogy. Noone congratulates a postman when he delivers the mail.

Good thing is at least Hazard can be Spared this dreadful shit calles international break. WHO even needs those Damn friendlies and qualifiers.

Costa will surely relish having Fazio back

the spoiled kid in me wants a deadline day signing. City outcasts Richards and Nastasic would be nice.

MOTD has become even more pathetic. Lineker to Neville: "Wilfried Zaha - what are his strengths what are his weaknesses" Neville: "He has wonderful ability." Then talks about Manchester Utd.

fair enough. But how many quality homegrown CBs or CM/DMs are available? When we once again don't register our 3rd goalie, Schwarzer, we got one space in the non-HG contingent anyway. How about a last minute bid for unsettled Sami khedira

What do you think, any chance of us signing a CM on deadline day after the MvG departure?

Welcome to Stamford Bridge. Hope he does what we expect from him

Do you really think Lewis Baker will be played in more matches than the odd COC third or fouth round? When there are no options with first team experience Jose will rather overuse the senior players.

I don't get it why we have to loan out every player we don't play right now. We can not go through a 60+ games season with such a paperthin squad where we only have 4 central midfielder. This way we could not even play 4-3-3 regularly.

Stoke have always had a well organised defence. It will be a tricky place to go also for us. I am particularly fond of Ryan Shawcross. For such a orthodox defending Stoke side he is a pretty modern defender. He is anamazing header of the ball tall with a big leap too, strong and rather quick for a defender. Ok ball control and passing. Also he is so consistent I don't remember a bad game from him. Could be one solid back up for us.

And to those bashing the linesman for the Iva goal: Only half of his fuckin thigh was offside, whilst the jagielka played the rest of his body onside. How on earth shall u see that? when in doubt don't flag is what the rules say and which is exactly what he did. If Hernandez socres against us a car length offside no one talks about it, but in a fuckin 6-3 win for us every ManU cunt pundit will be bitching about half a thigh offside.

This game had shown why Mou wanted Benatia. But we have 6 month to assess our current cbs and maybe make an addition in January. defenders usually have not that high expecations on them hence have more time to click than e.g. strikers. That is also probably why Mou has left luis out of the squad for the first 2 games. I trust JOse to make the right choice with few quality Cbs available

What pleases me about this match is that, let alone scoring 6 vs everton , we would not have had the character to survive that kind of pressure and get 3 points out of here.

so many mistakes and brilliant actions from everyone. Incredible match. Costa is a monster on the ground but shit in the air, loses every long ball. Ramires can be a real quality player. The defense really has to be improved somehow. Better sign another centreback (?). Courtois is not invincible at last. Matic can also score goals, FAbregas takes himself a rest at times.

yes what an awkward goal but well done. Diego might be shit in the air but he is a monster on the floor

this game is bought

this should be game over

fabregas has been awful for quite a while this game

this is shocking defending. absolute shocking. should not let this happen

yeah but on the other hand he can make a goal out of nothing like here

we are losing every 2nd ball. have to up our performance for once

I heard Micah Richards, Scott Sinclair and JOhn Guidetti have been exlcuded from the ManCity squad. Probably they will leave permantently, maybe even Guidetti. How about a cheeky bid for Richards and Guidetti? Both are beasts at their best. Amazing what a squad City have that they can release players of that quality.

Rumours are, a deal for Torres with us paying a good deal of his wages would give us first refusal on de Sciglio and El sharaawy. This would be a jose masterpiece. Guying out a player who would not leave otherwise + selling this as an act of grace to Ac milan
