Mata will warm a bench in Brasil

[Rmpr 8,977]

Not really bothered as to whether or not City lose points today. If they win it will only be part of the schedule...

[Ainsley Harriott 2,732]

Mata will warm a bench in Brasil

If he even makes it there.

Mata will warm a bench in Brasil

Will Mata even be in Brazil to begin with?

Red card fucked up Hull's game plan much more than City's, especially with the goal. It suits City much more to sit back and counter. Hopefully Bruce comes up with something that changes that.

For those asking, it's only a one match ban as is always the case with denying a goal scoring opportunity:

I missed the first half. Where Hull that bad or just unlucky?

And Kompany will only miss City's game against Fulham (Fulham!) next week and not say plus Arsenal and Man United.

[bushman 2,043]

Hull could help Chelsea here. However, it certainly does not look that way.

till Kompany got RC, Hull played much better

KEVIN WOODFURNACE has explained all this to us.

The Illuminati are watching.

Hull were better in the opening 10 mins and looking dangerous on the break. Then Kompany got sent off and City sat back. Hull looked like they didn't know what to do with all the possession.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

I refuse to believe Bruce sat there and let them play shit against 10 men for 35 minutes without making a quick change. It's like he does not even want to win this.

Lol this goal changes nothing. Silva is better than mata, and has always been better for Spain.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Much better from Hull, so far.

[iceman 329]

Lol this goal changes nothing. Silva is better than mata, and has always been better for Spain.

Silva's goal you said? come on, it's my opinion since Mata played for Valencia

[Shane 2,275]

Fancy Mata to get his first for United tomorrow actually. Did it in our derby games against Arsenal and big games against United.

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

Does this team know the offside rule? So amateur

[cosmicway 1,333]

City down to 10 men.

Siege of Troy.
