3 at the back

Ding-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling! Alarm bells are ringing!
Hope Mancini knows what he's doing! saying that, he did this in the Charity Shield.....

we were good in the charity shield though.

silva dropped. sign your contract davey boy.

Think it's a decent lineup if we get at them early

kolo toure - not good enough
balotelli - still has silly strops and greedy bastid

we started pretty well, but let them get back into it and they are well on top now

Dont like it and Lpool away isnt a time to experiment .
Thought it was a strange line up Milner DeJong Kolarov in the midfield isn't inspiring
Why leave Lescott out? Kolo sorry mate your time is up

Was Clichy injured? If not, he should have been in. Kolarov just ain't good enough.

Lescott should have played, no need to tinker that much.

Milner for Silva i can understand after last week but we had no creativity whatsoever in midfield.

De Jong for Rodwell....ok, we needed a bit of steel in the middle.

Balotelli, another non discrpt and abject performance imo...not good enough. On reflection i'd rather have played Dzeko.

Overall, this team selection was a massive gamble by RM, but depite getting outplayed for most of the game we somehow ended up with a point.....which considering our record at Anfield isn't a bad result.

last week shane long caused the liverpool defenders all sorts of problems especially when they were on the ball.

we should have been doing more of the same and just let them miscontrol or hoof it up the pitch.

oh how we missed aguero

Clichey is on paternity leave, his misses has had a girl I think, so congrats to her and him, and welcome to the world of sleepless nights......,!
Mario I assist last season, given, it was one to win the title for Sergio, but he doesn't pass, needs a bollocking from Mancini, Dzeko has better feet and passes, so he should start in front of Mario until he learns to pass.
kolo, not half as talented as his brother, or as much as he thinks he is, a liability in defence, but a draw is a draw, at least we didn't get beat

Regardless of your beliefs.Lescott has earned his place in the team,and as previously stated congrats to Gael Clichy,but I hope he gets back real quick, the performance against the 'pool was wanting,to be kind.The only good thing is,if we can come away with a point after that there is hope,I just hope that we do not very many more games like it.Another bonus was that David Silva looked a lot better after his bit of a rest!!
