Burnley vs City - Live Thread

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 2:37 pm

OK...so another big game where 3 points are vital. No slip ups today, no excuses after 10 days rest.

Be interesting to see who he plays today - Kompany and Fernandinho back? Bony to start? 4-4-2??????

For me, forget Barca....we need a good result and strong team out today. If Vinny's back, I can see him keeping DeM as he probably knows Vinny better.

For me, away from home, I'd go for this....but MP won't.

..............................................Hart.................................................

Zaba....................Vinny..........................DeM...........................Clichy

.............Milner.....................Lampard..................Fernandinho............

.........................TLMLF............................Silva................................

............................................Aguero..............................................

yeah, will do Oz.

I'll have it open about 16:30L to post the official team, so I'll post a link to for you and see if it works.

Sorry, I forgot to look into it for you this week. Let's see if it works today.

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 4:21 pm

OK Oz....here's the UK link to live match day:

Jimmy not even on the bench? Is he up to 10 yellows yet for a ban or is this the writing on the wall following on from Pelligrini saying they have done all they can to get him to sign.

Not happy about 4-4-2 but we need a big performance today before the trip to Spain. High Tempo from the start, blow them away like the good old days.

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 4:59 pm

Guess it's MP and the boards way of saying "thanks for your services, but you'll hardly play unless we need you"....damn shame if they've not done everything to keep him.

by skyblueoz Sat Mar 14, 2015 5:37 pm

Thanks Blue but I opened the city web page & there it was , first time in 4 weeks it has been visible. Trouble is I'm Buggered its 01.35am here & I can barely keep my eyes open, I think I have typed this about 4 times now.

by Guest Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:18 pm

Wow that was exciting. Glad you've tried something new MP, it really shows we've been working hard in training.

Got 0-0 or a horrible Stoke type break away all over this game. I'm not exactly brimming with confidence.

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:18 pm

Missing nothing mate...absolutely shite once again.

The Manager is even a stubborn fucker, or just plain wank.

Dzeko....once again, useless.

Get Dzeko off, get Nasri or Lampard on.

Oh, and while you're at MP, take that other lazy twat off - TLMLF.... Mad

Woeful display......but once again, shit formation, shit selection from the Chilean!

by Guest Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:24 pm

Seasons done, don't know why I'm still getting upset. Wednesday will just put the nail in the coffin, lets hope we can limp over the line still in the top 4. Then this joker should be gone and we start it all over again in the summer. We must be the easiest team to play against in the prem because every team has got our number.

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:39 pm

Listened to some of the 1st half on the radio and it sounded dire.

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:41 pm

One great chance but the rest has looked shit.

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:46 pm

Twat Dzeko

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:47 pm

Fuck off Dzeko. Fuck off MP.

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:48 pm

Dzeko turned his back. Shouldn't play for the club again.

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:49 pm

All teams have to do is keep it tight for the first 45-60 minutes and then go for us cos we are do easy to read.

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:50 pm

Arsenal one point behind us...

by Nijinsky Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:52 pm

An absolute disgrace what does pellegrini see when he sits on the touch
Line watching

by TMG Sat Mar 14, 2015 6:58 pm

Just beyond belief this ! We are worse than a bottom of the table team
Barca must be shitting themselves
1 more game to go then get rid of MP PLEASE

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:03 pm

I'm sick and tired of watching an inept manager and players that don't care.

by Guest Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:07 pm

Stopped watching at half time. It had this written all over.

Top 4 is going away from us like a steam train

by Nijinsky Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:13 pm

Are we now as bad as it gets or can we drop even lower than this. I really think we are going to be humiliated on Wednesday

by titbumwilly Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:13 pm

Outplayed by Burnley!
Thank you MP, but please leave my club now.

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:16 pm

GET RID of that useless cunt of a Manager...and take half of the other lazy twats with you.....including TLMLF!

United get slated for having Rooney, Falcao and RVP on over £200k pw..........and we have that lazy fucker lumbering around the pitch!!!

The Manager is a DEAD MAN WALKING....get rid now before the Barca game and get Viera in for training and selection before Weds....#luckymanagerandstilluseless

by TMG Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:17 pm

DISGRACE !!! FUCK OFF PELLEGRINI

by Nijinsky Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:19 pm

With any luck this shambles will be the end of MP

by Guest Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:25 pm

It was coming all day. We are in a proper mess.

by skyblueoz Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:40 pm

what as happened to city??? they look like rabbits in headlights, no fight, can't pass, slow & lethargic even when urgency is called for, I don't remember 1 second ball we won, why can,t the players see a situation & act upon it? When Kompany headed clear the free kick not one player followed the ball we had 4 stood on the left of the goalmouth marking 3 players who were not in the game? when going forward the distance between the front players & midfield is ridiculous we trying to find 1 or 2 players when they had 8 behind the ball & the other 2 were closing down our players carrying the ball out. well that's it for me as much as I have always said wait till the end of the season I am now definitely in the pel out camp, This is not a knee jerk reaction but after watching us go down hill at a rate of knots since xmas is a throw back to the bad old days of the 80's & late 90,s. How can a club with so much going for it cock it up as many times as we do???????

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 7:54 pm

He's a twat. It's that simple.

TLMLF....what the fuck is he all about?

Time for a massive clear out. Start with the Manager NOW and in the summer get rid of 6/7 shite players.

The board need to take responsibility for this as well. The signings for 2 years have been fucking woeful!

Time to ditch the dross and get world class players in mixed with youth and get a manager who knows what the fuck he's doing!!

by Moonchester Sat Mar 14, 2015 8:00 pm

the wife was bathing the kids, came down said Oh Dear... lol

I summed it up and said we was shiiite and Burnley scored a corker..
manager put Aguero into number 10 role after he took off Silva (2nd best number 10 in the world maybe)
finally took Toure off, so we stopped passing back 10 yards fromi every fecking pass to midfield.

When penalty was declined at the end (I think was a pen, tad soft, but a pen) I said we would have got a paint..

in fairness I think Burnley deserved the 3 points more than we deserved 1...

by TMG Sat Mar 14, 2015 8:41 pm

Although it's an absolute disgrace I'm actually quite happy now because that surely has to be the end of Pellegrini. Obviously we will have to suffer one more humiliation on Wednesday but then it should be the end. Things have not been right for many months now and we've gone from Champions to a joke team
The players just dont wanna play for him anymore

by Paulpowersleftfoot Sat Mar 14, 2015 9:09 pm

If he had any decency he wouldve resigned tonight
Don't know if you could see on the TV but he was sat motionless in the dugout while Dyche is on the touch line kicking every ball,fucking sickened me

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 9:33 pm

When will the fans voice their opinions at a home match?

It was difficult to justify paying for a seasoncard for my son and myself this year, knowing that I'd probably struggle to get to more than 5-6 games (not around at Xmas or Easter).

If this clueless fool is still around next year, there won't be any difficulty in declining the offer to renew.

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 10:12 pm

That's a good point Dawg.....we've never been a club to do that, but I think after we've all been saying that for the past 5 months....someone will surely do it?

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 10:33 pm

I would like MP and the guy that's buying the players gone. he might as well take his mate with him even though he's seemingly done a reasonable job on the income side of things.

by blueboy Sat Mar 14, 2015 10:42 pm

"So, if you can't beat Burnley, how do you beat Barcelona?"

Simple, we'll probably beat them 4-2, get to the QF and keep this complete COCK of a manager in place!!

The Manager and the Barca cock-twins can fuck right off. Nothing but a complete embarrassment!

by **Topdawg** Sat Mar 14, 2015 10:43 pm

No-one listens to the fans.

by **shakencity** Sun Mar 15, 2015 9:31 am

Disgraceful result this, one which our top brass need to seriously take note off. And there was me feeling pissed off last night having to troll round the Trafford Center shopping with the girls, inturn missing the game....seems like I made the right choice in the end.

by Paulpowersleftfoot Sun Mar 15, 2015 9:34 am

Think freezing my bollocks off at turf moor was still better than girly shopping at the trafford centre

by **leopold** Sun Mar 15, 2015 9:58 am

I was out catching up with some old work colleagues whilst the match was on, so I missed it completely. My lad went to the game, he said it was the worst performance he'd ever seen, and that included those before Frank Sinatra.

I'm now thinking this hideously expensive away trip to Barca is going to be an embarrassing thrashing. If I see a shocking display, I will not be happy.

by Guest Sun Mar 15, 2015 10:01 am

Trouble is watch us win on Wed, just to rub salt into the wound.

by **shakencity** Sun Mar 15, 2015 10:19 am

Got to admit, I kept upto date with the latest score as I trolled round shop after fucking shop......the result really did just about sum up the night. Although we did finish up with a meal at Pesto, so it all wasn't bad.

by skyblueoz Sun Mar 15, 2015 2:37 pm

iwas nodding off and was going to bed 01.30am here then I thought i'll watch first half then go to bed it was so bad i stayed up thinking they must get better 2nd half 04.00am went to bed well pissed off. Totally stuffed up my Sunday.

I do not for 1 minute think we will get anything from Barcelona, but a typical city result would be a 1-0 away win, going out on away goals.

by **leopold** Sun Mar 15, 2015 9:36 pm

by **leopold** Sun Mar 15, 2015 10:03 pm

Oh, and Chelsea only managed a draw. We could've gained two points there if we'd gone there and attacked them instead of playing like puddings.

MP is killing us with this current style of play.
