:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: 2 points from 3 games, and only 1 goal scored, despite spending £30m+ on strikers !! Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: sonic youth on Sunday, August 19, 2007, 15:11:39 i was telling anyone who would listen yesterday that city would win.

Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, August 19, 2007, 16:10:08 City are flying. I reckon they'll finish 4th. Early days yet though but Sven's effort in trawling through videos to find his players seems to be paying off.

Early days yet though but Sven's effort in trawling through videos to find his players seems to be paying off. I agree but i think lets see how they stand after ten or so games. It's early days yet.Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: Lumps on Monday, August 20, 2007, 07:26:32 You've got to question Fergies recruitment strategy. He's spent about £50m on attacking players in the last couple of seasons and he's left with:
Rooney Solskaer Saha Tevez Ronaldo Nani Anderson And not a natural six yard box centre forward amongst them (with the possible exception of OGS who's an old crock). Why would you buy Tevez when you've got Rooney; Nani and Anderson when you've got Ronaldo; and at the same time let someone like Smith go on the cheap? Very odd. Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: dell boy on Monday, August 20, 2007, 07:49:05 United should have won 6-1 yesterday, it was just one of those days at the office they will still be there in the end, City certainly wont be.
Impressed with Liverpool, what about that penalty decision in favour for Chelsea, one thing for sure Mr. Singh wouldn't have given it.

I wouldn't be suprised to see them buy one before the window closes Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: janaage on Monday, August 20, 2007, 08:55:57 What the hell is this Man City love in that seems to have got the whole nation by the balls? The way SSN are going on about it you'd think that Man City have just beaten the European Champions 6-1 by playing some amazing dutch 1970's style footie.
How can anyone say City are flying. They beat a dreadful West Ham 2-0, an even worse Derby by a whopping 1 goal to nil, and survived a battering by Man Utd to win 1-0. They are playing dreadful football, relying heavily on the talented Richards. Sven's style of football is horrible to watch and yet people ignore this by talking about how well City are doing. We're three games into the season. City will struggle if they continue to play as they are. Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: lebowski on Monday, August 20, 2007, 08:59:49 and there i was thinking you couldn't really argue with 3 straight wins and no goals against...
Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: janaage on Monday, August 20, 2007, 09:49:18 That's the point I'm trying to make! Football nowadays seems to be 100% about scraping 3pts. And Sven has proven it, a lot of England fans were angry with Sven in the major championships because England played crap. When in truth in qualifying England looked crap but because you scraped through all was forgiven.
It's shortsightedness in the extreme. If you're happy to scrape the wins be prepared to take defeat on the chin and not blame the bloke when it doesn't work out. Like Dell Boy said it could have been 6-1 yesterday, if that scoreline is produced in the rematch I hope the City fans are prepared to accept the result without slagging off their manager's tactical style Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: Colin Todd on Monday, August 20, 2007, 09:56:39 The table is based upon points not artistic interpretation
Title: Man City 1 Man U 0 Post by: Bob's Orange on Monday, August 20, 2007, 16:11:07 I have Geovanni in some of my fantasy teams. 2 goals so far! :mrgreen:
