Lescott too, stupid penalty to give away. The whole City team looked off the pace. they didn't look a real threat to score after the first 15 min.

The Invincibles thank you Clichy :biggrin:

Midfield still looked 50-50 when city were a man down. AVB might have some serious thinking to do.

Does aguero have problems with his fitness? He has been subbed him off in every gam he has started in the epl. Very happy to see city finally lose a game. Funny how city did the same thing to Chelsea last year.

I was talking more about the fact Chelsea was dominating last year and then City put an end to that. I did not know Chelsea only had 1 loss in one of those seasons. Thanks. I hope Man United can equal that one day.

Only great clubs have unbeaten seasons.

Taking Aguero off means he'll less likely be injured through the season, and keeps Dzeko fresh.

Nah not to talk aussie cricket specifically. The international cricket talk was good before we all moved away.

Fletcher is stepping away from soccer because of health problems.

We really can't catch a break this season and looks like we might even have to play Gibbo soon.

We're gonna be in tough for a lot of matches this season. Fletcher/Vidic presumably done for the season. Anderson out until February, Chicharito out until early January, Cleverley coming back soon but who knows how fast he'll get integrated into the team. This past summer should've been a time to bolster the central midfield IMO and we're still extremely mediocre in the middle. It's not even necessarily for a creative, offensive-minded midfielder, we need midfielders that provide adequate cover for the back 4. It'll be extremely difficult to buy in January so I just don't see it happening, but is Anderson/Cleverley supposed to be our future in the middle of the park? As well as they started the season, I've got major concerns there.

I reckon Gervinho-Walcott-Ox could do a job if RVP went down. Torres could still play FA cup.
