After ballsing up a great opportunity in the last minute against Arsenal Ayews fluffed another one against City.

In games like this we have to take whatever chances we can get and he needs about 5 great ones to score. Did the same against Liverpool in the 1st half too.

lol sad but true. At least it's not 5-0 (yet)

That was an entertaining half of good football.

Red and Blue Army!

While it is very negative football we have limited them to very little. Remember when we played Liverpool and were a bit more open? Or against Villa? Let's face it, this is exactly how we played when we got results in the last two visits to the Etihad. We trail at half-time due to the genius of de Bruyne. Personally I'd bring Tekkers on as at least he wins the ball when we go long and carries an aerial threat. Maybe bring Andros off and put Ayew wide. If we can somehow hang in there we might get a lucky break like a penalty or a setpiece goal. If we open up at all they'll smash us though.

Roy is playing a 4 5 1 formation which means we are on a wing and a prayer against City Knowing our manager’s negative mind set he will be singing our praises if we come away with a 2- 0 Zaha has his detractors but we are clearly a bottom 6 side without him

Damage limitation, what with the thrashing by Liverpool fresh in the memory.
What a pity we don't have an Ambrose type player, someone who can have a crack from distance.
