mrbojangles Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Gonna be hard to come back from this. Deffo foul on Aguero, ref let it go and Everton score on the break. Useless defending though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacknDanny Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Another important decision which could have been cleared up in seconds, with video assistance!! As it was Sterling and he should have had a penalty in the first game, it leaves me with a clearer conscience I thought we played a lot better when Toure went off. More compact and seemed to create more. Just hope KDBs injury isnt as bad as it looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a picture I've seen on the Telegraph, the ball looked out before Sterling crossed it. Everton rightly feel a sense of injustice, as we did after the first leg (an offside call for their 1st goal and a penalty which should have been given for foul on Navas) and the recent 0v0 (Stones penalty not given for foul on Stirling). Pellegini's take on it: The City boss told a news conference after the match: "Maybe it was a mistake by the referee, but I think Everton cannot complain about the referee. We lost at Goodison Park with a clear offside for the first goal, a clear penalty for Jesus Navas. We drew here with a clear penalty on Aguero. One mistake against four or five mistakes. I think we had two shots on the post and were the better team." ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you not got decent internet BB? Even in the boonies I can now watch a match as the internet is much better. Fernandinho and Aguero where our best. Silva is improving and KdB made a huge impact when he came on, the lad is pure class hope he is ok. Zabba put in a decent shift and Navas also made a good impact when he came on but the rest were average to poor. Once again we were dodgy at the back and we really need a quality CB, we can't keep on relying on Otamendi and Demichellis as a pairing. If we don't win the prem this year it will be because of that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't win the prem this year it will be because of that position. Yep I would agree with that. The reason Navas had an impact is he actually CROSSED the ball a few times!! Something he normally steers clear of. 2nd game in a row where Kun has had a sublime effort hit the post!! I think Everton missed an opportunity by not using that Delafuene (?) more . He had Demichelis and Clichy chasing air in the first few minutes. That defence just cannot handle being run at with speed. Just read a report that KDB has suspected medial ligament damage . Bummer is that!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellydog Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Glad to see we made it through to Wembley. A pity about KDB though it sounds like it wasn't the dreaded ACL. Bad news even so. I had high hopes for Otamendi. He has had some stand out performances but others less than good. Consistency the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 ON THIS DAY IN 1961: DENIS LAW SCORES SIX GOALS FOR MAN CITY AND STILL ENDS UP ON THE LOSING SIDE! When Man City played Luton Town in the FA Cup fourth round on this day in 1961, they were 6-2 up after 69 minutes with Denis Law helping himself to all six of Citys goals.Sadly, it all went swiftly downhill from there for the young Scottish striker. The game was abandoned with 20 minutes left due to the water-logged pitch at Kenilworth Road resembling a beach with the tide out, with deep mud and a shallow lake according to a local news report.The game was rescheduled and played again on 1st February. As Sods Law would have it, Law scored again but City ended up losing 3-1.Just to add insult to injury, Laws original six goals were struck from the record which meant that he missed out on being the top FA Cup goalscorer of the 20th century.He eventually finished on 41 FA Cup goals, while Ian Rush topped the table with 44.Its not every day that you score six goals, Law later recalled to BBC Sport.I never did it again the most I managed in a game that counted was four, which I got a couple of times at Manchester United.Obviously it wasnt meant to be. The funny thing was when we went for the replay on the Wednesday the pitch was in a worse state than it ever was on Saturday.Bugger. Typical City!

mad mary Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Well if KdB didnt throw himself to the deck like Sgt.Elias when he was shot in the back in Platoon then it is unlikely he would have done any damage to his knee,after all Funes mori has minimal contact.

jellydog Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I look forward to him learning "the ol' onion bag". Had to look that one up. Seems Pellegrini is not so worried about the bulging onion bag, often to City's detriment. Before googling "onion bag" I had assumed it referred to the hanging brain.
