Bredbury Blue Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Man City starting XI: Caballero, Sagna, Kompany, Kolarov, Clichy, Toure, Delph, Silva, Sterling, Sane, Jesus Substitutes: Bravo, Zabaleta, Fernando, Nolito, De Bruyne, Stones, Navas Let's hope Kompany's jinx for driving over a black cat is over. Now that's a young front 3...our future. Jesus through the middle to get on the cross (sorry, I'll let myself out). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my Leicester point has been taken a bit litrually. I was referring to back 2 back European triumphs in Uefa and CL by JM that was a feat and a half. Agree Pearson laced that track. JM is a great manager IMO he may get itchy feet he may go wayward but most do. He gets teams in a winning shape and I'd settle for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree that if you think Ranieri has flopped. He has one eye on the unthinkable as do his team and the one player who made a big difference (Kante) has gone. He was smart enough not to stir the pot on his arrival and it paid dividends. It's a hangover season in some ways and what they did is pretty much out there on its own so I think providing Ranieri keeps Leicester up he will have a clean slate to work with whatever happens and then it will be his head on the block.

mrbojangles Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 Couldn't get a single stream anywhere for today's game, so had to listen on the radio. Sounded like a routine day at the office, professional display and some good performances from the young ones. Nice to see Kompany getting 90 minutes in. Will have to try and get some replay somehow but it isn't looking hopeful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbojangles Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 Thanks to a member on here, just got to watch some brief highlights. First goal was a sublime pass by Jesus and Sterling took it really well. Shame he couldn't do that last week!! Second goal was set up beautifully by Silva and Sane finished it off with ease and confidence. I like this lad Third goal was a typical Yaya free kick. There was no stopping that beauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 https://youtu.be/BnMFq-MJEoE BBC highlights Three cracking goals. Jesus defence-splitting pass, Silva carrying the ball 60-70m and putting the ball on a plate, and yaya freekick. Good to blood Sane and Jesus, Delph and Kompany back, and the novelty of a City goalkeeper making a save. Main men from the reports I've read were Silva, Yaya and Kompany. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 MrBj I share your frustration. I couldn't get Radio Manc to fire up for me so had to resort to following the BBC and Telegraph updates while watching BT Sport chat show on a very poor ilikehd reception - it was worth it to see if Chris Sutton would snap and take out the most biased wobbie Savage (<deleted>)...sadly he didn't as Sutton was radiating in non-league Lincoln's wonderful victory over Championship leaders Brighton (result of the day wobbie). There was a controversial moment around the yaya foul you can see in the highlights clip I posted. Yaya had just been booked and wobbie, Hartson and others thought it was a red. Howard Webb disagreed. Webb controversially stated that not all yellow card moments are equal. When pressed on it he said if a team had had 4 yellows and there was a sense of injustice from the booked team and their fans which might get out of hand and consequently the ref might lose control, the ref might try to regain greater control by taking the opportunity to book one of the opposing team once a bookable offence rose so that he regained total control.
