Zatman Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 they are too unbalanced even in Premier League. They cant fit Navas, Aguero and Silva in the same team. Hasnt helped that SIlva has gone off the boil since winning league and players like Kompany, Yaya Toure, Nasri, Hart and Dzeko have been found out against the decent teams in europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Citeh need a new goalie, given those circumstances they can have an international goalie in January for 3 million if they want. That would be almost given him away. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SikhInTrinity Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 For the millions they've spent they should really be walking the league and being the best bet in Europe, but they are far from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I think it shows that it takes that kind of money just to be competitive in the title race. You can't walk this league for any amount of money.

Guest av1 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Do I remember reading at the end of last season, someome connected to city (maybe David Platt) saying Mancini planned to replace Hart this summer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandaq Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Which is a good sign but that wallet is pretty deep as well. They could do this kinda stuff for several years,even decades. I do wonder how football is gonna progress, how will it look in 10 years? 20? The money is growing rapidly, something has to happen..... Do I remember reading at the end of last season, someome connected to city (maybe David Platt) saying Mancini planned to replace Hart this summer? yes they were talking about Begovic I believe?

When they won the title they didnt build on it, If Mancini had of signed 2 or 3 quality players instead of signing crap like Maicon, Rodwell, Garcia and Sinclair City would be in stronger position. Chelsea walked it when took advantage of their first title win, think Mancini made a mess that will take a while to clean up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Went last night, Bayern are immense and have copied Pep's Barca formation exactly. In possession it's like a 3-3-4 fluid swamp mix. Lahm dropping back from holding mid to the middle of defence. Navas looked the worse Spanish player I've ever seen. Walcottish technique, ugly. Milner was their best player and he was only on pitch for around 7 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should really be walking it against sides like us, and not complaining that they dominated posession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted October 3, 2013 Moderator Share Posted October 3, 2013 A mate of mine described Navas as "a stupid greyhound" based on what he's seen so far of him. Hard to disagree but I'm sure there's much more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Navas is a strange player, His psychological issues could be bak and affecting his form but I think his performance vs Newcastle probably alerted other teams quicker than expected that if giving him space he will tear you apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Do I remember reading at the end of last season, someome connected to city (maybe David Platt) saying Mancini planned to replace Hart this summer? What has happened to Hart? He was really good. Maybe the pressure has got to him. I'm quite happy that he keeps making mistakes for city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe all the talk of being England's number 1 for the next decade, and winning the league with city has simply gone to his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 or maybe he was never that good as some people in media made out, his best season was at birmingham under the uber defensive coach that is Eck. Think Hodgson in tough situation now does he stick with Hart with no confidence or throw in Forster and risk another Carson happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted October 3, 2013 Moderator Share Posted October 3, 2013 Throw in Forster. If the precedent of Carson was the only reason Woy would be keeping him out of the side then that'd be moronic because you can't assume their mental make-up is the same or that he's one calamity away from crumbling - or that he'll even make a calamity. Carson was Carson and that's that. Forster looks the business so throw him in. That's how it works. The lad handled Barcelona in the CL fairly well on more than one occasion.

coda Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Woy will stick with Hart. I doubt he's even considered changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
