#204378 Barclays Premier League 2014/15

It's the turns that worry me.

Arsenal are the worst for it but all of the big teams in England seem to have a problem with it. United's fitness record has been poor for the last few years and City's has been dodgy since at least 2012 when Mancini (supposedly) had the team doctor sacked.

Unfortunately, you're opinion is wrong then. They're all roughly at the same level when they're at their best - Cesc possibly being the best of the three given his goal-scoring - but Silva is far and away the most consistent in his performances. He turns up in big games, he's good defensively (for a playmaker) and he rarely plays badly. On the other hand, we're all aware of the stick Ozil gets for his consistency and performances in big games and Fabregas isn't exactly renowned for his consistency.
Silva and Di María are the two best players in the league at the moment.
Think it's probably more to do with training methods tbh.
#204214 Barclays Premier League 2014/15

Not really, he's just a better player than Ozil.
#204110 Barclays Premier League 2014/15

Silva doesn't need pace around him.
#203289 Barclays Premier League 2014/15

#203187 Barclays Premier League 2014/15

He's the best player in the league.

Bang on the banana.

They're young, English and attacking midfielders. That's enough for vague comparisons (and bullshit opinion pieces in the tabloids).
#203128 This Is Anfield

Now now, Bobber. All real football fans know that if there's no quotes then it must be bullshit.
#203111 This Is Anfield

That's pretty much a guarantee that Perez will try and buy him.
#203078 This Is Anfield

All clubs do stuff like this, Liverpool just seem to do all of it worse than everybody else. Those pictures announcing their new signings are a great example.
Their PR people are just a bit shit.

I think he was going to say it whatever happened to be honest but it wasn't a big surprise.
The atmosphere's rarely great at the Etihad at the best of times, the loudest sections are split up by the away fans and the sound tends not to carry very well across the pitch to other sections. If you add that to a flat performance, ever-increasing prices and a relatively small/poor fan-base, unfortunately atmosphere and attendance is going to suffer.
Frankly the club don't help themselves in that regard, they've been steadily pricing people out for the last couple of years and it doesn't look like they're about to stop any time soon.

#202340 Champions League 2014/15

Yes, he should. Clear goal-scoring opportunity.
Not sure that was his fault but I agree generally.
#202332 Champions League 2014/15

The Maicon show.
#201651 Barclays Premier League 2014/15

I think it's the back swing/back lift that's making most people see it as as more than just cynical.
#201632 Barclays Premier League 2014/15
bluemoon.
He really is. Very likeable too.
#201624 Barclays Premier League 2014/15
bluemoon.
His passing and first touch are still incredibly hit and miss (his first touch was unbelievably shit against Wednesday) but, yeah, he keeps stepping up at important moments.
I'd never really noticed it before, but watching him in person it's uncanny just how often he ends up in the right place at the right time. He reads the game so well.
#201615 Barclays Premier League 2014/15
bluemoon.
He had a few bad moments, especially in the first half, but his first was a cracker and he stepped up when we needed it for the second. I can't really fault him.
His movement is just incredible.
#201586 Barclays Premier League 2014/15
bluemoon.
Not really. First was unlucky, second was genuinely bad but wouldn't have happened if Yaya or Clichy had done their jobs properly.
If we can regain our hold on midfield, we should get back on top. Either Navas or Lampard on for Dzeko for me, either way an extra body in midfield.
#201376 Capital One Cup 2014/15
bluemoon.
Yeah, I think it was just because Kolarov wasn't bothering to track back to be honest.

Mangala is so good that Boyata actually looked alright when he came on. He only almost gave away one penalty!
#201212 Capital One Cup 2014/15
bluemoon.
Given that he didn't play because he returned from international duty late I'm not sure if that quite counts as being rested.
#201060 Capital One Cup 2014/15
bluemoon.
No.
Don't know if you were there or not but the scoreline definitely flattered City. Wednesday were doing pretty well until the red - which looked very, very harsh - after that they kind of fell apart.

#200721 Transfer Rumours 2014/15

Almost certainly. They wouldn't be home-grown though, unfortunately that's important enough to play a part in transfer policy.
