I thought today's game was very enjoyable after the dirge that was dished up on Thursday night.
OK, it was top 4 v bottom 4 and we were expected to win but at least it was entertaining and we showed the character to come back twice against a team fighting for their lives.
It also showed us once again how reliant we are on Silva and to a lesser extent, Yaya which is worrying as there doesn't seem to be anybody in the pipeline to replace them. KdB seems to have lost his creativity.
Sane bought a penalty - Good on him. We can't get one legitimately these days so we may as well jump on the bandwagon until the officials are brought up to the standard we need in this league.
Flukey goal from Negredo but it looked like he was playing to prove a point which is odd. He asked to leave the City.
Callum Chambers looks exactly like the sort of player we should be going after rather than ageing Italians while Adam Clayton, along with Kieran Tripper at Spurs are forming a group of acadamy players we've just given away without letting them try to prove themselves in the First Team.

We played the correct formation, just with the wrong players

) agree Silva is going to be very hard to replace.As for KdB I think that he has been quite poor for the last 6 months. he is better playing in a wide position, he is not a Silva or You're type of player

According to the Boro website they played their best game of the season by far
Good finish by City lot of corners but there was space for someone decent to try a pot shot from 20 yards
Kompany had a dig but it was ,well,...wide

Who's manager has enemies again?
If fernandinyho gets a ban then there can be no complaints.
If that was fellani you mugs would accuse the player of head butting his elbow.

Media aren't making a big deal about it so he won't get a ban.

It was seen and deemed unintentional wasn't it?

I was surprised that more didn't come of that to be honest. It was naughty for me.
