Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [13th - 15th August 2011]

[Somnambulist]

G'wan Swansea... though if their defence is anything like their woman they're going to penetrated easily.

 

[explicit4u]

They look like another Blackpool! Hope they stay up, they play some decent football.

 

[Nate75]

Good turn out for a Monday night game

 

[mmj_uk]

Swansea teaching Man City how to play exciting football.

I really don't like watching City play it wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so solid at the back, they just neutralize teams and show very little going forward.

 

[Somnambulist]

Clichy showing why we were probably right to sell him.

 

[_Gizka_]

Silva is looking simply fantastic this evening, such a joy to watch, involved with everything City are doing.

Impressed with the start Swansea made, although starting to come under more pressure now.

 

[Somnambulist]

Swansea very Arsenal-esque so far, comfortable in possession, some good passing... but no real attacking threat yet and the other team looks more likely to score.

 

[Purdy]

Hate most of the city team, but can't help but like the way Toure has turned into an absolute monster on the ball.

 

[AGD]

City have really upped the pressure in the last 10mins - swansea will be happy to see HT.

+ no Fabregas.

 

[Purdy]

Enjoyable first half.
Lazy strike by Dzeko there, keeper had already gone to ground.

 

[Somnambulist]

+ no Fabregas.

Arsenal-esque without Fabregas yes (e.g. last weekend). When you rely on a single player to create the vast majority of your goal-scoring chances (and one who had the highest rate of chance-creation in Europe) then obviously you're going to struggle without him. We still have Wilshere who has 'the eye' but he's injured for the next couple of games at least. Team has to adapt to create without him.

Anyway, enjoyable half. Seems like just a matter of time till City score.

 

[One More Solo]

Silva is looking simply fantastic this evening, such a joy to watch, involved with everything City are doing.

Their best player by some distance.

 

[K1LLSW1TCH]

Swaaaanseeeeea City FC!

What the hell is up with the commentary?! So far we've had Rangel, Anjell, Anhell Ranhell. Oh and "Carlo" Tevez.

 

[utajoker]

lucky goal :/

 

[Somnambulist]

Bit lucky but it was only a matter of time. Aguero coming on, cool.

 

[explicit4u]

Here comes Aguero!

 

[utajoker]

swansea keeper has been impressive.

 

[_Gizka_]

Instant impact from Sergio.

Fabulous double save from Vorm though!

 

[Somnambulist]

Ha, sickhead, nearly scored twice already.

 

[nemtizz]

Decent keeper.
