Imagine how good city would be if they actually had a great right winger. Milner is utter ****

City really don't play with wingers.
That's one of those things you can just never know.

His final ball is atrocious compared to the rest of the team. Rather try Silva on the right side of the three and Nasri on the left.
You want to play Silva and Nasri as wing backs...?

Milner is a CDM. Look at the size of him, he is a tank. He isn't built to run up and down the wings. He is just being fitted in there because theres no one else.
He was bought when he was playing really well in the middle but with having people like De Jong and Toure already occupying those positions he doesn't have much of a chance it that role.

Hart, lescott aggar kompany, clichy, Richards, yaya, nasri, silva, Aguero, Tevez.
Judging by today's game Chelsea have got a lot of work to do before they're up there with the two Manchester clubs, City were fully deserving of the win regardless of playing against 10 men.
Hazard was decidedly disappointing and looks to still have a lot of developing to do before he's worthy of his price tag, can't see Torres scoring nearly enough goals either, all in all Chelsea still need a lot of work.....

I think you've got a bit confused there as it was only the greater of the 2 Manchester clubs playing today and Chelsea were definitely not as good as them.
Man. U. haven't actually played this season if you're not aware so you can't make any comparisons with them to anyone unless you're just expecting them to be the same as last season, which will delight most if they are I'm sure.
Or you could be basing your point on pre-season I guess, in which case Brighton & Oldham are better than both teams today.
I thought Chelsea did well, any team would struggle to defend for 45mins with 10 men against City especially at this early stage of the season.
I think Ivanovic is one of their best defenders so losing him was a big loss, the game might have finished 1-0 if it was Terry who had got sent off.

I think you're a little knarky that your team lost (hence the rant)
