Arsenal game was a solid cup tie, intriguing but not exciting. Leeds tried to be overly physical in their challenges, Arsenal tried to be overly clever in their passing, neither managed it. We are horribly short of goal scorers outside RVP, perhaps Henry can teach them a few things about composure while he's here. BBC reckons we had 8 shots on target, I'd say only 3 of them really qualified as shots.

I know this might seem an anathema to you plastics but I'm going to have a go at our own crowd, they fucking irritated me last night, lots of part timers in. They failed to get behind the team for 60 minutes then gave Henry a standing ovation for warming up on the touchline, I'm as please as anyone to see the second coming but fucking support the team that's on the pitch first. The reception when he came on was superb but so many little lights round the ground. Put your fucking phone cameras away you tits, the photo will be crap and your grandchildren aren't going to be interested to see the blury blob you claim to be a picture of the return of the king.

I might be a part-timer, but I totally agree with this.

So it was. I'd forgotten that.

Selective memory. You're not a Kopite are you?

you should have zidaned him

Yes. Because everyone knows we are the greatest club in British football history and they are all bitter.

You being from Yorkshire I assume you're talking about Leeds?

Suarez, Terry kick racism to top of Premier League agenda - YouTube

"***Kompany *will serve a four-match ban, starting with Wednesday's Carling Cup semi-final first leg against Liverpool. The midfielder will also miss next Monday's Premier League game at Wigan, the home game against Tottenham on Sunday, 22 January and the second leg of the Carling Cup at Anfield on Wednesday, 25 January. "

Sweet!

exactly my thoughts..yes

see i told you all it was a red card

leaky sieve springs to mind for the city defence without kompany
our chance of silver ware just got boosted hopefully we'll be able to bang on about the future rather than our history over the next few months now !

eh eh eh calm down, calm down. It's only the fucking Carling Cup man!

tell that to arsenal fans

Anyway all it does is ensure man city field a weakened side, which is still a very good side

Also without Toure which is gonna make some difference. He has been great for them this season

City should play an all white side, and get the home fans on their side.

Can Adebayor play in the spurs game? If I were Man City I'd terminate that loan.

I doubt he will be allowed to play.

just had a google and there were no conclusive answers

But they are playing at home for the first leg :$

it's silverware
man city waited for approx. 40 years for their most recent and they seemed quite please last season
admittedly we have won the carling cup more than anyone else so it's probably won't be such a big thing but hey it'll look good along side our 5 european cups 18 league titles and numerous FA Cups

Can Adebayor play in the spurs game? If I were Man City I'd terminate that loan.

conflict of interests. I've never seen a loan player play against his proper employers. I'm 99% sure it's not allowed at all
