    Walker's probably been City's worst player this season.

    And I ****ing love it.

    He always struggled without a Lennon or a Lamela type in front of him tracking back to help out. His best periods at Spurs were when one of those two was in front of him, or where we had 3 at the back with a right sided CB giving him additional cover.

    At City, he has ageing and inexperienced CB's next to him and a small, overrated donkey in front of him. His shortcomings have been exposed when City aren't on the front foot.

    Apparently, Aguero's not fit for tomorrow as a result problems arising from the injury from Ashley Young's 'tackle'.

    I'm being brought pleasure by Ashley Young's 'tackle'?

    :oops: I'm sullied.

    I'd sooner not think about Ashley Young's tackle (or any other player's tackle) :eek:

    Walker has had a great season btw

    Your defence is rarely troubled because your midfield are so dominant with the ball. Pool and Utd have shown in recent games that with the right gameplans, it opens up your defence like a knife through butter when soaking up pressure and countering.

    No team can go toe-to-toe with you but as those sides have proven, if you pick the opportune moments on a counter, your defence are too **** to deal with it. Easier said that done but it’s been clear for neutrals to see. You’re an excellent side but the defensive stats are fabricated due to the amazing midfield you have.

    No, he sort of stands around them hoping to look better than he is by association.

    Keep up!
