thats been a frustration at city for years, it looked to be solved earlier this season when we signed quinn and we battered millwall and bolton ..definitely been a frustration again last few games, didnt help yesterday with olifinjana in the middle, slows everything down, not sure why cairney didnt get a run out as usual in the cup..
Agreed. And to add to that, McShane is generally out of position and doesn't recover like Bruce does. I think Bruce is alright personally but Chester, Hobbs and Faye are three of the best defenders in the division and they should be three of the first names on the team sheet in this system.
I prefer Macca to Bruce, but would always pick the other 3 first. I wide if Alex wasn't the managers son would we have signed him? I'm sure not. I've only seen it once, but I'm pretty sure their goal yesterday comes from him charging out of position and the kid just passing around him before they score. No way would our other 3 have done that.
Disagree with you about Bruce he gets turned three times a half and his distribution is woeful. However Macca is worse, i don't think he even knows where he is meant to be at all. I just don't get why Faye and Hobbs got dropped they weren't great against Wednesday but still better than the other two.
How do you know that Hobbs isn't injured or being touted to another club? Your rubbishing of Alex Bruce is uncalled for and the lad hasn't put a foot wrong since he rightly won his place in the team. For the record I would give the captains armband to Meyer because he is the nearest thing we have to an Ian Ashbee.
Agreed for the most part. I can't see how anyone can belittle Alex Bruce in comparison to Paul McShane. I don't think Hobbs or Faye played because it was an FA cup game. They'll be playing on Saturday I imagine. Hobbs to keep the armband at all times for me.
if i was you, i'd retract that otherwise people will think you're being serious - how on earth can you compare Ash and Meyler - Meyler can't tackle, no presence and on his arse half the time - great laff but you really don't want people think you're serious - ps the bit about Alex Bruce - another one - hilarious - you should take it up professionally - you're very funny
