The board need to look at Liverpool who soon relized Hodgson was the wrong man and act.The team were a shambles and his sub's only made things worse.

Gutted Good all round undone by poor finishing and a complete lack of ability to defend corners.I would cut the newly put together defence some slack but it's been like this all season.

Sorry Ged you have to go mate

I agree it looks very nice

Just some observations - Our ball retention is abysmal and has been for years now we simply continue to invite pressure on ourselves and rely on defenders chucking themselves in the way of the ball it's not good enough - The switch of wings of Albrighton and Downing was a major error ,Albrighton's crossing is much better on the right and Huth just out muscled him everytime he tried to drobble past him -We should have brought Ireland on and packed the midfield just to try and hold on to the ball ,Heskey coming on might have helped hold the ball up but he was brought on too late - Our bench is woefully short at the moment

Team Friedel ,Young ,Collins ,Dunne,Warnock,Albrighton,NRC,Petrov,Downing,Young ,Gabby Subs : Guzan - Ireland - Heskey - Beye - Cuellar - Clark - Hogg

I bet the scouts are happy ..finally the chance to go abroad to look for players !

Heskey !!!!

Glaston ..what's Jol's strong points and weak points ? We might splash the cash for him if we are looking long term IMO.

Perhaps homesick meant MONsick ?

Thank's again General it's a tough time but I for one appriciate you taking the time to keep us informed. Based on the assumption that Beye and Young are on around 40k a week thats just over £4mil in wages a year.Our match day income was round £22mil so we were paying nearly a 5th of our matchday income on 2 rbs who don't play as MON was playing a CB there.I can understand why this is a problem. One question General what is Randy's feeling on our income situation ,looking at Arsenal for instance their matchday income is £80mil more than us.Can we address this or do we have to concede that the clubs who have been successful for a long period of times have gained alot of new fans (glory hunters )

Fat Sam says he isnt interested in Reo-Coker

If Plop get brought out then we really should worry about Young's future.

Missed this bit ,are you suggesting you know who want as a replacement?

So it's MON who let loose on him then ?

Collins off injured Cuellar on ...unlucky SGC !!

Seems a bit of a shopping window selection of team that, with most of those looking on their way out of the club in the near future.

I think Mancini coming out and saying he was still interested in Milner was an indication to MON that Milner's agent had let City know he was up for the move so we have acted accordingly. Also given that MON has in the past sued for being mis represented in the media I highly doubt he would make a comment with out something to back it up. Just my 2 cents

Well to me it seems that after Mancini's comment in the morning that they still wanted Milner MON has throught ball's to it he can go ,very similar to with Barry when he came out and said ok Liverpool he can go where's the cash.

Another reason to look abroad for player's ..any time a player of our's get England recognition he want's to **** off at the first oppotunity.

As far as I am concerned Lescott is the bench mark we shouldn't take anything less than they paid for him. As for James himself I think he is a fool !..all be it soon to be a very rich one

Looks like I will just have to order online ,it's just with clothes I like to see it in the flesh first and try it on.

Anyone know if the Nike shop in London has the training gear ?

Man City only have them selves to blame for being quoted huge prices.When the Abu Dubi guys came in the first thing they did was steal Robinho away from going to Chelsea ,they tried to outbid United for Berbatov then there was the attempt to sign Kaka.Since then they have continued not only spending big on transfers fee's but also on wages so bit late to start winging that clubs are trying to rip them off.

I wouldn't be suprised if this time next year we are in the same position with him as with Milner now.
