Hmm, don't agree with your judgement on ireland there;
Ireland hasn't played a game properly at city for months, city always kept him on the bench and he never could break in to the first team with mancini, he isnt like milner but once he's on the ball he does make things happen. I've only seen the first 20 minutes of the match but he had one shot (2 minutes) and he also setup a goal for petrov which went wide.. he doesn't have Milner's workrate to run up the pitch and down.. I understand that but to say he doesn't want to be here is a bit harsh imo. Oh and if you saw his face when he missed the target he was really gutted, tried to atleast get a corner from it but it never worked, he knows he messed up on that shot.
