Fox sports was showing highlights at halftime from our brilliant win at the etihad last season,and i can't help but be amazed by the amount of chances we created and how dangerous we looked on the break against them,even hitting the post twice,etc.

Fast-forward to today,and we just paled in comparison. The difference was practically night and day. The post match stats showed we only had 4 shots and that's not good enough no matter who we're up against.

This seems a bit like a case of showing them too much respect,which is strange given how they're not exactly on top form atm. What a missed opportunity to open up a real gap between us and them and I can't understand why remy wasn't given a chance to trouble city's backline with his pace.Costa was struggling against mangala and kompany's strength,so what chance did drogba have?

Jose needs to set aside sentiment sometimes. Hope we don't have a hangover after this in the league.

Costa already with 3 yellow cards now. 2 more before 1 match suspension. haha.

actually where was iva when milner come in from right side. iva macam off a bit yesterday.

since when? FA website doesnt say so.
its accumulated based on 5, 10, 15 cards. the rule still applicable.

FA

last season? where got.
10 yellow, yes 2 matches ban. 5 yellow still 1 match suspension.

maybe subbing ramires out gave milner space to run,  JM put him on the right to cover iva, and milner start from left and couldnt get anythings out from dave, then he switch to right.

but 1 good things is our second match again MC is at January.  "africa cup of nations"
