Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

that was a disgusting challenge

refereeing has been sterling today.

balotelli was lucky not to break song's leg with a horror challenge with his studs up and the ref didn't even see it to give a foul (shouldve been a straight red).

he'll be off at half-time again

If he doesn't get subbed he'll get sent off within 15 mins

He's such a liability. I think he's a good player, but his actual return after deduction of petulance, indiscipline and the head on is pretty poor. This nonsense about him being young as well.

Should've volleyed it

This goal couldn't be more coming

Hardly an original thought this, I know, but God Arsenal can be frustrating. They look great but do everything apart from scoring.

there it is

Fuck's sake! For the record, that post was before THAT

lol how did that fail to go in.

The fact that it's Arsenal is City's best hope really

How are Arsenal not winning this?

That's it

Boom!

Poznan!

Still take a point from this.

Off

A bit harsh, finally

Cheerio Mario

GIRFUY

Why always him?

Considering he's been on about 60 minutes he shouldn't have it's late justice.

a bit late but at least he's off now. still hope he gets an extra punishment for that savage foul.

would be really shitty if he only gets a 1 match ban

lol that was crap

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is that :-)

Yes. Yes it is. Still reckon Spurs'll finish 3rd.

Yup. It's enormously depressing that from about about a month ago there's not been the slightest doubt that Utd will win all their remaining games bar the City one

DIOUFY's little brother?

Arteta reminds me of one of the Kraftwerk robots

Xpost
It is but it's also the only reason I have any respect whatsoever for United.

The narrative that this is all because of Balotelli is taking over.

when will this sick thug be deported?

yeah, that's the least of it really

balotelli isn't a net positive to city tbh, not 'all because of' but imo he stinks, he should count himself lucky tevez exists and both should b fucked out

They will be, I presume; Mancini's interview afterwards was kind of strange, he was all resigned good wishes that Mario can make something of himself in the future.

Dzeko needs to go too, or to be at most the flat-track bully fourth option. The breadth of City's weakness is quite damning; not that anyone else is weaker man-for-man, but they're not showing it like this.

lol i will bet money that balotelli is at city and mancini isn't next season

what's the upside to keeping him though?

super troll

also when he wants to be, he is the best striker they have

was gonna say in the league and if rvi keeps not scoring, that might be troo by the end of the season

he's not even close to Aguero's class

or Rooney's

and weren't you saying we should consider Demba Ba one of the best strikers in the world earlier in the season? Your judgement of forwards seems a little off

Let's be honest, he's like Peter Crouch with a better haircut and a personality.

I still think Ba should be considered, after the season he has had. I'd take both him and Mario over Rooney in a heartbeat.

He's not exactly the first player to come back from the ANC looking knackered, it has happened to Drogba and Eto'o and Adebayor etc. too.

Balotelli's probably been a net positive to City over the season and Tevez/Dzeko don't look like doing much so dropping him now is tantamount to conceding the title and kinda dumb. Fine him, sell him in the Summer, whatever.

It's all Mancini's fault really. Shouldnt have fumbled the Tevez situation and become reliant on Balotelli in the first place.

Aguero still amazing obv.

mario balotelli has the potential to be one of the greatest strikers in the world, no question. he'll never fulfil that potential obv, but whatever.

ba has had an amazing season. gone off the boil a bit of late, but then again so has david silva, player of the year for my money (maybe rvp should be considered as well tho).

kinda feel like dzeko's been heavily undersold considering he's performed in probably as many games as either the silky and admirable aguero and the cult panto villain never-really-bothered balotelli this season. Were citeh to have tried to accommodate the former pairing earlier in the season at the expense of the latter clown they'd be in better shape imo
