That quadruple bid is looking really good now isn't it !

Wonder how bad Aguero's hamstring is, could have a big effect on the title race if he is out for several weeks.

 

[Librarian]

Lescott's not good enough at that level.

he looks like Baresi when compared to Dimichelis though

Great player when fit, up there with the best, but is struggling badly with injuries now.

Yes, he was rivalling Suarez before the injury spell. Think he will ne a big miss for them, they have a bit of a match glut coming up and unless its a tweak he will not be available

A billion pounds spent on that side and Carragher pointing out that they lack big-game players.

The problem for the PL sides this season is the inferior ball control, passing and mobility of their centre backs when compared to the other top sides.

I'm not watching but blimey!

Shocking player. They are down to the bare bones playing him. Best thing he's done so far at City is making the title winning game against QPR exciting with his defensive gaffes to set the game up for the late comeback.

Kompany aside, there's no other centre backs in the prem who are great with the ball at their feet. David Luiz doesn't count cos he's Brazilian and they all think they're attacking mids anyway.

He's not that bad, but he's out of his depth in games at the Nou Camp against the likes of Messi. There's not many around who can hold their own at that level.

He has the control of a pensioners bladder, he turns like Neil Armstrong heading back to his shuttle and I've seen people pass gallstones more comfortably than he does the ball.

Not confirmed on Aguerro. It could have been a tactical change.

EDIT: confirmed on the City OS.

The PL sides haven't been too far off in general play, that's the area where they are visibly inferior.
