Disappointing performances by all top 4 English teams this UCL week.

I was at the game, Schalke very deservered winners, but Arsenal had no width to get in behind them, everything went through the middle and Gervinho, well was a shower of sh*t, and Ramsey is no right winger. Missed Oxlade-Chamberlain and Walcott massively.

If it wasn't for Zenit and Anderlecht being so poor, Milan would be doing as well as Man City this season. Malaga looked decent though.

Bundesliga certainly catching up on the Premier League for being the second best league behind La Liga.

Mancini seems to have been replaced by an imposter during the summer.


I think he's doing much the same as last year, not really getting a really strong squad to play to their maximum.

Didn't he just get a bit lucky last year when United chucked the league away after City tried to do the same?

Whilst he continues to play Gareth Barry, they will never win the CL

and Milner and Lescott and Dzeko. All seriously terrible players. When Aguero or Silva get it they must look around and think 'wasted ball, wasted ball, wasted ball' before passing it between each other.

I doubt they'll have the luxury of the opposition's centre half passing them the ball every time he has it like Pepe did last night.

Dzeko's a bad player!? He's got the best goal-minute ratio of all the City strikers.

Watched on TV. Schalke's counter attacking in second half was a pleasure to watch. Great team, and judging by the noise they made in my 'hood, great fans.

Terrible footballer. He'd fit in at Stoke.

All credit to the Schalke supporters they didnt stop singing all game, and i'm sure one of them had a megaphone to start the chants! The Arsenal fans though were really quiet, and only one song - Arrrsenal, Arrrsenal :|

True but I was taking in the City game as well. Which was the most one sided game I have seen at that level despite the score.

Get what you're saying but his current persistence with changing to 3 at the back after 60 mins is pretty comical tbh.

Never rated him, and think City would be much better off changing him for De Boer or the Dortmund boss who's name has escaped me.
