“Hart – Certainly had every right to be livid with his defence for the first goal as Cahill was left unmarked two yards out”

Had it not been for Harts rediculously optimistic throw out to Tevez there would have been no need to worry about marking Cahill.

City should have slaughtered Everton last night. we clearly need someone to lead the attack balotelli doesn’t seem to be the answer.

I really think you and ‘Colin Bell is my Hero’ are being a little harsh of the newby’s. He was by no means outstanding but I think Yaya really gave it a go last night but not much went his way, he was the reason for our goal also. Silva will learn from this, he just got off to a bad start and did not then rise to the occassion. His head never went down though and kept on trying to find an opening, some of his passing was not of the same quality of he has shown recently I agree. Balotelli will come good to a really big degree at some point in the season but last night just was too soon for him and an understanding with Tevez just isn’t there at the moment. What I am trying to say is I feel as though this was the type of game that Gareth Barry would have gone awol in last season, but last night he was easily our best player. So it has taken an experienced Premiership player time to settle down at a new club and show his best form, give the likes of Yaya, Silva and Balotelli a chance will you? Also, I thought we missed the bite of De Jong in midfield and we would have won the game had he been in there instead of Milner, who is also still finding his feet and seemed to be playing out of position for him. I still feel we are in a good position to achieve our real goals, (Champions League, Trophy) and if we continue to support the team like the fans did last night and good things await us at the end of the season.

p.s AJ was no better either, and with Jo, he stops us scoring rather than helps us

Hart – Didnt do well enough – no communication at all and throwing and kicking as dire

Zaba – True hero! When he replaced his shirt he wore the number 60 which my hero John Guidette wears! Trooper and did his part, cannot complain with his performance

Kolo – Rubbish and needless challenges

Kompany – All over the place

Kolarov – I like him, thought he did well

Yaya – So poor

Barry – Absolutely OUTSTANDING

Milner – Very harsh to be subbed at half time especially when Silva was giving the ball away as much as he was

Silva – Dreadful passing, never got his head up and no running off the ball – such a let down after recent performances

Balotelli – Made one attempt out of nothing from the corner and what a great effort it was. Did everything right with his chance late on, but needs to up the tempo

Tevez – Get rid of him
