1 player who started at about the same pace as Kolarov and is now the best Left back in the world… Patrice Evra only Evra aint got a left foot like Kolarovs

Too harsh on Kolarov and do not give him enough credit for his hard work and 2 assists during the game. You say he got beaten but he only got ‘skinned once’, the rest of the times he managed to get back and get in a good position and block the inbound cross. Lay off him, he’s going to be a star and we can see why already. Yaya took his goal well today, but still want more from him. Notably when he ran and then had his shot blocked and he just lay down behind their goal for a few minutes because he was tired….condone that do you?

I am as delighted as anyone else to see City win so emphatically and with so many good individual performances. But i still believe that this display flattered us to the the extent were we could be lulled into thinking are more capable than we actually are.
The main reason for this is our tempo. We dont have any. We certainly have the players to play an attacking gane but we are set up so as to soak up the play. This can be useful to distill games at certain points but Mancini coming from the talian league does not seet it like this.
This is not meant as criticism as such but i am in the firm belief that we had the best attacking lineup at the end of last season, with the aggresive pace of Bellamy and Tevez as well as the trickery of Johnson. Obviously this has now changed and the conservative nature of our play could hamper us against the likes of United and Spurs in the coming games.

I do not think anyone can dispute his killer left kicks and his attacking abilities. Unfortunately, it is not case that City play teams that are sitting ducks on weekly basis and bash them with 5 goals. More often than not, Other teams put a much stronger fight than Sunday’s game when Kolarov’s defensive weakness is manifested most.

His being slow esp against pacy wingers has been most obvious in previous games ,against Blackpool one for example.

This not to belittle his contributions in Sunday’s game but a heads-up against challenges he may face against pacy players. Nothing makes me happier if he provides the winner in FA cup.

My hero is Manchester city club and and all individuals’ worth are in the context of club with no personal vendetta toward any player. The performance of any player should be at least in par with the price that was paid for him and money he is being paid to.

Yet, I bet that if he produces the cross for the match-winning goal in the Semi-Final, all of his “lackluster” performances will be forgotten and his attacking abilities will be lauded by all of you.

Did nothing wrong that I could go into great depths about – got skinned a few times. All but one of these, he got back and did his job – DEFENDING.

As Dan has said, A shot-come-cross lead to one goal (even though Vieira did his best not to – twice!), challenging Cattermole, on the opposite wing, lead to another.
