I do know stats can be manipulated to prove or disprove anything....are you aware that over the 4 top leagues in Europe, Garcia has the 5th best passing accuracy of any player. Assists per mins on pitch....zaba is second behind kolorov and Alex has scored more goals. Zaba leads the club in bookings, and is second in most fouls conceded. Crispy...your reply wasn't offensive, I enjoyed your reasoned debate, I also know I am in the minority when it comes to zaba and was anticipating a lot of negative comments....I also agree completely with your assessment of dickov...I put zaba in the same category. Zaba player of the season was voted for by the fans I think ( I could be mistaken ) only confirming MY view that most football fans prefer someone who appears to work hard.... Sunderland fans love lee cattermole...he's a cart horse. My opinion is my opinion, just because the majority don't agree....most thought the world was flat, most didn't take to Goater at first. I also stand by my bad game theory....we've all witnessed his inability to man mark at set pieces 3 times against Cardiff, how many times did he get caught out of position against Chelsea.... I could go on but it's onwards and upwards....barca tonight....come on city! P.s...Glenn.....dont worry about your shirt, we all make mistakes...I own a fowler, weah and macken shirt so what do I know :-) Ok, here goes…..I haven’t had much free time to search the net for stats regarding zaba…my glue sniffing takes up a lot of my time.

We did have more shots, but they were mainly missing. It could have been so different - I didn't buy the Mourinio masterclass arguement. This time my summary was Men v Boys! Chelsea only had 3 shots all off target! They were never in it. Haven't heard many Pelligrini masterclass comments - but it was a masterclass. Weel done boys - keep it up.

Maybe Demichelis is more useful for the weaker clubs where we can dominate possession, and use Lescott against more dangerous attacking sides? Either way Nastasic is behind both for me ATM Yeah I think Lescott deserves to split time with Demichelis.
