Tbf i think he's having a decent game, the movement is there

Marginally better but it looks like he's holding back a lot.

A decent half but disapointed with the defending for the goal we conceded.

Not sure what Courtois was thinking

 

To be fair their youth players are quite an impressive bunch. 

Pedro= Lightning Sick

Fabregas= Sick

Baba=Sick

Hazard= not sick enough

Ivan= not sick enough

Mikel= solid sick

Cahill= bleeding sick

Costa= sick

Azpi= solid sick

Willian= getting sicker

Courtois= not sick enough

I may be wrong, I thought I saw Ivan, Dave and Tibo let slip.

Weirdest game of football I have seen in a while ... City have done nothing, but got a bit lucky with the equaliser. We should be able to edge it, but the whole air of the situation with the "plucky young lads from City" just annoys me. But we have not capitalised on it! We need to. 

Our aim is to win this game so we need to be patient.

Trevor Sinclair described the first half as "pukka". Oh dear, anything goes with pundits these days.

Hazard grating on me. I don't know if he's being deliberately poor or not. His passing is lacklustre

He's got an assist

We're playing good football and have been unlucky with Pedro's chances. Pedro and Fabregas have been class. We should finish them off in the second half, although the ramshackle defence is a concern. I don't have much confidence in Ivan and Baba.

I think that could catch on BB.

Spuds on their way out, we need to win I feel the cup could be ours

They played? for like 10 min they played and somehow they scored.

Hazard is the classic example of a good player low on confidence ... not sure why. 100 people will give 100 reasons. Would be nice to see him let loose a bit ...

Yes you can see he is not giving 100%.Not acceptable on those wages is it.Looks as though he is bored but then again he usually does.

Would like to see Oscar come on for Willian.

Frizzy Willy just ain't quite with it today.

Poor display from some certain individuals, hazard was so average 1st half.. Only cesc and pedro that put up a decent performance.. flash point is that mikel pulled out a superb backheel past and am I the only 1 who think that some time willian bring the play back to square one with his 'defeat the purpose' pass?

 

cesc motm so far.. btw, I'm rather uncomfortable witnessing that city 2nd strings draw level with pretty much our 1st xi.. should we throw rlc, remy, miazga on the 2nd half?

Spurs lose so if we win this, then there's a great chance of winning the FA Cup. Just United, West Ham and Palace left from decent Prem teams.

Our youth players still wreck their Shi*. Hope we give them chances...

One pillock threw a coin on the pitch, but do we have to keep on about it ? It's not like it never happens, literally every game something is thrown on the pitch, yesterday they hit the target, and hopefully the WBA pillock will get some jail time when they find him.

Chelsea fans will still probably get more hate

Nice dig at Arsenal ;)

What's up with the coin throwing?

It's a good thing City are playing 442, the young players will get tired quickly. I would be worried if they switched to their familiar 433. 

Man City kids w**k fest half time on the BBC....as expected.

Fabregas has been masterful and Pedro has done well but both Willian and Hazard need to do a lot more otherwise get the subs on early second half.

 

This would be embarrassing if we don't beat this City reserve side. COME ON YOU BLUES!

Spuds dream of a double....shattered..

We need more urgency in our play they are getting back into position too easily
