*** MAN CITY v SPURS *** Official Match Thread

On the plus side, Chimbonda played really well after missing the penalty on Wednesday... :clap:

At times he did, other times he was beaten very easily, at fault for the second goal too.

Yes. It was a curious tactic to think he could outjump Onouha by kneeling. It didn't work. I think the zonal marking only works if players try and head the ball away.

This was entirely down to poor decisions from the Linesmen and referee. Their first goal shouldn't have been given and lets face it there was no way they were going to score otherwise. When Ramos bought on Bent for Keano I figured he expected that City were eventually honour bound to mount a sustained attack at some stage and so we could exploit the space behind, the offside goal decision meant that they didn't need to and kept defensive.
We weren't great but we were good enough to win and it wasn't because of City that we didn't.
Can't see the point of sustained attacks on every other Spurs player when we did enough to beat Manchester City on their own ground not allowing for incompetant officials.
You can't argue with that othewrwise we'd have to win every game by two or three clear goals.

Please can anyone list two Man City players from yesterday's game that we would want? On second thoughts can anyone name one.
