It’s nearly impossible to pick a side here–on the one hand, you don’t need to watch the entire 90 minutes to realize that Wayne Bridge’s crap defense led to conceding two goals; on the other hand, pundits like Alan Hansen are, generally, pompous idiot windbags. Can we call it a draw?

Clearly city were rubbish until the end. I watched the game and I could have gotten all i needed from the scoring summary.

I think Hughes has a point, in that what we see on MotD isn’t always a realistic depiction of what actually happened in the game.
The thing is (and I’m not sure everyone in the UK fully appreciates this) it’s edited together so much better than other highlight shows. Have you ever seen the Premier League Review show for comparison? Or Fox Soccer Sunday+? It’s just all the shots slapped together.
MotD gives you a feel of the flow of the match, which is much more enjoyable to watch (because you don’t notice the jumps) but also a lot more deceptive because you feel like you’ve watched 90 minutes, when in fact you’ve only watched ten or so.
Or maybe I just need a new watch.

On Motd Gordon Strachan did a tactical overview on Ashley Cole while he was exceeding as an Arsenal attacking left back. He showed how someone from the midfield would slot in defense to allow him to do it without leaving a huge hole. It also had a lot to do with the pace of their centre back at the time.
Hansen was highlighting how Bridge is trying to play like Cole (surely an influence at the other Bridge) but tactically the team weren’t slotting in.
You expect this sort of stuff when a lot of new players join a club and you can bet that Hughes is in training this week concentrating on improving that positional sense.
Bridge’s performance against Croatia was the worst I’ve ever seen in an England shirt. Though the Man City team need to take collective responsibility for his rush of blood to the head runs.

“Yes the CB’s have scored some goals but many of those goals came from set pieces and the few that didnt were just very good strikes from vermaelen(from a distance).”
how exactly did you want them to score? these are the CBs we’re talking about remember. i can’t really find fault with CBs that come up and score on set pieces and occasionally make a run from deep and score from outside the box…
and as MoMoney said, 5 points back with a game in hand is pretty nice, and happens to be better than 18 other teams.
finally, arsenal have started “winning tough.” 3-2 comeback away at standard liege after being 2-0 down inside 10 minutes? or, if you’d like a league example, a 1-0 win away against a very solid fulham side. it might actually be the worst 90 minutes the arsenal have played this season, but it was quickly forgotten because they scraped out the win.
while i agree there’s a long way to go, i think you have to give credit where it’s due.

Of course Hughes has a point: the MOTD pundits don’t watch all the games. Heck, I’d be surprised if they watch half of them.
They’re too busy spending 25 minutes in highlights of any match involving the big four and then another 10 minutes breaking things down — even if nothing happened in the match, like what happened on Sunday.
Although its quite refreshing to see highlights longer than 30 seconds on MOTD (unlike FSC, ESPN, et al), the punditry is borderline masturbatory toward the big for.

I’ve been watching this show every week and I would have to agree but I think it’s even more obvious when it comes to being critical of the reffing. Now last weekend isn’t a good example because one game in particular was a sad day for referees everywhere. However in general I feel the referees are commented on, and then somewhat tossed aside as if no thought should be put into it, they just suck.

To be fair, if I looked like Tevez, I’d probably want to go ahead and retire–find a nice little belltower to live in or bridge to hide under for the rest of my days…

This saddens me. I still think Tevez made the wrong decision to leave Man Utd. The guy scores lots of goals, and big goals too. If he stuck it out I’d imagine he would have gone on to have a nice strike rate with the red devils too. The thing is that Tevez has always gone for the money, and the stature of club he has gone onto has always been UP. I doubt he will retire… he’s probably just frustrated that the Man City project isn’t panning out the way it seemed. The guy is a great striker, and I don’t care what he looks like. I hope he’ll stay in the game purely for the gamessake of losing a great player.

Hallo,
kennt jemand die Suma-Group? Auf meinem Vertrag steht außer Sumagroup noch was von emion interaktive medien gmbh aus Lübeck.
Vor einigen Monaten habe ich einen Anruf von Suma-Group bekommen. Zwar reagiere ich im Moment
allergisch auf diese lästigen Kaltaquise-Anrufe. Ich wollte der emion interaktive medien gmbh über meinen
Anwalt eine Unterlassungserklärung zukommen lassen, weil die Suma-Group permanent gegen
geltende Gesetze (§ 7 UWG) verstößt. Wenn ich gemein gewesen wäre hätte die Sumagroup harte
Strafen zahlen müssen. Der Geschäftsführer der Sumagroup hätte dann bis zu 250.000,- Euro zahlen müssen und
wäre ansonsten 6 Monate ins Gefängnis gewandert. Der Verbraucherschutz ermittelt gegen die Suma-
Group, wenn man ihm den Sachverhalt schildert.6 Monate Haft für die Geschäftsleitung der emion interaktive medien gmbh?
Die permanenten Verstöße durch die Suma-Group ließen nicht nach. Von Gesetzen hatten die noch nie
gehört. So schien es wenigstens.Da ich aber kein Schwein bin dachte ich mir, ich höre mir das ganze mal an. Schließlich ist es nicht ganz
uninteressant bei Google auf den ersten Rängen zu landen. Und genau das hat mir der Telefonverkäufer
der Suma-Group versprochen.Jetzt bin ich um einige Erfahrungen reicher. Für mich ist das alles Abzocke. Meine Ergebnisse haben sich
in keinem Fall verbessert. Im Gegenteil. Duch die Manipulation bei Google bin ich sogar in den Rängen schlechter
zu finden als vorher. Eine echt ätzende Erfahrung die ich mit der Suma-Group gemacht habe und die mich
mehrere tausend Euro gekostet hat.Zwar hat mir der Telefonverkäufer garantiert, dass ich bei Unzufriedenheit mein Geld zurück erhalte. Das
war auch der Grund, weshalb ich den “Vertrag” eingegangen bin. Das war aber völlig für den Arsch! Nun
will keiner mehr was davon wissen. E-Mail Anfragen werden nullinger beantwortet.
Ich habe nicht mehr bezahlt und will mein Geld zurück.Als ich im Internet nach den Geschäftsgebahren der Suma-Gropu gesucht habe bin ich auch auf sms77.de
Abzocke gestoßen.Im Forum steht über Emion: (Inzwischen hat Emion das Impressum geändert und verfälscht.)
http://www.sms77.de/t,2994-Quality-SMS-nicht-mehr-ueber-deutsche-Routen.htmlHier sieht man, mit welchem Muster die Firma vorgeht, denn die hängen alle zusammen und
stecken unter einer Decke. Erst Versprechungen machen und dann abzocken! Ich fühle mich brutal abgezockt!
Ich fühle mich von der Firma http://www.emion.de betrogen und ausgesaugt. Die wollen nur meine Kohle.Sagt mir bitte, ob ich eine Chance habe aus den Knebelverträgen der Suma-Group zu kommen. Möglicherweise
wegen arglistiger Täuschung?Wenn jemand auch auf die Suma-Group http://www.emion.de reingefallen ist bitte PM an mich.
Suchmaschinenoptimierung ist kein Hexenwerk. Ich mache das jetzt alleine und habe bessere Erfolge. Diese
Suchmaschinen-Optimierungsdienste braucht kein Mensch! Die versprechen alle das Blaue vom Himmel. Siehe
Emion! Ich warne ausdrücklich vor emion interaktive medien gmbh – suma-group.comFrank

I disagree with Hughes on this one, the comments were entirely fair given the nature of the mistakes, and unfortunately for defenders, it doesn’t matter if they deal with 80% of their duties well, they get judged for their mistakes, which were so basic in City’s case, they had to be vilified. Hughes is just doing his job, protecting the fragile confidence of his players by directing criticism elsewhere. It’s looking increasingly unlikely City can break the top 4 this season, but given I live in Holland, I won’t be betting on it, as this http://tiny.cc/A9E8V shows, the value I get is terrible!
