Charity Shield

Full time, the scum win it

I see Utd are carrying their usual amount of luck into another new season then.

Yes yes they're a good team, great manager i know, but by god they get more than their fair share of what can only be described as 'game changing' good fortune!

Not sure this game is the best example of that - they were better than City and it was against the run of play when Lescott scored. And Dzeko's goal was a ****up by De Gea.

Yeah but apart from that, they needed luck to get over the line and win.

Whereas another team could spend all game battering a team, hitting the post, keeper playing like a god, all the usual stuff, but with utd...someone will dive in and give a stupid penalty away, or handle the ball when there's no need, or a player will score the only own goal of his 20yr career, or the ref will give them a decision out of nowhere, or the keeper will make a total balls up, you know...stuff like that.

Enjoyed that game... Thought city were ****e.. Silva apart who is a class act, city lacked any real spark, cohesion and leadership and the scoreline flattered city... Gutted it didn't go penalties tho, was looking forward to those...... Can't put my finger on it with city, but for all this money they spend, they just seem to have a lot off overrated overpriced "decent" players.... Barry, Milner, lescott, kolarov are all just meh to me, ineffective... Balottelli and dzeko just don't seem to do anything either

Early doors and maybe knee jerkish, but I'd be ****ing shocked if city challenged for the title... Top 4 yeah but no real challenge for the title unless something major happened ie they sacked Mancini early on and appointed a good manager

How'd Aguero look, how long did he get ?

He was on the bench and didn't come on

Ah, knew he was on the bench, thought he'd have got a few mins.

Ah well, nothing to see here then.

He looked Ok, seemed happy enough and was smiling. might have got blisters on his arse as well as his foot now though.

Don't they ever.

It's really unbelievable how much luck they had over the years.

I was going to say in my reply to Exiled Red when told me Aguero stayed on the bench...."thanks for resisting the tempation to say...Black hair..short and stocky etc etc', but i did'nt.

Then you pop up with the above gem.

Typical ****ing Mancini that. Pay £38m for a star striker and leave him on the bench in a game against your local rivals where a trophy is up for grabs. Soft cunt.

City need that game changer ie Tevez to be contenders, If Aguero doesnt start fantastically they will have issues, just like we will have if Suarez gets injured
