          I know Rudi and I are the only ones who care, but it's gonna suck not seeing Carlito in Champion's League next year. Gonna be interesting to see what things look like next season, I suspect Dzeko and Mario will need to learn how to play simultaneously.

          Or City will just have to go and buy 5 replacements. Such a tough club to follow.

            Mario just pisses me off so much. Unless he gets his shit together I don't wanna see him on the pitch. David Silva gunna need to step up.

            Im pumped to watch them play on ESPN2 tonight against Vancouver. Been a while since I see a Citeh game

                Was just watching that, but

                The United Arab Emirates crushed Lebanon 6-2 in a friendly on Sunday. So perhaps in an effort to make things interesting and perhaps because he simply does not conform to acceptable standards of penalty kicks, the U.A.E.'s Awana Diab decided to attempt an absolutely ridiculous penalty kick. And it worked.

                Diab's setup seemed like any other for a penalty, but as he ran up to the ball, he stopped, turned around and backheeled the ball toward the goal. Stunned by the audacity, madness and nerve it takes to try and score a penalty with your back to the goal, the keeper just stood and watched as the ball trickled into the net.

                Acrobatics aside, the back-flip penalty kick has nothing on this.
                U.A.E. manager Srecko Katanec did not appreciate Diab's creativity, though. He immediately substituted the player out of the match and after the game said that he would be disciplined for the "disrespectful act."

                  EDIT: Don't know why it's not showing teh video player.
                  cause you need to remove all the crap after the end of your link.

                  Basically once you spot the '&' delete that and everything after it.

                        Well, that was a shitty game. City played like ass, escaped with a win. But who cares about that. Yaya Toure took an awkward fall thanks to that shitty ass turf in Vancouver and looked to be injured pretty bad. I hope its nothing serious because he is a key player on this team.

                        Sean Wright-Phillips might be a beast this year though if he gets some PT.

                          Possibly in the Reserve League.

                            I dunno, with Tevez on his way out, I'd say there are some spots to be had. Got Balotelli, Dzeko, Silva, Adam Johnson, Wright-Phillips, Guidetti...all possible options.

                            I do like that young defender they picked up, Savic. He looks like a beast

                              Aren't you guys linked with Kun Aguero? I think you'll be fine without Tevez (who I think will be back in a year a two after he realizes the mistake he made).

                                I dunno man. This team struggled like piss to muster any type of offense last year. If it wasn't for Tevez's 20 goals who knows where they woulda ended up in the Premier League. No body on the team [minus Silva sometimes] showed the ability to create with the ball. Then again it is City, so they might bring in someone like you said. Wouldnt surprise me at all
