[Archived] Manchester City V Rovers Preview

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Hart and his defence really fudged up there.

Kalinic again

[Balwer]

And to think they took that donkey to the World Cup ahead of Robbo.

think that's bad, have a look at Robert Green's effort against Drogba's free kick.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Doesn't matter how they go in.

[budha]

Hart and Toure couldn't agree who'll clear the ball from 25 yrds and Kalinic sneaked in.

[hollowsr]

By no means just Hart's fault him and Toure left it for each other

[T4E]

I hope the Rovers fans in attendance are making it abundantly clear who England's number 1 keeper is.

Fielding for England

[Rover Down Under]

Very nearly 2-0 there from MB Diouf

[Ricky]

Sounds like a similar goal to niko's one against everton.

[Commondore]

Touré makes a big mistake in letting that ball go, but Hart has business having a go at that ball in the first place.

I've only seen a very choppy video of it but Hart was about 10 yards out of his box so he can't be that blameless.

Hart was quite far outside the area when he mucked up and Kalinic had an easy tap in.

Paul Robinson just dont a spectacular save for the camera.

WHich is why I said NOT JUST his fault

[LeChuck]

Definitely Hart's fault, Toure could have just passed it back to him if he'd stayed in his box. If Hart comes out he's got to take charge, even if that means clattering Toure in the process.

Nice to see Kalinic getting these goals, he never gives up on anything.

[BPF]

We give it away for fun, really annoys me.

[The Rover of Finland]

Did Nelsen come off?

Just think of how great he could be with a proper strike partner .

[RIML]

Did Nelsen come off?

No

[Dan]

Giving the ball away too much, we can't keep possession of we give th ball away so cheaply. The defence need to be more alert also, switched off a few times so far and have nearly been punished.

[budha]

Kalinic holding his hamstring after collision with Hart.

Edit: doesn't look serious.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Nelsen off Olsson on.

[budha]

Now Nelsen coming off, Olsson in.

[BPF]

wahooo watching the match in perfect quality now! pm me for link

Careful, you'll get banned for that.

[RIML]

Did Nelsen come off?

He's just gone off now gutted

[RoverRich]

Olsson on now for Nelsen. Maybe could have bought on Nzonzi and dropped Jones back but might not be a bad move to deal with Johnson's pace as Givet was having a bad time.
