After a great win at chelsea and a great display from maxi kenny brings back the under performing winger ,so he comes in against city has four shots, his best shot he miss hit into the ground and could of gone 20 ft over but got lucky and hart made a good save the other three were a joke and one from 10 feet was that bad it missed by the same distance he shot from, now the lads main job is to run down the line beat players and get good crosses in which he didnt do and after just losing his place to a player who did well you'd think he would be well up for it after saying as much in the press , it seems as though certain players are ok talking a good game but when it comes to actually performing they lack the same enthusiasm that there talking seems to have. :angry:

I thought Downing did alright, got a few crosses in and had a few shots. Don't think it's worth a topic slagging him off.
Downing doesn't pick the team. Sooner or later you and RM are going to stop having a go at the players and turn your attention to Kenny if you dare.
Patience.

Downing is a completely different player to Maxi. He is an out and out winger who hugs the LHS and links up well with Jose while Maxi will cut inside and tends to wander (often to good effect). My two cents is that Kenny saw the threat that Micah Richards posed from the right back position and decided to stick to a more balanced formation.

I agree, he played well for me though that last shot at the end had me screaming to the high heavens. I don't think people should be having a go to be fair.

Im baffled by the Downing bashing for Sundays match.
I though he linked up well with Enrique and Suarez all match. Even his runs were dragging the full back deeper and deeper wide right, causing a few gaps between the full back and Centre half. Suarez exploited this time and again. Same too with Enrique, he was able to double up with Downing and come inside or overlap.
Got to say, sometimes I think posters are just looking for the negative in everything.
And for the record, I thought Hendersons use of the ball was pretty spot on too. He moved the ball well and kept it flowing.
Another player that took flack where there was none

Everybody is accountable, there can be no valid reasons whatsoever for saying it's not. Criticism if fair is justified
It seems some posters think that management are exempt particulary where Kenny is concerned but one things certain Kenny would welcome fair and reasonable criticism and why not ?

Good post. A far more incisive view than my own, but one which I agree with.

Totally agree. Thought the entire team deserved applause on Sunday. I'm not even a Downing fan. To be fair, thought he did o.k.. Funny how people now want the same Maxi nobody cared for after his open goal sitter at Stamford Bridge a year or so back. Downing was played because Maxi lacks his pace, I reckon.
I was still a bit surprised by our 5 across the middle, but hey, we never lost to a team that is battering everyone. Bit more adventure would have made mehappier, but that's a different story.
THought Henderson and Downing contributed like you say, and Downing's major flaws were missinghis chances. We all applauded Jose and Adam and the pair of them (while still playing well) almost gifted city 3 points with severe pass backs.
Most people are pretty fickle - including me.
