Everyone is saying that we really missed Aguero and Fernandinho in the last match (I agree with you guys on that) but actually the player that we really missed was Samir Nasri.. City without Nasri/Silva are quite predictable..There was no one to play one touch passing game with Silva in the attacking half which generally Nasri and Aguero always do.. Secondly, Ive always said this and will say it again that Navas is a one dimensional player.. He always runs down the sideline, looks to beat players with his pace and then tries to cross the ball into the box.. He gave nightmares to defenders in La Liga doing that but in EPL the tempo of the game is much higher and you wont be successful in doing that all the time.. I posted in another City group when we signed Navas that what we needed was a goal scoring winger and IMO we still need one.. Someone like Reus, Bale, Sanchez, who can cut inside and add a little more attacking flair.. Lastly, since Fernandinho is out for 3 to 4 weeks and with no proper cover for him I could see us struggling against Barca in the midfield.. It would be really interesting to see what tactics Pellegrini uses against them.. IMO, we should be playing with Negredo upfront, Jovetic on the left flank, Silva should be played behind the striker and Milner in place of Navas on the right flank (just to provide some extra cover to the defense).. Navas should be used as a second half substitute coz he can use his pace against the tired legs of the opposition.. and always remember guys that our club has given us many reasons to smile and cheer.. This one thing wont take it away.. Thick or thin.. #CTWD
