I smile everytime I think about all the Man U fans at the Stoke game, they must have been so smug 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' />

And when the Stoke fans did the Poznan 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />

What am I wrong about?

My idea has never existed? It does exist, in Spain, Germany, Holland, anywhere in South America.. In fact only Inter under Mourinho and the English sides have deployed such anti-footballing tactics and it's catching on.. It'll become more obvious next season, 4-1-4-1 camped on the edge of the 18 yard line hoping for a 0-0..

It's laughable, ugly, boring and anti-football

I'm not being stubborn about anything.. You're being stubborn. I'm currently watching Getafe vs Zaragoza, Zaragoza need to win to survive, anything other and they're down.. They've attacked from the first minute, winning 1-0, looking for more goals.. Normal football.

booo...wrong!

What so QPR should have done that against a team which include Sergio Aguero, David Silva, Yaya Toure, Vincent Kompany, Carlos Tevez, Samir Nasri and Joe Hart?

Bris while I admire your principles you're simply incorrect on this point for a couple of really simple reasons. No-one is saying they want to see this all the time, what people are saying is that it's acceptable to think about a game logically and what the best chances of getting a point or three actually are. Is it to defend and catch them on the counter and score 2 goals like QPR? or is it to set up open against a team who has scored 89 goals in the league this season and has some of the best players in the world who will cut you apart like a hungry lion eating a carcass ?

Thinking pragmatically is key in this unequal world of ours, so sometimes survival has to come above playing nice football. If finances were more even then I would move more towards your side of the argument but the sad fact is they aren't. Also you fail to recognise the beauty of a different style of football, the david vs goliath situation where a team gives everything, makes heroic blocks, cheats a bit and does everything possible to win. To me this is part of what makes football wonderful and I feel sorry for you if you miss the beauty of that. Again I am not saying every game go out and do it, but now and again it makes for good watching and keeps a different side of the game alive.

What he said.

YR you are a cunning linguist.

Roll on the days when these rich elitist football teams sod off to the 'European Super Ultra Amazing League, starring those billionaires'.

You've all got a point. We wanted the best league in the world and we got a top heavy version. So there we have it, little old QPR have to play defensively against the might of Manchester City. It's the truth of the situation.

Using the Getafe vrs Zaragoza match is well dodge. Only 4 points between them in the end. Man City <52 points> QPR.

Erm it was Sunderland.

Forest 1 Derby 2 10 men game. Did nothing for 90 minutes yet still pulled away a win with two fluky goals against the run of play. None of you can criticize QPR at all who played very well

Barcelona 0-2 Hercules

Real Madrid 2-3 Zaragoza

Both against teams with superior and more expensive players than Man Citys..

In the end, anti-football lost today as Man City actually beat QPR.. Who knows, maybe had QPR actually tried to attack they'd have won the game.. But we'd never know, as they played for 0-0.. Haha theres nothing worse than playing for a draw and losing anyway..

I can't wait for Euros, going to see some attacking football and creativity.. I also can't wait for England to put in a subdued poor defensive performance and 'fans' to moan and criticise it like anything..
