the almost idiotic tactics stuart pearce employed in today’s U21 match between england and italy make me so happy we got rid of him. he’s a good, honest man, but sometimes you really have to attack, and england don’t have a horrible U21 side, nor did city have a really poor side last year either, at least not on the pitch. there were a couple of teams we really should have taken it to, and more service and chances for samaras, corradi, and the like might have raised their confidence a bit.
