Petrov is very decent. Blackburn in total poo down their right hand side.

[Cunny]

We need Finnan fit and at the top of his game for Sunday.

Petrov is a handful.

It's not petrov that's the danger. it's the fact they're just letting city feed him. Lunacy!

£9m and he can't tap that in

that kind of thing happens though sometimes.

i've done it before, and finishing is my one of my best (the only good) qualities!

i know i didn't cost £9 million but it does happen!

Manchester City's Bianchi eyeing Italy return

 

By Patrick Nathanson and agencies

 

Rolando Bianchi, the Manchester City striker, has said that he is missing his home country of Italy and wants to make a return to Serie A.

 

Bianchi, who arrived at Eastlands from Reggina in the summer but has been limited to substitute appearances for much of the season, has found it hard to adjust to life in England.

 

 

"I am learning the language but I have raised the white flag with English food. I don't like it," he said.

 

When asked about the perceived drinking culture in the English game, Bianchi said: "I think I am the only teetotaller in the whole Premier League. My team-mates were surprised when I refused a mouthful of beer.

 

"They looked at me as if I was an extra-terrestrial. Tastes are tastes, and I have chosen for some time - no beer, no wine, no alcopops."

 

It is not just the beer and food that Bianchi has found hard to swallow - he also has had problems with the English referees.

 

"I have had to get used to the referees. Here it's hard for a striker," he said.

 

"In Italy if a defender touches you the referee blows. In the Premier League you don't get a free-kick even if the defender runs you over. I am getting used to this new refereeing rhythm."

 

And Bianchi said that a return to Italy was on the horizon.

 

"I will be back soon for a simple reason. My dream is to wear the national team jersey. Playing abroad won't help me."

 

However, Bianchi does feel affection for Manchester City's loyal supporters.

 

"They made a song just for me with the words of Volare by Domenico Modugno and it's good to hear that rising to the heavens in Italian," he said.
