At
the other end of composure comes a game from the weekend that was chaos at
best. Manchester City went up against Aston Villa and took a not-so-pretty
victory, but a victory nonetheless. Defensive plights were followed by
goalkeeping errors, and goals for each team followed. At just three minutes,
Villa goalkeeper Guzan played an uncomfortable pass out of the back right to
Aguero’s feet, and he wasted no time putting City one goal up. Similar things
happened on the other end of the field, however, as a mixup in City’s defense
gave Villa a comparably easy goal. Nearing the end of the game, Villa looked
like they were making a viable comeback. Then, City substitute Fernandinho came
through for his team and put in a late winner, giving City a scrappy win to put
them in second.
Manchester
City really needs to get their game together if they want any shot at reaching
Chelsea (however slim). Chelsea still sits comfortably at the top of the table
with fewer games played, and they have looked much more composed than City did
today. Even to stay in second place ahead of Arsenal, Manchester City will have
little luck playing like they did today. Looking ahead, there is much to be
done for the team during the summer, and they are by no means without need of a
few players.
