Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting

Oh dear Mr De Jong, after Sundays performance against Newcastle that saw City win 2-1 it would seem you have been taking tips from the, 'Vinnie Jones School of Hard-knocks' a little too far.

You see Vinnie would go for the cheeky ball grab here and there but no, De Jong doesn't bother with that kind of foreplay. Instead he opts to go in for a tackle (of a different sort off course) that left Hatem Ben Arfa with a double leg-break, ouch!


This is a perfect example of the kind of stunt I like to pull when playing Fifa. Just as my opponent is about to score a goal as a last resort I opt to use violence to prevent a goal from being scored. This however is something I wouldn't expect to see in Premiership standard footy.

Unfortunately enough for De Jong, thanks to his optimism at demonstrating excellent kicks that were, 'Fast as lighting' he has now been dropped from the Netherlands squad for upcoming matches against Moldova and Sweden.

HE WAS TRAINED WELL

Netherlands coach Bert Van Marwijk was said to have a problem with the way
Nigel "needlessly looks to push the limit" and who can blame him.

I bet he wished he saved those moves for the dance floor and not the football pitch.

In my opinion, "Those kicks were fast as lightning, in fact it was a little bit frightening BUT De Jong did it with expert timing".
