Happy again now. Personally, I'd rather have 4-1 than 3-0. I think it's received wisdom that being miserly in defence is the sign of a great team. Personally, I think one that regularly gets four is both exciting and great.

Would be nice not to concede occasionally, though.

How's Kolo been doing?

A dilemma for Mancini for the Bayern game: Kolo or Lescott

Kolo started poorly..very poorly but got better as the game went on. still shaky overall imo.
Id go Lescott.

AJ with an assist and a goal.

If he played like that for 90 minutes he'd start every game.

We are totally spoilt. I remember every goal we scored was like a special moment in my life. Now its more like "good, and we should be getting another"

I'm glad the players are still motivated for these sort of games, City of past would get complacent at 2-0.

Must remember to remain passionate.

Sounds like Adam Johnson is now staking his claim to a starting place.
Can't wait to watch tonight, particularly SuperMario's latest goal, and celebration!

I'm quite disappointed with how we played for most of it. Strange thing to say after a 5-1 result.

I think we definitely did get complacent at 3 nil. Nasri and Aguero off and AJ on with Mario and all of a sudden there was a little less work being done and less cover in the middle and it showed,hence the introduction of Nigel. We started to get hold of the ball again and 2 more goals was the result.

You have to laugh at that Mario finish and (non) celebration. Quality yet again.
