"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

I can't believe Slim missed to pick up on Zurich's "mute point". I guess he couldn't hear it...

It seems pretty clear that the boss saw that when he put Javi on at the end of a match he tightened things up for us,that seems to have led him to think Javi should start certain games when he is fit.Obviously the geniuses and experts on here could see that that was all a mistake,Javi has only been playing well for a few games.Although the facts and stat's do not back up what the experts and geniuses on here say I suppose it must be noted that although it can be proved that they are talking through their arse it's best to let them contiue in their deluded world.

Might just be me but I think Vinny is happier to step forward when Garcia is in the team, knowing that he will cover him.

One swallow does not a summer make. However he is the 2nd best option after ferandiniho in the central position so until we get someone better he's an important part of our squad.

It's a potentially huge help to the squad, that he has recently found this kind of form, at a time when we desperately need it.

Lets hope he can keep it going.

No Slim , not at all. I didn't think he played badly when some on here think he did. Also , the reverse. I thought he had his normal game yesterday, just like on other occasions.

My point is simply , he is the scapegoat , or rather has been used as a scapegoat on here, rather than looking to the real cause of the problems. Specifically when the midfielders pressing forward lose the ball and Garcia is left exposed.

Furthermore, he did a better job as a cb than Demic did as a def midfielder. In my opinion.

Recently there was a thread criticising David Silva. Almost heresy , but inspite all his skills he still is hopeless at taking corners.

As difficult as it might be for you to grasp, i believe for the most part many posters on here agree on many , many things.

Kompany's shocking passing to no one ,rarely gets picked up . Yet the the same people keep going on about Lescotts passing, every game he plays , everything he does.

Does Silva get this critical analysis ? Rarely.

The whole team played well yesterday. Edin stood out up front; Silva in midfield , Javi and Komps and Joleon.

Even yaya had a great game , even if he is petulant( and he won't get away with this behaviour on tuesday).

Now stop being childish and indulge in decent exchanges rather than lowering yourself to insults, i've always had the opinion you were beyond that kind of thing.

I think you are right with some of what you say,however the fact for me that we are 3pts behind the leaders with a far superior GD and still in 4 comps suggests to me that we have had more than a swallow.

The ability to do any one or two things exceptionally well will often cause supporters to overlook your flaws. It's been this way forever.

Silva can't shoot and takes some shocking corners, he however unlocks defended like nobody I've ever seen in a city kit, links neatly with yaya and Nasri and dictates tempo in tons of games.

Vinny can sometimes be too Hollywood on the ball and do stupid shit. He is also the best defender in the world.

Garcia most will agree has had a few good games now, but the fact is if he fucks up there is nothing in his game to suggest he is worth the risk. He has no truly outstanding attribute other than occasionally having a decent game. Granted this used to be acceptable when we were rubbish, but I certainly feel no guilt about my expectations rising as our outlay on players did.

Javi definitely copped some harsh words on here, but he also did himself no favours with some of the awful displays he put on over an 18 month period. I'm not one who thinks being on big money makes you immune to insults and abuse, but I certainly think being on big money should require you earning it on the park.

He was in good form before his injury, and this is a continuation - very promising. I've criticised him this season but that was when he was filling in as a central defender.
