Just seen an interesting statistic about Sterling.

In his last nine Champions League starts, he's scored five goals and produced five assists as well.

Not bad at all.


But he goes down so easily though..

My brain is still scrambled.
So involved in the game that I found it hard to pick any individual.
Was going to go for Silva for being just a joy to watch but opted for Sane.
I think we have a gem here.

Ah only voted once before realising 2 votes. Anyway kun for me typified what tonight was all about, not for his goals but a moment when he gave the ball away cheaply in their half around the halfway line and tracked back to the left edge of our box and won the ball back and sent sane on his way. Absolute determination and quality. Loved it.

Had I had a second vote well probably Silva closely followed by sane and sterling. Dave is stepping up to the plate as captain phenomenal stuff.

Not bad seeing that exquisite player Falcao gas scored six in the CL so far.

Just got back from the game. Wow - what a feast of entertaining football! Thought Bernado Silva was excellent for them and could possibly be a long term replacement for Merlin?

Our front 5 were incredible. KDB had a great first half but Kun just edged it for me. Terrific work rate and attitude and a belter off a volley, however, the icing on the cake was the assist for Sane for the 5th goal. Showed real unselfishness as he could have had a hat-trick and you could see by the way the whole team celebrated it that the spirit seems good in the camp

Whoever threw the bottle on the pitch to put Falcao off his penalty is my man of the match.

Brilliant displays in attack tonight, can't choose between SASS.

He was obviously (to paraphrase that Royal Navy recruitment advertisement) "born in Colombia, but made in Salford".............. or not. ;)

I think quite a few clubs will be after him this summer. Chelsea are believed to be interested in him. Looks a great prospect and at 22 will only get better

Only 22? Wow, hadn't seen him play before tonight but based on that performance he definitely looks like he'd have what it takes to be an heir to Silva.

Aguero challenged their attack twice on the edge of our box and came away with the ball to build an attack.

Phenomenal display

Sterling ran himself into the ground and Willy's penalty save was a game changer

just got a chance to rewatch the game...you know without all the emotions. Sterling had a fantastic game, best i have seen him in blue. But Kun's second half was unbelievable, we are in for a treat if this continues. But KDB is my captain of this team, the guy has it all and without a doubt will always put in a MoTM performance. Sane is a dream come true, did you see that Jamaican roll.

since we get 2 votes there are really only 2 winners here: Wily and Aguero.

while Willy is to blame for his terrible clearance that lead to the first Monaco goal he saved the pen and had that foot save in the 83rd. BIG saves.

Aguero and Radio Raheem for me. But could've gone for Silva or Aladdin.

In the end voted for Willy as he needs our support and had two game changing moments but David Silva played at the top of his game with the mercurial balanced with a core of steel that has started to come to the fore in the last year or so, what a player!

Went for Aguero and Sane, but could easily have been Silva. Caballero made one error in 90 minutes, which he unfortunately got punished for, but the pen save and the one with his right foot from the former Chelsea striker were top class. I was particularly happy with the way Stones recovered from gifting them the third goal as well.

Great atmosphere in the South Stand. Can't speak at all this morning.

Did phips really post this with no negatives or wind ups. Must be a first.

For the record I agree 100%
