A brilliant 3 points.
Ozil is a prick.

Agreed. Sanchez is as well. I am not sure I want a player that dirty at City.

2-1 was a great result given the spells where we passed like shite.

3-1 was even better - did you switch off early?

We can thank our resident expert phips for that rule

At the end it was a good win.

I am worried at our performance on the back, we conceided 2 with WBA, 2 with Napoli and today also. We outscored every time, but we need to pay more attention. Last year, after a performance like today, Arsenal would had won at least a point.
Today, even when Lacazzete scored, I was 100 % certain we will win.

Things like this are coming natural looking at how good we really are. That win at Bournemouth and maybe the Scouse game, without us understanding on the moment, helped us reach the next level.

I think Silva ran the show today, even if he was sloppy at times. KDB also.

Not a fantastic performance, but when we can say that after a 3-1 win with Arsenal (and it could had been 7), it means that we really mean business.

Hope the international break will be good for us.

Fucking awesome .

Another positive for me is that Arsenal will clearly take points off of other "top sides" if they play like that a few more times.

Fucking awesome .

How was the cheap beer though?

[Swales4ever]

OH MY GOD.

We are stupendous. No words.

What a fucking style of play.

THIS!
sums up what I saw, pretty nicely.
the fact that focus/accuracy/ruthless in front was, as several have noted, below the usual average standard doesnt detract a chip to the overall meaning of the game.

to cite one of MC's recent pearls: "City: we play sexy football when and as we want!" (or something to the same effect )

and, also, THIS:

Sanchez really is a moaning little twat. Do we want that?!

NO, THANKS!
Aware of Pep's love but truth also is that we have already the three best wingers of the league (in Sanè, Sterling and Bernie Silva), two of which, at least can easily directed and teached to play "El falso nueve".
No need for the moaning cunt, absolutely! can see only problems from his addition to the dressing room.

Arsenal brought their A game and we swatted them away , Whinger moaning as normal , it coud have been 6

[zuricity]

Can‘t believe Whinger has the balls to say “Sterling dived well, for the penalty”.

I'm surprised he saw it.

[Mase]

Serious?! Like Sterling would ever consider them now he’s just been accused of that

[Swales4ever]

Can‘t believe Whinger has the balls to say “Sterling dived well, for the penalty”.

I just don't think the paedo has got the balls. period.
but when it comes to moaning, You know, he's as good as an old Rod Laver's volley.
ashamed of nothing!

[london blue 2]

Guardiola: They tell me it was offside & I don’t like to win that way but sometimes Arsenal win at Burnley 0-1, 96th min, with a hand

Classic line
