Mancini took off Tevez far too early; Silva took too long to get up to the pace of the game.
Perhaps Ya Ya could have been taken off.
But we really have to sort out our 'defending' from corners!

Gave away some soft goals today.Deserved the win but it was a tense last few minutes.

In the end 3 points and top of the league so no complaints.

Probably because we played crap for so much of the game.If I were a Wolves fan I would feel hard done to.
Kolo for the first goal was awful , Lescott for the pen was a joke and we really are getting this zonal marking wrong from corners.

Good to win playing poorly.Tevez did his part superbly , Dzeko proved he can play ( pity Jo taught him how to be offside)Good to see Silva ready to go but apart from that I cant think of that many positives.

This was a so called "rag" performance. We're on a lucky one. Defence didn't look to confident. Kolarov had his best game so far whereas the others were substandard.
3 points and 3 very valid points. This is what's like to be a blue. Blood pressure runs riot as soon as I see a lovely sky blue shirt.

The officials were an absolute disgrace, unbelievable. Big credit to Wolves.. i really like the way they go about things and can't understand why they are doing so badly, they seem to lose nearly every game yet play decent stuff and give teams a real hard time. Although we did our best today with the ref to help them. What a fuclin game!

Sorry bobby that defensive effort is not good enough. Can anyone honestly say that either Lescott ( another rubbish Hughes buy) or Kolo are good enough to partner Kompany. We need a quality centre back. End of. David Luiz for me. We also need Mancini to sort out the zonal defence.

All credit to Wolves the second goal shouldn't have been given but they put up a hell of a show. Don't deserve where they are in the league.

Going forward we're very good indeed and Dzeko really looks the business. As for Carlos fantastic as usual.

Sounds like Weiss was having a really good game for Rangers by the way.

I think he is on telly there, yeah. Imagine that Warren Barton is treated like a real football star somewhere!
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Too much for us oldies - 4-1 up why did I think we were going to let them back in ? Typical City? The game was far too open and we should have strangled them. Probs at the back from set pieces it seems - are the first cracks of pressure appearing. We should have slaughtered them from that position. New CB on the way I think after that

Cracking game, proper heart in the mouth entertainment. Only city could make that game tough though!

Tevez MOTM for me, but Dzeko looks like a cracking player, really looking forward to seeing more of him!


3pts, top of the league and i'm a happy man!

That was an amazing goal scored by Tevez. It would have been a lot easier had he passed it to Dzeko. He's just so used to being the man he thinks he needs to do it on his own. It's not the case anymore. He'll get there.

A really enjoyable second half. Lescotts penalty reminded me of Didi Hamman sticking out his bum and drawing the foul. No way was their third goal over the line.

Never thought I'd say this but Come on SPuds!!

I hope he does the exact same thing in the next game that he has been doing for over a year now.

Its working just fine.

Have you not heard, when Tevez scores we never lose in the league? :)

Not wanting to be funny but up to today's game we have had the best defence in the league. Kolo has been excellent this year and Lescott has done well when he has come in. We have had a blip in the last couple of games which I'm sure Mancini will address.
