Safe to say now, first top flight double over Wolves since 80/81.

4 wins in 5 is certainly alot nicer than 1 in 8 or whatever it was, who cares now!

more important than my 1st correct result is the fact another goal puts us up to 5th

Rather let him get a round of applause and protect him from a cynical wolves tackle late on.

Fan-fuckin-tastic

3-0 away from home

Very solid in defence

Shit loads of chances created

Two wins and two clean sheets.

Not great opposition but you cant ask for better than that.

Quality match by the blues especially near the end and how good were Mancinis changes in that match? Every time he saw something not working he immediately fixed it. 2 games 2 wins and 2 clean sheets!

Loved how Mancio was still giving instructions with few seconds to go being 3-0 up, that's the way it should be. Too bad Robbie missed that shot from the box edge, maybe it would have been better to lay it for the oncoming teammate (was it Zabba?).

Anyway, two games, five goal scored ZERO conceded, one win at home, one away, I guess Mancini's reign has started pretty well. And I got my prediction right with this 3-0 win, which is not bad either (although I would have loved a fourth goal :D)

No injury, just appreciation 12 in 22 is that now?

Once we got going we were fab, these teams arent walk overs, but we sucked up their pressure and started to go at them, you could see our left was going to give us the break through but they kept fouling bellers or petrov and even barry down that side. Then soon as we got a good free run and cross in, goal.

What was all the fuss about from McCarthy????? That offside thing before the freekick for Gary's goal? Get over it Mick, you'd still have lost

Garrido is the best free kick taker at City by miles and I am not convinced there is better in the prem! He does that for fun in training.

Was I pleased that Tevez didn't take it.

I honestly think he's proved more in 2 games than Hughes has all season. Although we hadn't lost more than 2 all season our defence record was the second worst in the prem he fixed that already especially from set pieces.

Considering that with Hughes we drawn with Hull, Bolton, and Burnley just to name three, two consecutive wins against this kind of opposition is pretty good.
