Kolo for me.

Silva

That is the last time I agree with Rat Boy!

Dirty stinking bastard!

Between 3, but kolo

Silva

Kolo all the way, brilliant today.

Honourable mention to Rodwell. Played 53mins but he was fantastic

May I just add that Mancini got the tactics spot on and even though a few were a little mythed by the decision not to play Carlos and bring Rodders into the side, it all seemed to go very well. Very well indeed.

García in my book. Great cover at the back and good in possession. Milner second. Good hour from Rodwell.

kolo

Gone for LCS as I thought that was his best stint in a City shirt, don't agree that he is LCS as the lads been injured. Lets see him kick on from here and whether he maintains that level of performance, also thought he combined well with Ricky as well

I don't buy it. We've been crying out for Yaya to get up the park, bring another in behind and play 1 up top. And we don't get paid x million a year to manage God's own, so why did it take him so long to deploy the same 'master stroke' that served him so well last year? Rodwell's injury? But Garcia was fit, as was Barry....

Rodwell played well but for me kolo was flawless. No surprise it was him who cleared after joes great save.

I think Kolo would like to stay and is playing for a contract. Performances like that id say he is well worth another year.

flawless? does that include his part in the pen or when he risked conceding another by pushing ramires over?

no you may not add, because lots were bitching about the selection before the game...

Were you one of them beefy ? i'm getting old and can't remember :-)

What Does He Do? For score when we need to and great today overall .

Three way tie for me...Garcia, kolo played perfect but i voted Yaya cause he shows up when we really need him.

Ok very good. Fucking forum police.

I'm going for Rodwell as he's been very unlucky with injuries this season, but was superb when on the pitch today. He was excellent defensively, but also involved in much of our attacking play. Plus he's a handful for the opposition on set pieces too. If he can stay fit, we could have an excellent player on our hands.

Honourable mentions also to:
- Hart: not an awful lot to do but great penalty save which will boost his confidence
- Kolo: did get caught out on the penalty, but commanded the defence today
- Milner: excellent as always, hopefully Mancini continues to play him, consistently one of our best players
- Garcia: improving with each game and appears to be settling into the side nicely, he had a great game today
