Very pleased with that 1st half.Some nice attackin play combined with excellent defending from Vinny....Kollers and Boyota playin well to......Good to see Mario keeping his head and workin hard..Should of had a penalty.
Sunderland looking abit stronger now they have switched to a 5 man MF but dont think we should change our formation just cuz they have..Were doin well with 2 up top..Im sure theres a couple of more goals in us.

IMO it was a great penalty, keeper did all he could and did not get it. Had the keeper gone the other way everyone would be saying what a great penalty.

I say put dzeko on for tevez. He seems to be trying too hard to end his goal drought at the expense of the team

Need to get him the ball further up the pitch where he can do something with it, the longer the half went on the further towards our defence he was playing.

If we start chancing 45º balls to the wings we will murder them, have to push the fullbacks up though to lend weight and shouldn't be an issue with them only having 1 up front.

Following the game on 5 live today. I love Robbie Savage's enthusiasm. Never heard him say a bad word about City. Good lad.

It would be nice if AJ could be involved a bit more as he feels like a real threat given half a chance.


I saw him beaten and recover, gave up a corner but stopped the cross coming in, can't ask for more than that.


That's the one I commented on as it happened, he got beaten to his right but recovered and blocked the cross.

This is doing our goal advantage over Spurs a whole lot of good. Come on Balotelli, grab a fourth for us.

I think the international break might have actually done us some good.

Feeling optimistic.

Compared to his fullback appearance against Chelsea Boyata is looking very confident in the opposition's half.
