I simply do not understand why people go on about Rodri ? really, the Everton player was determined to be offside. Nothing else matters. The free kick to restart the game by Ederson was from the Offside position.

Doesn’t matter, pal, their frustration is glorious.

Equal first with Zinchenko's mazy run into the box, coolly flooring the defender and chipping it in.
That just changed the whole mentality.

Correct but it doesn’t suit the Merseyside narrative.

Been a strange season in many ways . We never give up even on the odd off day shite performance, but I think the away win at Arsenal when they were on a high and we were going through a tired spell but getting results my most important moment in the long long PL campaign.

Pep used his subs brilliantly yesterday (for a change, most would say). Each of those decisions could have been the most important. But equally, any of those players could have slipped into the nervous state that seemed to have gripped the starting 11. Zinch bucked that trend from his first touches. Everything he did was positive. My MOTM despite only playing 45 minutes. A change of mentality at just the right time which seemed to inspire those around him.

Peps heart ruled his head with the starting line up yesterday, totally fucked up playing Fern at CB because it was his last game for city . Stones at CB and Zinchenko LB and Cancelo his natural RB all day long .

How we got there as Champions was again a long journey of ifs and buts, tiny little incidents like a tackle here or a shot there.
In the great scheme of things most of those things seemed almost irrelevent at the time.
But a journey is a journey and like all journeys it had to end. So for me there can only be one moment that encompasses the whole season in one single action.

The movement of Fernandinho as he moved upfield unchallenged. A brief stop, then further upfield into a gathering of City players where no opposition players could oppose him as he lifted the Premier League trophy (again)....AND SHOWED THE WORLD THAT CITY ARE THE THE CHAMPIONS OF ENGLAND AGAIN.

Without doubt, the most important and best moment of the season.

I think he left Zinch out as he was so poor at West Ham but Sunday when he came on was the best I've ever seen him for us. Fern was definitely heart over head for me as he was bad at West Ham as well and they were targeting him big style in that 1st half - Watkins murdered him constantly.
As far as most important moment when we win it by a point then every point was crucial but we had years of if we were behind at half time we were beaten and that's changed this season with Arsenal away, West Ham away and Sunday. Twice now we've been 2 down and we got 4 points from those games.

With Zinch it's quite simple - if he has any serious defending to do, he can't do it. Slow, lets the ball drop behind him, gives it away, plays people onside. When the team isn't up to much attacking-wise and he can play forward, in his actual midfield position he's much better. Not always brilliant distribution but he had a field day on Sunday. I suspect a little anger at Russia may have contributed.

The final whistle on Sunday
That confirmed us as champions. In the previous 38 games there will have been moments which were vital in those games but as individual moments weren’t important as a whole picture as without all of them together we might not have garnered enough points to be champions

I think the Arsenal away game was huge. We were outplayed for most of the game, but managed to steal three points. It kept our momentum going and I think we would have struggled for a couple of weeks had we lost.
