Yaya done well coming back but lescott bossed defence and dug the leagues best defender and current city captain out of a hole time and time again. He HAS to be MOM for me.

Great result that, not to be under rated. We held our own away from home against a very good team.

Well impressed with the come back, we stayed focused and worked hard.

Good run out, good for morale, no injuries, happy days!!

Good game from Lescott - nice to see Kompcott back in action together.

Qualitat! Bobby got it right and beat an unbeaten team on their manor. Well done the lads and here was me thinking 'What does Yaya actually do!'.

Looking forward to the return leg, and let's hope that goes to plan.

Would it be fair to say the rehabilitation of Nigel was critical to our victory tonight?

Like most of us, - and forget the 'favourite player' tag as that's a longstanding thing, - I've been concerned that, due to his 'contract issues', his heart might not have been in his performances in recent months but, following on from his steady performance at Villa on Sunday, tonight was more like the old Nige
And he gave us the added security that we were lacking at Sunderland and Everton,.....to name but two

My vote goes to Joleon as he was very impressive tonight against a very tricky Porto front line. Yaya immense as usual and glad to see him back.
Big big result. Can sleep well now !

An old cliche but getting back Yaya was like having a new signing. Also pleased that Kun had a rest and then came on so spectacularly. Who needs Tevez? Lescott also played very well as everyone has said.

That ranks as probably our only real quality away result in Europe since Paul Power scored at the San Siro imo. I still think we're riddled with mediocrity in our attacking play, but today was the kind of gritty victory the rags usually get credit for without having to actually do anything gritty.

There were just one or two little signs of football starting to break out in the 2nd half too. We may be on the verge of getting our shit back together.

Loved Mario's Mark Bright impression for the 1st goal. He put himself about a bit tonight without doing anything stupid. Well done to the lad.
