Played like Champions. Real bottle to pull that out the bag. Wouldn't really know where to start with shaking the hands of each of them. And what a winner, pure football. I think I'll have a bottle of red on the strength of that.

I don't think I've seen a better performance since the takeover.

Coming after an international break, down to ten men, stuffy fucking goal against, Clattenburg, & to score two at the death: Champions.

Unfortunately, all that effort weakens the team for the Ajax game.

I'm not overly worried about Ajax Ted. Dzeko and Aguero did not strain themselves too much today, so they will be OK. With Tevez and Balo on the bench, we have enough to win it.
And yes, Thanks City !

You play like that and you're dying to get on to the pitch for the next game. I think they'll be well up for it.

Absolutely superb performance in trying circumstances. Can't pick a man of the match there for all the right reasons.
Your right leg I like; I've got nothing against your right leg. The trouble is neither have you.

Thank you City I love you.

Incredible performance. If you had not been aware of the sending off you would not have realised that in a million years. it seemed 11v11 all the time, with City being the better team all the time. Glad we got the reward in the end.

I'd have been happy with a point when Dzeko came on the pitch. Can't believe how much spirit we have now. A bottle of red tonight for me also, s1ty m.

Maybe, but I'm not sure, Ted. I think winning like that is a massive lift for the whole club. The Rags have been doing it for years, now it seems we do it. QPR, Fulham, today. All helps add belief and that can sometimes counter tired legs.

Fucking Richards though, he's a beast!

Not too worried about tiredness on Wednesday. Kolarov, Zabaleta, Milner, Aguero and Dzeko hardly/didn't play today.

Plus Kidd reckoned Silva isn't completely out of the reckoning for Wednesday, although that could have just been kiddology (intended) to keep Ajax guessing

Had to see City in a pub where they had the rags, so i was basically all the time on the phone.

I don't know about you, but i really love this comeback and winning in extra time thing that we do since that game with Villareal.

It feels like we're finally finding our way back to the form we were in at the end of last season. We were great against SUnderland, and today was just a fantastic team performance. We were all over them until Milner got sent off, and we 10 against 11, we still were the better team - and to get back from 0-1 in that way! I'm really looking forward to the the coming games now.

In the first half of last season, when we were sweeping sides away with some scintillating football, I seem to recall that some misgivings were expressed on this Forum as to how we would handle things if ever we went behind in a game, as that was one aspect which we hadn't encountered at that time.

Events since then, culminating in today, have certainly put any such concerns to bed. We are magnificent in adversity and, like Rooster Cockburn, we have "True Grit".

Thank you our City.

We were excellent today. We were in complete control of the game and West Brom's goal came out of nothing, on their first attack of the second half.

Our finishing is still a concern though and we need to stop wasting so many chances.

However, as others have said above, a win like this should deliver a massive confidence boost to the club so hopefully our season will really kick-on now and we get a good win against Ajax in the week.

same here. plus never forget that these games builds confidence and self believe like nothing else. I fully expect They are gonna fly over the moon at the Amsterdam Arena. Also Milner who will be pivotal in the middle of park, didn't waste many energies sadly.
Completely agreed with Ted and others for the rest: very proud!
Just hope Mancini today stamped in his mind that Dzeko is the sole proper center forward we have, the one with the most natural killer instinct when properly fed and MUST start all the BIG GAMES upfront. I am a fan of rotation at big Clubs aiming at big prizes, but HE MUST start 2 out of 3 games and MUST BE KEPT hot.

COME ON CITEH!

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...


In Roger Ailes/Donnie Drumpf's words: "don't know it for a fact, but many people say so..."
there must be some truth, then!

I don't think we should be going into the Ajax game thinking its 3 points. There's no easy games in the champs league! Hopefully get through ok though

Thanks City

Went to Atherton Colleries where the Munes were doing a dance and a jog cos City were down to ten men and Bolton were getting beat. Both won and shut the cunts up! Our winner was heart breaking especially since the Cheadle opposition joined in!

I'm so proud because this is how the champions form looks like, always able to win no matter who are we playing, home or away or even if we down to 10 players.
I just noticed something, non of our new signings played, Sinclair was the only one who made the bench and didn't even play.
The funny thing is we have too many defensive midfielders and we short in attacking midfielders as Nasri is the only one available for the next game as Silva is injured and Milner is suspended.

After Dortmund, Mancini immediately said he knew what the problem is. He then picked a side for Sunderland with none of the new players. Same thing yesterday. The result has been a hugely improved overall team performance and signs of the returning beast from last season. The problem is, therefore, tinkering about with the title winning team and trying to fit too many new players in. As for the quality of new players, that is another question.

And yet some clowns on here are already suggesting we drop Lescott again.

It was pretty obvious that the changes were cocking up the team & we still haven't fully recovered from it (Vinny's mistake really set him back after a confident week) but the more The Champions play together, the better they will get, then it will be easier for the new players to fit in, once the team is functioning properly.
