Happy with the win....

Good 3 points, thought navas was very good, kolarov much improved in second half.

[branny]

Not happy. Had City 3-1 Kolarov last scorer. Linesman or Hart (whichever way you look at it) has cost me £400.

Shame. Good punt.

[Ted Hughes]

By recent seasons it's a good win I suppose. Kind of game we always fuck up.

Gutted for you but don't start throwing the blame at Joe for that one.

[South Stand Balti]

That's a fantastic 3 points in terrible conditions. Well done those who made the trip. Nasri had an ice pack on his hamstring at the end, hope that is not too bad

[City64]

Fabulous result and massive massive 3 points for us . Fingers crossed Nasri is ok and what a fat cunt that ref is !

[branny]

Gutted for you but don't start throwing the blame at Joe for that one.

Of course not. Linesman's fault. Just wish Joe's nails were a bit longer.

[stevefromdonny]

didn't play anywhere that we can play but 3 points and 12 pts from 4 games

[blues2win]

What is clear is that we HAVE to play three central midfielders against Barca home and away. The trouble is who'd be the third. I'd go for Milner but Pellegrini doesn't fancy him in central midfield. Rodwell hardly has the game time to prove himself and Garcia against Barca!!! If we could find a really good all round midfielder this month it might make our season. Garcia and maybe Micah as well could be sold to pay for him. Boyata would be reasonable cover for Zaba for the second half of the season. The problem is that doesn't solve our problem at centre back and we still need to sort out what to do about covering for Kolarov when he's playing up the pitch which he does most of the time! If we want to look more solid we probably shouldn't play Nasri and Silva at the same time against the top teams.

[ruralblue]

Only got to watch the first half as had to go into work. Chuffed for the three points but wasnt to chuffed in final ten mins of first half, so hope we turned the screw a little in second half.

Still another three gets us back top if only for a few hours.

Good strike but Joe waited an hour before he reacted. If it was a draw or a loss people would be up in arms.

[Cocacolajojo1]

Of course not. Linesman's fault. Just wish Joe's nails were a bit longer.

I don't think that would fly with the crowd who berate him for his shampoo commercials.

He looked Ginger today, wonder if he stunk the dressing room out with fox piss.

Finger nails massaging the head is therapeutic I find.

[nottsblue]

Thought Garcia did reasonably well when he came on. Does simple things well.

[Herb]

I like the fact he has nice hair but the more usual disappointment was the way he still can't deal confidently with crosses - we were well lucky not to lose a couple of goals to his frustrating inability to either catch a cross or put it beyond danger. I'm delighted that we got the points we deserved but IMO if the opposition had been sharper we'd have lost the game due to that gap in his skill set.

[zuricity]

Since we have 5 from 7 games away from home in January ( feel sorry for the fans travelling so many times this month) , we should be able to nail this poor away form tag.

[phips]

good win but hopefully we dont play a 4-4-2 for any big games..it just doest work.
