City v Gunners

[Swiss]

Kolarov is a winger really

[Swiss]

Well taken that! Just offside though.
Confidence boost???

[KunDB]

I guess you dont remember Laurent Charvet?

Memory loss is best in such circumstances. Mind he did score once I seem to recollect.

[Swiss]

Jensen or tarnat had rocket shots and memorable goals for left backs

[Swiss]

Did everyone else miss that we scored???

[KunDB]

Told you Sterling could not score in an open net, but a protected one I did not mention.

[Swiss]

Get in! Deserve the lead at this point

[KunDB]

Let us not forget our defence is absolute dross.

[Swiss]

Fuck yeah! Good second half that. Arsenal didn't look as though they had anything in the tank!

[Lekos]

That will do. Great result.

[KunDB]

In possession and going forward we are cracking defending we just crack every time.

[Hesperus]

Much more incisive attacking in the 2nd half. Higher tempo and a deserved win. If we can do the business at Hull on Boxing Day we'll be on form for Liverpool on NYD.

Pep. Please do some defensive coaching though!

[Ludo]

Centre forwards? What are they?

Polar opposite of the first half, chasing, harrying, pressing and a bit more teeth in the tackle. Still dodgy as fuck at the back though.

3 points and played excellent 2nd half..well done lads

[zacc]

deffo a game of two halves. Good  to see City up their game look like they wanted it whereas Arsenal not sure what they'd had in their tea?

[Neil Mcnab]

The game of two halves. We were pathetic in the first half, Arsenal returned the favour in the second half. A great goal by Sterling, with an even better assist. Not too shabby an assist by Silva for the first.

This squad needs major surgery. Surely, even with his mistakes, Stoner is better than Kolarov at CB?

Clichy was dependable and quick. Both seem to be on the way out.

Mildly amusing reading this thread after the match    Clearly a game of two very different halves.

Well done City!

I thought City were the better side in both halves really but definitely more so in the second. It was a well deserved win in the end. Great goals from City and a very enjoyable game overall. Arsenal were very disappointing and offered little. The second half City is the City I'd like to see a lot more of. We had the urgency we all so often lack. Arsenal often struggled to get in our half and as Pep says if they don't get in your half they find it very difficult to score. That is his main approach to defending really.

The second half City is the City I'd like to see a lot more of. We had the urgency we all so often lack.

Doesn't happen enough does it. Apparently the last time we won a Premier League game from a losing position at half time was November 2012!  (v Spuds)

Aye I'm glad I was at the game, some miserable buggers on here! 

Arsenal didn't manage another decent effort on goal after they scored, they got what they deserved, nothing. Not a single bad individual performance out there today.
