City v Eagles Match Thread

[KunDB]

C'mon City

City XI | Ederson, Walker, Stones, Otamendi, Mendy, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Silva (c), Sterling, Sane, Aguero

Subs | Bravo, Yaya Toure, Bernardo, G Jesus, Mangala, Danilo, Delph

No VK Pep not pleased with him I'm guessing.

[KunDB]

No Aguero/Jesus Partnership up front, perhaps to accommodate Sane.

[KunDB]

I love it.

[Hesperus]

Very poor from us so far and Mendy is now off injured! Fernandinho should have scored to put us in front. Unfortunately Palace look like breaking their goal scoring duck today.

[goat]

i blame the hat

[goat]

not bad this sane

[Hesperus]

Sane continues his scoring form! Great time to score.

[Ludo]

Good goal from Sane but he's been f*cking frustrating for the most part.

[Hesperus]

Sterling now makes it 2 nil. Glad to see both young wingers getting a goal. Need to keep sensible now

[Hesperus]

Sterling with a second to make it 3 nil. We're all over them this half.

[Hesperus]

Aguero and Delph made it 5 nil. Poor first half but excellent in the second half.

Unfortunately Chelsea, Spuds and Shited also all won.

[KunDB]

Loving our football and just 1 to go for Aguero.

[gavin]

Same old really. Some wonderful football played. But profligate again and still a bit dodgy at the back so still some worries ahead of Chelsea. Happy days though. Great entertainment.

Sane looks on the verge of becoming world class.

[zacc]

must be result of a dare

[Neil Mcnab]

Ordinary and pedestrian in the first half. Noticeable change of tempo second half. Delph does not let us down when he plays. I dont know the stats, but Sterling seems to need a few gilt edged chances to score.

[Paddy]

Leroy Sani; Next hero, great reader of the ball and great technical skill

[Paddy]

Result not in doubt. Clean sheet, we were lucky. Could have done better !!!

[nimrod]

Good goal from Sane but he's been f*cking frustrating for the most part.

 

[gavin]

Sane was fucking brilliant at times yesterday.

[Hesperus]

Yep Sane was brilliant yesterday. He's really young (same as Sterling btw) and they are going to make mistakes, poor decision making etc, at their age it's only to be expected. Just think what they will be like with another couple of years experience!

[zacc]

haha love it we're in Blue heaven at present probably never see this type of footy , players and skill again after all
hard to improve on near enough perfection.
Lets face it those of us who are oldish in the tooth never thought City would be back contending for all competitions in such
a positive, able way.

Sane was fucking brilliant at times yesterday.

That cross for Kuns goal

[KunDB]

Ordinary and pedestrian in the first half. Noticeable change of tempo second half. Delph does not let us down when he plays. I dont know the stats, but Sterling seems to need a few gilt edged chances to score.

I do not need stats I see with my eyes Sterling is no goal machine he is nervy when a chance comes. Brilliant player at times otherwise but not anywhere near clinical when opportunities to score come his way.

[gavin]

His finishing still needs some work but Sterling has done a great job so far for us this season. He's scored critical goals and been very effective and dangerous. He's 22 and hopefully in a few years he will be the finished article and world class but he's more than justifying his place and transfer fee already. I don't think a swap for Sanchez would have been good value for us.

[Ludo]

Sane definitely came ground in the second half but in the first, with the exception of the goal, his decision making was poor.

In fairness to him he wasn't the only one in that first half.

IF Sanchez was 26 it would be a good swap
