Swans v City

[93:2012]

Starters

Hart, Zabaleta, Demichelis, Mangala, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Milner, Toure, Lampard, Silva, Aguero

Subs

Caballero, Kompany, Clichy, Jovetic, Dzeko, Navas, Bony

Come on City lets have another good win 'Pride in battle' to end the season and put to bed City finishing above the RAGS.

Finally some stability and no meaningless pointless rotation, shame it did not come earlier.

Big rest for VK, which is what he needs to help him recuperate and refocus for next season.

[gavin]

I'd like to have seen Bony start but still it looks a decent enough side to win. Let's stuff the Jack bastards.

[KunDB]

Bony bound to be well motivated against his old club. Second half appearance surely guaranteed.

A draw will be enough for us to avoid a dreaded pointless meaningless CL qualifying round, we want to leave  for the RAGS the honour of cutting short their pre-season for that.

[Swiss]

Missing out in centre mid again!

[KunDB]

Is our plan today pass the ball to Kolarov atleft back and he boots the ball up field in a punt hoping to find little aguero?

[KunDB]

Great save Joe. Managala 

[Swiss]

Feckin hell! I thought Mangala had played well recently...

[KunDB]

City upped tempo and goal was coming good job Yaya, Happy Birthday.

[KunDB]

From defending a corner to sweeping in a great goal, City at their best. Well done Milner.

[Swiss]

When some says long ball is shit, show them that!

Shame we conceded at the death but I have to say, Swansea are winning the midfield battle.

[gavin]

Poor start but we came good, shame about the Swansea goal but he took it very well. Great that we came straight back at them and could have scored again right away. Hopefully second half we can push on again and bury em.

[KunDB]

Boy have we been unlucky this second half should have had game buried now 2 2

[ebm1991]

Silva is ourstanding!!

[gavin]

The second goal was too easy for Swansea. It was a good take and finish but we shouldn't be allowing them to score from a long ball like that. It is poor to concede a two goal lead. Forgiveable to concede one like their first but the second is too much. We've had to score three away from home to win (hopefully) again.

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Its been a great game though!

[gavin]

Could have conceded another like the second then. Absolutely disgraceful at the back whether it's Vinny, Demi or Mangala responsible it's not good enough. Yes, a good game but unfortunately because City can't defend from simple long balls.

[Swiss]

A finish fro Bony at the end there to kill the game.

[KunDB]

Could have conceded another like the second then. Absolutely disgraceful at the back whether it's Vinny, Demi or Mangala responsible it's not good enough. Yes, a good game but unfortunately because City can't defend from simple long balls.

I was screaming one man to mark against long ball crosses and we nearly get caught a second time.

We also left a Swansea attacker have a free header 4 yards out centre of our box from a corner.

Both of these after we had strengthened our defence bringing VK on.

Unbelievable, we deserved overall to win but defensively we got lucky to not concede a third and maybe fourth.

[KunDB]

Joe had a screamer of a game today.

Silva world class and never stops running, working and creating.

Yaya was Yaya+ today with two important goals.

Aguero was lacking touch from the start today and kept giving the ball away, so so unlike him.

Fernandinho was a sending off waiting to happen thank God he was subbed before being red carded.

Man Utd put to bed for this season and with a bit of good fortune so will second spot be later on today.

[gavin]

It is great to watch but at the same time infuriating. Does anyone really think Pelle can organise a defence?
