77 of 88 passes and an assist tonight, sublime.
MotM if Tevez hadn't stolen the show!
Hopefully, if we sign a new winger, it will free Milner up to play more centrally, probably alternating with Yaya.

Hopefully not, Milner seems to really suit the deeper role (i.e. in place of Barry) with the option get forward in support.

Wasn't it Yaya playing deeper tonight? Looked it to me.
Anyway, what I ment was Milner seems to be held back to use as a winger because we are short in that dept (as Mancini won't play SWP), so buying a winger frees him up for the more central role he is best suited to but doesn't get to play.
But wherever he plays, I rate him and like to see him play.

Still looked like Yaya furthest forward to me, difference was Milner joined to attacks more eagerly than Barry.
Another thing I've noticed is that Mancini has decided when playing Milner wide (as happened at Spurs & Stoke for periods) he played him on the right side - which is far better and works against a tired full back.
