wtf are you talking about..takes it to the next level, that's 1980s football, if that's the football you want I suggest you watch the Watford v palace game, there is no way that is going to happen until pep leaves, maybe you would prefer big fat Sam as the manager. ?

It's also quite apt that you highlighted the point in red.

Is Yaya Touré still in with a shout of being the greatest City player of all time?

I love Silva, but...

I like the look of this new 42....... a bit of a prospect.

Thank you Yaya,utterly peerless. We are privileged to have witnessed the African King.

Keep it going young man.....legendary status becons. Deservedly.

That's some pretty hardcore spin. Yeh, we weren't shit in the beaten-at-home-by-Bury sense of the word, but for 70 minutes we were pretty fucking poor considering the talent at our disposal. Slow, endless recycling of the ball backwards, and creating next to nothing going forward, and the usual difficulty dealing with corners/crosses and long high punts downfield. 2nd half was better in terms of the additional space we created by drawing them on to us, but until the penalty I couldn't see us scoring any more than I could them

Sign of a good team that plays mediocre but gets the 3 pts pundits used to say about the rags and arsenal and Chelsea as they picked up title after title way back. They've slightly changed their approach now and just call us lucky .

Yup, and pleasingly we've won ugly 3 or 4 times now this season. A good habit to have. I long for a big bully of a centre half though, just to stop the opposition building any kind of momentum and to allow us to keep the squeeze on at the other end.
 
Don't know how nolito gets look in to be honest he just isnt good enough much prefer Navas . We looked much better when kelechi came on. We need aguero back in making the runs to stretch teams.also think we need another midfielder in the window
 
Very happy with that. 3-0 away from home and a clean sheet despite not being at full strength and losing Stones early. It's still some way-off from where we want to be, but nevertheless we have much to appreciate and even more to look forward to. Well done City!

We are a little bit lightweight at times but Toure being back helps and we have plenty of height for set pieces. Defence have been much better recently. I only thought Nolito was a bit off today. All the rest were ok to good. Toure MOM for me for his control closely followed by De Bruyne.

what gets on my tits was the commentary said you have to be complimentary for the way hull played, they didn't play ,we played kept our rhythm passed and moved them all over the pitch first half ,they had a go in the first 10 mins of the 2nd half but once we took control again we saw them off. Brilliant all round display.

I think it was Jamie 'ever so' Catflapp, who said that Hull didn't deserve that result.

Wrong.

They might not have deserved the score line - and that's open to debate - but they certainly deserved to lose.

Toure gives us so much 'presence' in that engine room. He was MotM for me against Arsenal and he was MotM again today

Same here. I believe we have the arsenal disease of wanting to walk it in.

I am hoping pep takes it to the next level and starts forcing defensive errors by constantly pumping it into the box where anything could happen. But currently we piss around the area until we lose the ball

That's a problem with a specific solution...Gabriel Jesus.

Yeah, I mean, six goals to none? Nolito over Navas no question.

Quality last 20 mins. Thankfully Sagna was on the line for the inevitable Bravo cockup.

What an idiotic statement.

Claudio had no choice, but to come out for that ball, and Bacary, being the experienced professional that he is, saw the danger and covered the goal line.

It's called teamwork.
