I want you (she's so heavy)

Kev outstanding. Good showings from Akanji, Walker and the Meat Shield

To be fair, that’s not quite what she said. She described winning anything other than the lot as ‘failure’, based on her perception of City’s self desire to win all 3 trophies, not because winning the PL or FA Cup in isolation constituted actual failure

Simon Hattenstone. Hewn from the same rock that gave us Colin Schindler. Lots of previous for handwringing. Would rather we were shit and poor and everyone’s 2nd favourite team, than sweeping all before us with ‘oil money’ and loathed by all and sundry…….

Grealish. The only attacking player who was a handful for us all night. Just edging out Dias and Eddie

It’s Jordan and it’s The Mail, so there won’t be a sincere word in the entire piece. Clickbait in its purest form, designed to get all the armchair rags and dippers a-frothin’ and a-foamin’ about ‘cheating’. Don’t dignify it, or him, by responding….ever

Exactly. I took the opportunity yesterday to have a quick look through the Der Spiegel emails again, and, even given that we won at CAS, I'd forgotten how completely damning some of them appear. Unless City's evidence is utterly irrefutable - and we're certainly giving off confident vibes in...

Did they sit on it and do nothing, or did City frustrate the process?

If my Aunt Freda had bollocks she’d be my Uncle Fred. It’s a bloke off Twitter. Well meaning or not, pay it no heed……

From what I can gather he glossed over the Beatles pretty quickly altogether in the book. Must confess I've never read it mind. I don't think they reconciled before Lennon died either did they?

George Harrison - I me mine

Great first hour. Fucking diabolical last half hour. Complacent beyond belief. If Phillips is still here next season, it’ll be a minor miracle

Ha ha, the first one I was fine with!

I've found the title chases to be the more stressful. Very simple reason. We've gone head to head with Liverpool (twice), United and Arsenal, 3 of the media's biggest darlings, with all the spew-inducing, one-sided, pro-red guff you'd expect, on top of all the normal stressors. The run-in...

I don't think there's another manager in world football I dislike more than Klopp. Horrible creature. The same nasty, contrived 'routine' at press conference after press conference. Feigning incredulity at being asked questions about transfer targets and budgets, trying to belittle the...

I celebrated Ya Ya’s goal harder if I’m being honest. There was so much stress leading up to Sergio’s that my reaction to it was as much born of relief as anything else. I think I probably celebrated Nasri’s goal against Sunderland at Wembley more wildly than Sergio’s as well. King of them all...

Two seasons in a row he's changed the way we play, on the hoof, DD, to accommodate the changing skillsets of the players at his disposal and to shore up any weaknesses. Last year, the whole inverted fullback thing and slowing our attacks down to mitigate against losing the ball in transition and...

Given Levy's recent outburst about never letting anyone go to either of the Manchester clubs ever again, if Vinny does harbour ambitions of becoming City manager one day, then he'd be best off giving Spurs a very wide berth

Ha ha, “if that’s true”?!! I must say, it would be most unusual for the German equivalent of the Daily Star to print some made up bollocks purely in order to blow smoke up the arses of its favourite club’s supporters. Oh wait, hang on a mo….. Same goes for the assortment of rags down at Media...

The episode with the knee capping was both brilliant and brutal
