Amazing what a difference it makes between a draw and a win. A win and everyone would be praising the commitment and effort levels, moaning perhaps why it had not been there all season. Fans would have stayed for Pellegrini thinking top 4 was much closer. I did not enjoy seeing Pellegrini...

City out of top 4 and a Champions League Final against Bayern. THEN what does Pep do. (Champions League place for winner remember)

Diego Simeone to Chelsea has been agreed on a £9.28m contract. News breaking all over now.

Swansea (A) Chelsea (H) Everton (A) Watford (H)

Confirmed signing for Liverpool on BBC's Twitter subject to a medical.

Anyone else think Dzeko might get a game? Surely his last for the club and would be a good gesture to dub him off in the 70/80th. So I predict a 4-4-2.

Most realistic side and manager at the helm from how things are shaping up. Clyne Kompany Mangala Kurzawa Pogba Fernandinho Sterling Silva Aguero Bony

City 0-1 Stoke Showed all of City's problems to come yet nothing was done. To lose a home game that early on in the season, and as champions, to Stoke City - speaks for itself, really. The Arsenal-Bayern-Chelsea fixture list after that break showed how the season was gonna go IMO.

Almost 32 now, Yaya cannot be placed in a two man Central midfield anymore. He needs to be up in front of two mobile Central midfielders for him to have any necessary impact anymore. His legs have certainly regressed, you could see it when City had a counter on and he had loads of space to start...

Most realistic view that I can see: Out: Guidetti (Free) Richards (Free) Negredo (£25m) Kolarov (£7m) Jovetic (£18m) Nasri (£20m) Dzeko (£20m) Yaya Toure (£25m) Total Inflow from player sales: £115m In: Kurzawa (£15m) - for Kolorov Lacazette (£25m) - for Jovetic Kevin De Bruyne (£30m) - for...

I've said it once and Ill say it again: City will never advance to where they want to be whilst playing Edin Dzeko. He just doesn't quite fit. He scores goals that I think many strikers would do given the chances he gets. His goals have won titles yes, but when has he really PULLED City...

I think a lot of City fans forget how they all felt about the Fernando signing. For most, this was the signing that would allow City some leverage and control in the big games, but ONLY if Fernando played alongside Fernandihno with Toure ahead of them. A lot of people have forgot about this and...

The horrible thought is that if City were managed by Mourinho, we'd have won the league far more easily last year and be ahead this year. So what would City fans rather have? Because I think Pellegrini is showing what I initially thought of him - he is VERY Wenger-esque tactically. However, when...

Re: so how long is silva out? Blame the manager if he's nursing an injury yes but not when he's fit and wanting to win the game with a strong squad. What does he do? Wait til the Derby then play Silva, only for him to get randomly injured in that game? Not his fault.

I think you need - In: Paul Pogba £40m (with Nastasic) Marco Reus £25m Ross Barkley £30-35m Bony £15-20m Rodriguez £15m Out (don't hate): Dzeko £20m Guidetti £5-10m Navas £12m Negredo £25m Roughly £120m IN Roughly £67m total OUT You could add Yaya but I think City will want to keep him for...

Nuihu is the giant you're speaking about and he's an absolute animal. Held up play pretty well tonight against Mangala, too.

Wednesday fan here who couldn't get away stand tickets so bought some in the East Stand. My mate wants me to sort his on the site, but I looked this morning and it's not on there. Is that the usual policy? Surely he can just collect there because there was still a couple of seats when I looked.

I don't think people realise just how important it is to not only beat Chelsea on Sunday but also beat them to the title and every other title this year. Quite a task indeed but if Mourinho finishes trophy less again this season then I think he'll be gone. And he is without doubt THE biggest...

Re: Yaya? The big problem with Yaya Toure is the fact that he's absolutely world class and yet a very VERY 50/50 player. My example of this is the Aston Villa game. Whilst incredibly impressive, what other player you know of strolls through a game with very low intensity and then looks like a...

It was actually a very good performance away to a top team. Milner very good. Silva very good in those tight spaces. Aguero lively and looking fit. Navas dangerous. Kompany a huge presence. Arsenal away is always difficult but this was a much better performance than last season away and in the...
