    Fulham (A) Post Match Thread

    A sloppy and frustrating start to the game - attributed to the changes and Fulham's press - but eventually some control comes; and space begins to emerge, particularly down the right. A tough watch for the remainder of the first half; with hope there's light at the end of this particular tunnel...

    Southampton (H) | Post-Match Thread

    A dreary start to the game is over after fourteen minutes with a wonderful pass by Laporte; chest control by Foden and some predatory instincts from de Bruyne. With a 1-0 lead, the control and calm which was missing from the start and from most of Sunday's game against United shows its face...

    Man of the Match United PL (H)

    Saved City's "bacon" a few times in the first half and broke the lines with some good runs; second half not as slick but I'll still give my Man of the Match to John Stones. Nice cameo from Phil Foden and with a bit more poise; he could have been a "hero". Alas, it wasn't meant to be.

    United (H) Post Match Thread

    An uncharacteristic start to the first half and a surprise goal to our much-loved visitors. After the thirteen minute mark, Pep Guardiola's well-oiled machine slipped into gear and it was now City's turn to dominate; and dominate they did. To such an extent, United bizarrely, began wasting time...

    West Ham (H) Post Match Thread

    Job done. Three points against a well organised and hard working West Ham team that are a credit to David Moyes: a manager that looked to all and sundry "finished" after the poisoned chalice known as the Manchester United manager's job. Thirteen point lead and with tough games for United [a new...

    Man of the Match West Ham PL (H)

    Missed the first half after a relaxed and sun filled morning at Marie Louise Gardens. Second half, not much quality from either side yet one thing stands out: the pass from Mahrez to Stones an another three points. So well done Riyad Karim Mahrez: the man with a beautiful left foot; second only...

    Borussia Monchengladbach (a) Post Match Thread

    Respect to Monchengaldbach. The defence was brave in possession and blocks; dangerous on the counter-attacks and made City work hard for any space. Work hard they did and after half an hour; the lead created by two of Portugal's neo golden generation. Pretty much the same in the second half...

    Man of the Match Borussia M'gladbach CL Rd of 16 (N)

    First half my Man of the Match was Gabriel Jesus. Something has changed in him in the last few games so I looked for what it was that has made the difference. Found an article called "Building The Perfect Striker" and they highlighted six qualities: physique, tenacity, striking instincts...

    Arsenal (A) Post Match thread

    Eighteenth win on the row; thirteenth in the Premier League; another clean sheet and a ten point gap at the top of the Premier League [nineteen in front of those "chancers"called LiVARrpool]. Strange game though. Reminds me of that game in the World Cup where both teams agreed on the draw to...

    Man of the Match Everton PL (A)

    Mightily impressed by Gabriel Jesus in the first half and the last couple of games. He seems more aggressive: allied with his pace and skill; he's becoming a handful and there's much more to come from the young man. But, there's this winger who plays for City. A first touch to and shimmy to die...

    Everton (A) Post Match Thread

    That was "one hell of a game". From the outset, City struggled because of Ancelotti's tactics. A wonderful skill bit of skill from Mahrez created the opportunity for the first goal. Alas,the lead didn't last very long. 1-1 at the end of the first half and much respect to Everton for one of...

    Man of the Match Tottenham Hotspur PL (H)

    I was leaning towards the two Portuguese gentleman - Bernardo and Cancelo - especially after the first half but: my Man of the Match goes to another Portuguese speaker, Ederson de Moraes: for a pass, an assist and a smile that made me smile. Bravo young man. PS. Could have an assist and a goal...

    Man of the Match Swansea City FA Cup Rd 5 (A)

    The much yet unfairly maligned Benjamin Mendy started the game well - even playing centre-forward on occasions - and was consistent throughout. Gabriel Jesus showed his Brazilian heritage with a windefully executed piece of control and finish and yet my Man of the Match is Rodrigo Hernández...

    Man of the Match Liverpool PL (A)

    Due to work I didn't concentrate fully on the game yet at 1-0 I was going to nominate Ruben Dias. Allowing for his so-called "mistake" - Salah exaggerated the fall - he's the steel that wins and titles are built upon and so he's my Man of the Match.

    Liverpool (A) Post Match Thread

    Three points at Anfield and an increase in the gap between the champions-elect and the pretenders to the throne : especially those cheating charlatans, Manchester United and Liverpool. More importantly, a huge psychological barrier has been broken profoundly. As an overly critical man: I now...

    Burnley (A) Post Match Thread

    Three points, another clean sheet and still top of the table. Thoroughly enjoyed watching a fine exhibition of "Juego de Posicion" or "positional play" under Pep Guardiola: “Positional Play does not consist of passing the ball horizontally, but something much more difficult: it consists of...
