City v Chelsea (fa cup. 5 th round ) post match thread

[kippax81]

Superb performance by every single one of the lads tonight. A special mention has to go to Clichy, Dzeko, Lescott, and in particular Garcia. All have come in for a bit of stick this season but all of them were outstanding.

Also a mention for the manager, who got his tactics spot on. What impressed me the most was how the whole team didn't let them have any time on the ball. That was how to play the pressing game that MP has wanted to implement from day 1, and tonight it all came together. It was also nice to see the swagger, and dare I say arrogance, return when we were in possession as well.

Bring on Barca.

Oh, and FUCK OFF MAUREEN. You were owned tonight by a better coach and manager.

impressed with Garcia, his best game so far in City's shirt. Milner made Hazard looks like ordinary, love his work rate. everyone played well today, hopefully we will have full squad until the end of the season.

Garcia was indeed great, as well as Lescott. I think all the players played well, but I am particularly glad about Garcia and Lescott who don't normally receive praise.

What makes the performance even more impressive is that it was against Chelsea who we've had tough time until now.

That was as comprehensive a beating as we've given any team this season we've proved our mental fortitude and with our best players looking sharp and our injured getting back to full fitness things are looking good bring on Barca ................. C'MON !!!!!!!

Think the Barca game has come two weeks too early if I'm honest

Brilliant game. Total domination. 2-0 doesn't tell the story. Silva MOTM but to be fair an argument could be made for more than half the team. Not a below 8 out of 10 performance in the lineup. MP got his tactics spot on. Going with 1 striker and the extra man in midfield. Garcia was very good. Lescott was excellent. Good to see him play well would like to see him vs Barca for MD. Clichy seems to be back to his good form that had been missing for the better part of a year. Well done.

Well, thats fucked the Sunday Supplement up, for sure.

How rude of us

many positives from today, but for me the most encouraging was the bayern-away like reaction to a bad performance. we DONT make the same mistake twice against you!

One of the most complete performances I've seen from us in many a year, from front to back we were superb and made Chelsea look shite.

Well done blues, a great way to warm up for Barca.

I know it is lazy of me but these are my sentiments exactly.
