You missed Dzeko, he played well.

Dowd .....chavs best player in first half didn't have the same impact in the second.

The difference tonight was Silva had his boots on.. bossed it..

'Pellegrini Masterclass'.

Suck my balls Jose

Good win, and ignore any pro-Chelsea/Mourinho media spin that will attempt to say soemthing like, "oh, now City have all these meaningless games and Chelsea can concentrate".

Bullshit.

Number one, you KNOW Jose wanted to win this game. What happened to resting half his team?

Number two, you have the squad to handle the fixtures.

Number three, a winning culture is not convenient. It's inconvenient and takes work. This will sound condenscending but I mean it with respect---you are not yet at the stage where you should be throwing away competitions. Why not build momentum? Why not work on developing that aura of winners mentality?

Number four, your fans in with a chance of another trip to Wembley.

What a confidence boost going into Tuesday's game. Great to see Nasri back. He loves it against Chelsea!

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Shame Nasri and Silva were only on the pitch together for 5 minutes. But what a 5 minutes.

So given we won by twice as many goals, was that twice the tactical masterclass by Pellegrini?

Fuck what I would have given for Fern, Aguero and Nasri in that league match. We'd have dicked them like we did everyone else.

Can we get a little love for Javi Garcia! We looked a different team with him in the middle.

In a good way.

Excellent performance.

Looked a different team with only 1 out and out forward and the extra body in midfield along with a more solid defender like Lescott. Shows a slightly more conservative approach can be more effective at times.
