To all the plumbers , electricians, engineers, waiters and architects etc who spout shite on the pre match thread every week telling us how bad a team our ' football manager' has picked for the game .... Do us a favour , don't give up your day job! .... You know nowt.

A week really is a long time in football. I was laughed at for saying we could win 3/3 this week. So happy.

Yes, because it's all about you isn't it?!

We're back, that win vs Bayern might be turning point.

My feelings exactly

The win against Swansea is being overlooked a bit IMO, coming from behind to win in a really hard fought game after a string of shit results and an international break was what has kickstarted us.

Chuffed as a butty with that performance today, Yaya looked quality (apart from his fuck up for the Mangala sending off), looks like the big fella is up to speed now.

Brilliant, best performance so far & a clean sheet!

I still want to see more from Nasri & Navas though, too inconsistent. Mangala is definitely improving and I don't blame him at all for that second yellow (Yaya's fault for dallying on the ball so close to his box)

Serg having an unlucky day yet still sets up two goals and we win 3-0, could have been 4/5 to be honest.

We're back. Justice served after an awful refereeing display. So proud of the lads for putting in a performance worthy of their names. They fought until the last minute, never let their heads drop despite some shocking decisions, and even continued to show their dominance after going a man down. This was City back to their best and they'll need to be with the schedule we've got coming up. The Kompany injury/Mangala suspension leaves us in a bit of trouble but if we can carry on attacking like this then we'll outscore teams just like last season. I'd love us to extend Lamps' loan and am well happy for Clichy too, he took plenty of stick recently and some of it was deserved, but he played brilliantly today.

Brilliant performance - really showed togetherness and spirit, another 3 from aguero - we're such a one man team. Not a twitter yoof, but please can anyone who is please give those absolute cunts of journalists that were on sky this morning hell

Superb performance. Shame Aguero didn't get on the scoresheet. Yaya, fernandinho were excellent.

Yaya was at fault for the situation where Mangala got his second yellow.

His punishment should be to play at centre half on Weds, unless Kompany was a precaution.

He did play well other than that though.

Let's concentrate on the negatives shall we

superb away performance, well and truly pricked their balloon. Clichy was superb, whole defence solid and as per my previous earlier prediction, it hasn't taken Mangala long to get his first sending off.
That caps off a great week with 3 good wins and some real fight shown by the blues. Ludicrous non-penalty in the 1st half luckily didn't affect the result.
We've had some tough games even against teams who normally wouldn't be....we've played West Ham away when they were bloody 4th and in form, Swansea when they were 5th and southampton away when they were 2nd. It will be nice to play some teams who are genuinely down at the bottom end.

Result is the most important thing but was also a really good performance against a team in good form.
