Not great second half but a good win against a stubborn well organised side

Great to see City accumulating points
POSITIVES? Barry, Kompany,Petrov, Carlos,BellamyDe Jong and Shay
NEGATIVES Sadly Robbie's abysmal form continues-at least Roberto has learnt that Bellers must stay in ahead of him.

Good game City!! Liked Mancini wasn't afraid to make formation changes or substitutions.

Thought are defense looked much more focused and determined...Shay even came out for crosses as well..!!!
Nice all round performance with shades of us taking the foot of the pedal as in the past a bit but Macini mixed it up in midfield...kept are momentum going
No one really stood out over anyone else ( well perhaps Barry and De Jong) ...we actually looked like a team working for each other.
Come on Lads for the semi v rags
PS Robbie, is he going thru a crisis of indentity???

But in all seriousness why is petrov starting, is swp injured? Because this guys god awful. He has no right foot, can't cross a decent ball in and is horrible from corners. The only thing this guy did right was be in the right place in the right time. Bellers is a far better player and should have started.
Continuing, I liked the way Mancini placed robbi I thought that was the right spot for him, although he did play bad I think given time he will improve. Him and Ireland got pushed off the ball extremely easy.
Anyways that was my outlook on the game, defence played well today and a special mension to Barry aswell who played great.
Sorry about spelling, wore this on my phone
Petrov can't cross a decent ball in? I'm sorry but I can't agree with that, Petrov is a top class crosser of the ball. Especially if you bring SWP into the comparison.

He did a good job after they switched him over.

Ireland was good today, not perfect, but he buzzed about nicely and made a few very good things happen.
