City Vs Blackburn Post Match Discussion Thread

[Stoned Rose]

We looked like Champions today. Complete and utter control at all times and on another day could've had 7 or 8. Very early season-esque today.

If utd or spurs put in a performance that good the whole Sky and MOTD panels would actually get their cocks out and spunk on each other.

Pleasing that we can win by having loads of possession just as slickly as we can when we concede most of it a la Porto.

These lads can do everything and most importantly they know how good they are and that they're the best team in the country by a mile. The confidence, self belief and togetherness is simply tremendous.

Not bad for a collection of money grabbing mercenaries :)

We love you city we do :)

Superb post.....normally I am all on edge watching us but just sat back and admired that masterclass. What a team we have.

I am actually starting to believe that we will win this, very odd feeling.

Clichy has better crossing, more through balls, better passing, more key passes and more dribbles. He's better going forward by every single metric.

Simple question- who has more assists? Cause I haven't seen one player get on the end of a Clichy cross all season.

Assists rely on two people, the stat you are looking for is cross completion, and Clichy's is better.

Cross completion is more important than assists?! What are you an Arsenal fan?! Clichy is more solid and reliable, but Kolarov is clearly better going forward and is an asset for set pieces. If Clichy had a better left foot he would be taking set pieces, but he doesn't.

Yaya was at his best today , MOTM , but a great alround performance by city, and even then subs were great

Superb game today. Controlled it right from kick off.

Hmm...

Not sure why the "82% Possession" thread has merged. The question was a legitimate one asking whether it was a Prem record.

No mention of Blackburn in it (although they were the opponents, of course).

No sense in the merger!?!?

i have a hard time believing blackburn had 18% possession

Baloooooooooo. Will finish 3rd highest scorer in Europe next year if Mancini plays his as first choice.
