1st goal: Great play from Silva in midfield leaving 2 for dead, and runs forward to edge of penalty box playing in AJ on the right who cuts inside, and shoots for the far post. keeper saves but the ball rebounds for Dzeko to hit home

2nd goal: Counted 14 passes starting with good work from Clichy at left back with Dzeko central to much of the move, and the killer ball played from AJ. A perfectly weighted through ball for Micah to find another perfectly weighted first time cross and Kun to tap home on the far post. A great move with the players retaining the ball under pressure and biding their time until the moment came. One and two touches mostly. A picture book goal from the training ground. 1 touch and 2 touch moving the ball at pace is what can break down a defence

3rd goal: Confident play from Dzeko in midfield trying to set up Aguero. Doesn't quite come off, but the ball breaks to Aguero in midfield and he juggles the ball twice before playing it back into the area for Silva to hit first time into the roof of the net making it impossible for a defender to block it on the line

4th goal: A bit of midfield interplay between Barry and Toure and then the ball reaches Aguero 25 yards out. The defenders instantly backs off, and Aguero takes two touches before unleashing a dipping strike direct into the corner of the goal. A very good keeper beaten by a combination of surprise and the wicked dip on the ball. Literally stunning goal.

I usually prefer team goals, but that 4th goal is my favourite.

I'd also like to say what a great game Dzeko had. He was central to nearly everything good that we did. He is a totally unselfish player who will become very popular with fans and team mates
 
3rd one. the swansea defence thought that was out already, and I think the keeper did aswell. aguero just calmly flicks it over himself to silva though. pew.
 
The 4th. It's not just the technique of the strike, but also the message that ws behind it. "Kun has arrived!"

But the 2nd and 3rd were fantastic goals too, with Dzeko playing a key role in both. Dzeko was immense last night.
 
Has to be the 2nd due to the build up play, if the rags had scored that we'd already have our goal of the season.
 
Third for me. Showed the kind of confidence, verging on over-confidence but totally backed up by pure desire and ability, from first Dzeko then Aguero, and top finish from Silva.

Aside from scoring from a set piece, we pretty much covered a good range of ways to score last night. Dzeko's was right place right time, second was great movement, clever work by Micah and good cross and then speed by Aguero on the far post, third was as described above and fourth was the kind of goal that can win us those stalemates.
 
the 1st one he scored clearly that shows the vulture in him,rushing in the box to meet the cross,the 2nd he scored they dont go in everyweek but still fine strike
 
1st because it was relieving. It was tense at 0-0, no atmsophere, game looking like a 'typical City' game.

Second because it was Agüeros first.

This because it was fucking unbelievable, something like you've never seen before.

Fourth because it was a great strike. Plus rubbed it in the faces of those who leave early. Look what you guys miss!


Loved every goal equally! Ü
 
First goal was my favourite last night because Dzeko played very well and worked his nackers off. He took it well too, the amount of times that strikers miss those because the ball arrives quickly to their feet is unreal.

The fourth was just simply sublime.

David Silva had his best game for us lat night imo and was unlucky not to get a hat trick
 
the first because it felt so fuking good - what with the relief and all.

missed the last by about 15 seconds litterally, just walked out to catch my transport. gutted. allways like to stay to end, the one time i walk out early and only by 1 minute from time i miss a cracker from our new striker.
 
both 3rd+4th

Aguero chipping it , then overhead kick to Silva was amazing then two will link up together very easy

but Aguero solo goal was a.m.a.z.i.n.g + even non city fans were like WOAH did you see that?!?

The third, I love the fact he still chased the ball to the line. Not a lot of players would go for that. Great finish too, not easy when the ball bounces where it did..
Good that Silva got a goal. He was a bit unlucky to hit the bar in the 1st half and see the keeper make a save. Silva needs to score more goals. That's all that's missing

I am so looking forward to seeing Silva and aguero together. Their movement and control of the football puts them up there with the very best. When we're confident and we've just scored, the players are buzzing and the passing is 1st time and quick. But we need to improve when we're under pressure and it's 0-0. Sometimes we're too reliant on Silva to make it happen, or on Toure to barge a way through.
