Trautmannesque said:Topic up for debate on Talkshite at the moment is whether or not Sergio is the premier league's greatest ever player. I'm not listening or anything; Darren Gough is as thick as a whale omelette and too painful to listen to. I'm just pointing out that Aguero is being anything but ignored at present. Even the non penalty at Southampton seemed to be Monday's main talking point.
We were on first on MOTD and they were more than complimentary, the debate on talkSPORT right now is whether Kun is the best player ever in the Premier League, there are stories that have quotes like this "It was the sort of night which mocked suggestions that this season’s Premier League is a one-horse race and poured scorn on the notion that Manuel Pellegrini might be under some sort of pressure at the Etihad Stadium. With Sergio Agüero at his ruthless best and Yaya Touré further deconstructing theories that he could be a fading force, Manchester City were irresistible. At times their football, frequently fast and one-touch, was so mesmerising they threatened to pass Gus Poyet’s team off the pitch but the worrying thing for future opponents is that Sunderland scored first and were far from meek."

Every newspaper I pick up and every newspaper website I go to is giving Aguero praise and in the main section of the website, The reason talksport ignore us a little is because they get their majority of callers from London, Birmingham and Liverpool, London covers the London clubs and United/Liverpool, Birmingham covers WBA/Aston Villa and Liverpool covers the two there, City fans don't call up, Mainly because we are rarely in crisis and rarely need our voices heard, Talksport are merely trying to get more calls.
If anything I would argue we're getting more credit for our performances this year than last, Stop being so paranoid for feck sake, Who cares anyway.

Let's just go about our business and keep the wins ticking over.
Not sure too many North West based journo's were keen on making the trip to Sunderland either. Neil Custis was trying to locate a pub in Didsbury that was showing the match.
