Jack Rodwell’s finest moment for City in that 4-4 United Everton game

And then we went to Wolves later same day ( or was it wba?) and won under a lot of pressure.Gareth Barry absolutely outstanding,a real professional performance by the whole team.

The home game with utd was preceded by fergies taking his squad away to the Welsh countryside for some team bonding exercise..a move heralded by the press as a mangerial master class..brilliant way to relieve the pressure..cue Chris Smalling opeming his big mouth and annoucing from Wales " City will crack"....
Result ?
The most comprehensive of 1nil wins for City,no shots on target from utd,Mancini showing Fergie on the touchline who,exactly,was boss and a thundering Vincent Kompany header for the winner from a corner right below us in The South stand.

On reflection utd should have sorted out their man marking at corners instead of chasing sheep around the valleys...their defensive organisation at that corner was a shambles.

Then came the nerve wracking trip to St James Park....

Great news that big Erl’s withdrawn from
Norway’s games, he’ll be fresh as a daisy for this one

 

[Tony - MCFC]

Looking forward to this. Haaland rested : )

Fully rest of the squad comes back fine.

It was Wolves, definitely... Clichy banana ball to Sergio for the opener.

As long as Erling is 'resting' that groin injury and isnt actually injured and end up missing the red scouse scum match!

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

International break was obviously meant to break the momentum, but we are better than them and i expect a win, with or without the Viking.

 

[SkyBlueSW19]

Any of our matches now, where the game is won, perhaps with a 3 goal lead and 15 minutes to go, has to be a relentless drive to get a fourth and fifth. I think we'll win the league but I've got a feeling it will go down to GD.

 

[Withnail]

Tough game against a Dipper side which will no doubt be fired up and keen to put one over us. Really looking forward to this one and I just hope our lads come back from the international break injury free. Time to give Arsenal a gentle reminder that they haven't won anything yet.

Ridiculous paranoia but I can't help the feeling Bingo will rally his rabble to bust a gut against us yet have an okay performance against the Gunners. Lets hope they're desperate for points when they play them.

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

While it's fantastic news erling is rested, let's hope every single one of the others come back fit and fine
