Lineker [speaking after a shot of Mancini behind a steamed up camera lens]: 'So many goals he's steaming up there, Mancini, but it's all over as a contest after just, well, after just a few minutes as Brian Laws honestly said. It's embarrassing.'
Lawrenson: 'Yeaaah. Errrm, an an it was amazin' - ah mean it's a really good win for Manchester City, an an obviously, ya know, score six goals away et cetera, w', great for them.
Buut... And we've talked long and hard about Burnley, all this season'
(Hansen says something here)
Lawrenson, unperturbed: 'an a, talk a, talk a, ah mean it was aah, absolutely frightenin', an' it just, just, if you're playin' against the front three of Abedayor, Tevez and Bellamy, an you're at home an' your form's not bin particularly good, you've gotta be tight. You've gotta at least go the first twenty minutes and go "Right boys, we don't concede" well I think they lasted twenty seconds in all honesty... and the other problem as well Gary is the' just, they just didn't help themselves Burnley, at all. It, it was so easy...
[Whilst we see a clip of Johnson running through the defence]
This was early on, the run from Johnson, slight deflection, hits a post.
[We see Johnson whip the corner in]
Score from this, straid away. Eight against four, fr' Burnley's point of view, from the corner. Concede.
[Clip]
Try an play the ball, it gets pinched off into midfield, City break, great run from Bellamy, I don't think the ball was meant for him by the way, but he took it, slotted it, er, so that's two nil. An, I mean, basically that was game over anyway.
[Clip]
Then the Beast fails to make the clearance. [it] Comes back with interest. Again good play from, from City, a' mean, the movement was excellent the timing of the passes. Decent finish. Poor, poor goalkeeping frum, frum the Beast again..
[Clip]
and look they're through, an it w's j'st, it was just SO EASY it was frightenin', on this occasion Adebayor couldn't do anything about it. Un, ah, say this was what? Eight, nine, ten minutes? An, look at, spot this fan 'ere an watch what he does in the stripey jumper. [Fan thumps stadium] Owww.
