What was walker trying to do here..

It's clear what he was trying to do. He wanted to head the ball away but slipped and could not jump.

Most important win of the season for me today. My grandad died this morning, a big blue from Ardwick who brought me up well.

Played City knew you wudnt let us down..

He’ll watch us collect the title from the best seat “up there”. Best wishes to you and your family, mate.

Pep on Kompany's injury: "I don’t know. Unfortunately he’s injured again. Like in the last three years and we'll have to see how long it is."

Scrape victory? 78% possession, 18 shots to 5??

Scrape a victory? FFS!! Apart from Shelby’s hit & hope effort from the kick off, Eddy didn’t have a shot of note to save all night

Unfortunately we’ll have dips in our performances but what matters is we got through it and saw out the win. Some comments here are over the top.

Sterling MOTM closely followed by Otamendi.
Sterling was top class today, took his goal well and some of his dribbling was unreal. Confused him for Neymar a couple of times :)

Otamendi’s clearance was as good as a goal. Flawless in defense once again and looks a threat at set pieces.

Can’t understand the Jesus criticism, his first touch and link up play was great, should of had an assist for De Bruyne. He needs to learn to stay onside more often though.

Aguero played well. Was unlucky not to score. Didn’t have the easiest of chances tonight. Could of done better but it’s not like he was missing sitters.

Walker could of cost us a goal but other that one incident wasn’t as bad as many say here. Not his best game but he has had worse for us in the CL.

Shame Kompany got injured. Can’t understand how he often gets injured in the first minutes, quite strange. Hopefully we can manage to buy a CB in January. I know he wants to go to the WC but with his fitness, I’m not sure he is even worth a place to be brutally honest.

Ederson’s distribution was something else. Loved his diving gesture towards Gayle after his booking.

Good post

Are you high?

Hahaha

Are you high?

No but I was very high in the ground!!

I take it you disagree? When did we play worse?

And I’m not having a go at the team. We’ll have games like that. I’m chuffed to bits we had the resilience to come through and still win
