One of Ota's best games in a City shirt!! Alot of respect for his game today. On some plays he was marking bigger, stronger players and he still bossed it! Also looked solid with the ball at his feet. Stones and Ota having great start to the season....
 
Well done that man. Stood up when he needed to be counted and played his part in overcoming the long ball brigade. His play acting can still get a bit tiresome though.
 
Threw is head at everything today, there was also a moment in the first half where in the past he would have slid in but stood his ground and sent the player back. Thought he was superb in the 2nd half.
 
Thought he was outstanding today. Pep has certainly improved him and Kolarov who were both fantastic today.
 
When Ota is in this form, there isn't a better defender anywhere in the whole world
 
He has to stay in. Him and Stones, they're the two. Keep them together playing with Bravo as often as possible and watch. It will be better than anything we've ever had, Kompany or no Kompany.
 
I think the real Otamendi is now stepping up under Pep....with Kompany on the way back the competition for two centreback spots is scarily good.
 
Not seen the game yet mate. I agreed to babysit the boys weeks ago without realising it was derby day. Whilst you enjoyed watching us beat the rags I was watching Paw Patrol.

I will archive it the second it gets pre'd (released) on the server mate. He really was very good today, you will enjoy the match, top viewing from our pov :-)
 
He's a phenomenonal ball winner. Makes me nervous at times but great to watch when he's in form.
 
Immense performance today, I'll put the vast improvements in Otamendi, Kolarov, Sterling, etc down to Pep but I can't help thinking they show the Pellegrini of last season in a very poor light.
 
Motm performance. Dealt with everything thrown at him and his passing was spot on. Didn't think he could deliver long balls like that. Crazy how I was writing him off before the season started. Him and Stones are going to be our top defensive pairing and I don't see how Kompany is going to get into Pep's first choice side. Never thought that would be said about Kompany.
