We made that a bit more nervy than it had to be. very good performance until we went 2 up and then we got sloppy again just passing it around in defence until Kompanymisplaced a pass which ultimately lead to the free kick they scored from. I'd much rather see the game out by passing it around outside their penalty box rather than doing it in our own half which invites the opposition forward.

Very good result though and an excellent performance in the main. The same scoreline on Wednesday would do nicely.

It was Jesus who gave away cheap ball with an uneccesary attempted flick that led to their free-kick for the goal.

I get he is hungry but needs to take a leaf out of Raheem's book and play calmer in the head.

De Bruyne and Laporte were my stand-outs.

Good spot mate.

I'd be bollocking Bernardo for what he did in the wall though tbh.

Surely you have the INHS !

Not if you're working, no. You'll get the treatment free, but you pay for the bed. Unless you have health insurance .Which I don't!

Was Sane's assist an intended pass to Sterling ?

No his intention was to pass to their defender .

I thought we were brilliant, one of our best performances in weeks. Hard to pick any one player for MOTM. KDB, Gundo, Raheem, Laporte all great. Mendy, Sane, Komps, Walker all very, very good. Eddie did what he had to do. Some people think he was at fault for their goal but the wall didn’t do it’s job, mainly because Bernie was manhandled out of the way by Benteke. Merlin did well but I thought he wasteful on quite a few occasions. Sergio just doesn’t look fit to me but I thought Gabby looked really sharp when he came on.

We’ve done what we need to do. If we keep winning there’s nothing the Dippers can do to catch us. Having said that, I’m hoping for a big Chelsea performance today.

Absolutely

Robbie Earle and Kyle Martino on NBCSN again praising City not just for their skill, also for how determined they are. Kompany's fist-pump celebration to the fans at the end summed it up nicely.

 

[wattle]

Walker was excellent against Zaha and Komps n Eric bossed Benteke. Great performance all round on to the next game boys. Believe in ourselves

As well as Laporte. Is there a better passing cb in the world?

Good work Mani.

I try my best ;)

Solid performance against a difficult opponent would be too much to expect Chelsea not to lose again at Anfield though.

Chumps League secured for another season.

Well played well supported today we hope we can win our last 5 as big an order as that is.
