Swansea V City post match thread

Lucky win bit will take any day. It could have gone either way at 1-1, and Silva messing about in his own Penalty Area just before they scored was very frustrating.

There were too many risk taken at the back then the ball just launched anyway. Fabianski was very odd for the third, "look at all this space, shoot into it".
You view of the Sterling goal is at odds with every report I have seen and heard. Indeed even the much maligned Danny Mills was raving about it ;-)
 
Not our best first half performance, but the genius that is Josep Guardiola switched KdB and Merlin at half time and the players seemed to find another gear and Swansea had no answer.

Definite penalty. If Mick McManus had done that to Les Kellet in the '70s, it would have been hailed as a great forearm smash. FWIW, John Cross on 606 thought it was a penalty.

Totally agree. It isn't the easiest thing in the world for a 'keeper to get his bearings with a player like Sterling bearing down on him and Kun in the middle unmarked. He didn't even give the 'keeper the eyes, just bamboozled the defender and passed it in the near post.

Lol, I remember them! If Aguero had done that it would've been trial by Sky and a 3 match ban.. Oh wait!!!!
 
Thankful for the 3 points but Pep seemed to want to shove all the attacking players into the pitch and for the first half didn't seem to be working

The keeper was tight to his left post initially even though Sterling was to his right, the keeper did move right eventually but still left a big gap.

The finish had similarities to the one versus Hart in the 3-2 2013/14.
