I was a bit worried when Cancello looked like he was going to nut Shaw but luckily for Cancello , Shaw's knockers stopped them coming together !

Not sure how long I can happily watch this video on loop for. Stones and Dias embracing like two boyhood friends, not a pair of centre halves who've barely met. We're back
The Telegraph reckons we have a cadre of unhappy players. Can't see them there.

Early season, me and a lot of people said that this side doesn't feel special compared with our title-winning sides.
Watching some of the passion and swagger in the last few weeks, this is certainly starting to feel a bit special

I should be happy (I am) after this win but when Fernandinho stops playing for City, it will be a tough day. No hate on Rodri but Dinho showed us why he’s the best at what he does.
Nonetheless, credit where it’s due...Stones has been like a new signing. Happy for the lad. Probably felt like the world was against him. Always looked rough, always injured. Couldn’t get into the team.
He’s risen from the ashes like a Phoenix. Alongside Dias, that partnership is like a titanium fortress. Collectively good performance.

I have felt for a few months once Pep signed a new contract he decided to build a team from the back - probably against his principles but think he realised with key players coming to the end it was the best way to get a solid defensive base before signing a world class striker - what has been helpful is Stones returning and he looks better than he did when we first signed him.I thought we played really well tonight.
Collectively was a really good team performance
Brother in law who is a Rag,held up his Hands and said the best team won tonight.That was nice to hear.
He feels Rags are only doing well in the Premier League because it has taken us time to get going this season.And feels we are the real Title challengers.
Was not used to hearing this.
On my part i told him they have closed the gap a bit since last season.To be fair they have.They provided a stiff test,they are not a shit side any more.They will be there or there about
This is what made our victory even better.Beating a side with some pretty stellar attacking talent.
Defenses win Titles,Bobbby Manc knew this.
Pep knew we were lacking goals up front,so went a bit pragmatic with our style,by sorting out our defense to compensate.
I am starting to think this approach might pay off.
Great to see the players embracing each other like that.The Telegraph reckons we have a cadre of unhappy players. Can't see them there.
I am trying to keep my Feet on the ground.
It is hard though......reason being,when you see that kind of team bonding you start getting giddy.
Even Pep looks to have his Mojo back.
He has that sparkle back in his Eye again,and the enthusiasm has returned.That Camera shot of Pep on his Haunches,overreacting,shaking his Head in Despair at fuck knows what.That is the Pep we know and love.
Reduced me to tears when he came out to do the after-match interview with the tribute to Colin Bell T-Shirt.
What a Guy.

Dias 60 mill...Maguire 85mill....
Maguire, 8 semi finals, 8 defeats. You have to admire consistency like that :-)

I’m watching the highlights on Quest and Pep’s after match interview, great tribute to Colin Bell. But John Stones interview was superb and obviously from the heart.
Thank you Pep and thank you John Boy. So proud of the team tonight.
Stay safe, take care everyone.
