I like that Nunes

He can break the line but not sure on his overall game.

He’s getting there.

First half was a war of attrition. Second half better on the eye. I thought Pep would of brought Rodders and Johnny boy off earlier buy hey ho. Oscar Bobb is fucking brilliant!

It's not a game that will live long in the memory ;-)

Thought we were pretty poor first half, though it was hard against a 10 man defence, better second half, once they ran out of defensive fortune.

Its a bullshit competition but , ENGLISH , EUROPEAN & WORLD CHAMPIONS does have a nice ring to it , a definite T-Shirt , Beer Mat or Mug opportunity

You’ve missed out Champions of MANCHESTER

It felt like a pre-season game but did the job and we played OK, thank god we did not have to play the 3rd and 4th place play-off

Thought walker was awful defensively. Nearly cost us two goals. Needs a rest and a kick up the @£$€

I thought he was back to his old self getting back and covering. He has always had a cock up in the system though.

Full replay is up on the FIFA site if anyone missed the original broadcast.

Pep has been at City nearly eight seasons and it really does show. Patience is one of his virtues and the team showed plenty of calm assurance and not a hint of anxiety when the break through didn't come quickly. There was some sloppiness at the back but it looked more and more comfortable as the game wore on. So far we can be pretty content with our debut.
