That's why we're champions.....that's why we're champions.....that's why we're champions....that's why we're champions

Love this me, singing it to some of my rag mates over the phone on the way home.

Just read match report on Sky. Described Edin's winner as being "bundled in"!!!!!!!!!

Re: clattenburg

He's a 'look at me' ref.

No arguments with the sending off but when Kompany is constantly barrcaking a ref, you know something is amiss.

Likes blowing his whistle, slowing the game down and showing the players who's boss.

IMHO he was poor but nothing compared to previous seasons

He's a prima donna for sure but I thought he got all the contentious decisions right. It was a red for Milner, last man, clear run on goal, the other defender wasn't getting there. Vinny's error cost us a red but not many players except Milner would've been covering their CB so I am grateful he was there albeit a fraction late. Clattenburg was fair to both teams. Similiar fouls got the same punishment for each side. That's the way he is.

The rules is "goal scoring opportunity" not "last man", it was not a goal scoring opportunity that what people are missing the point over, Lescott was quite close and he wasnt direct on goal

I thought we controlled a lot of the game and eventually got what we deserved. We could have had the game wrapped up comfortably by half-time but we just did our usual thing of making it harder than it needed to be.

Kompany still looks shaky and Lescott didn't look confident either. Everyone else appeared to be cautious but still remained relatively comfortable. Even going a goal down didn't break us, and for that reason I'm immensely proud of the performance.

Yep, from twenty yards out.

I'm loving all this 'Winning at the death' feature that appears to have crept into our play. Makes a fucking pleasant change from losing at the death.

Felt sorry for Milner, he was playing well.
We shouldn't be getting caught that easy.
Proud of them though.
Made up for Dzeko.

I'm sure there was a spell not so long ago where we went 2 or 3 years without winning from behind. Now i almost EXPECT us to find a way to win when trailing, and it seems the players do too. Typical City!

Twatenburgh couldn't wait to get his red out, Lescott was close but not close enough to be fair, if it was at the other end we would have been screaming.....Komps got it wrong, but fair play to Milner he tried to rectify Komps fuck up and was very close to getting it wright, this team needs Milner and I for one hope he keeps his place after his ban
