There is no way Zinchenko will start against Villa. I would also say Fernandinho shouldn't be anywhere near a CB starting spot if Ake is fit next week.

Lots going on in Zinnys head but even in normal circumstances he shouldn't be anywhere near the first team in big games. Ake is a much better option.

KDB has missed as many for us as Mahrez has. Either of them could have scored or missed it.

Fair enough. I still maintain Kev was a better player to take it, whether he scored or missed it (even though I think Kev more likely scores it in this situation), for the reasons I outlined in another post.

Antonio was an absolute disgrace today, constantly diving, throwing dissent at the officials and escaped a booking for it all. Not seen him like that before

actually thought Taylor did well not folding to the crowd

Positives - Good result with a patched up defence, away against a difficult team fighting for a place in Europe.

Negatives - The disgusting reaction of sadly what is a large number of idiots on here slagging off a team and manager that have given us the best days of our lives EVER following City, when things aren't quite going how they seem to think we have a god-given right to expect them to go.

Watching the team makes me proud to be a Blue. Listening to you lot makes me ashamed.

Never ever slagged off Pep....so no idea where you got that one from...Id defend Pep no matter what.
I said our back 4 looks vulnerable- is that incorrect? Ferna is one of my all time favourites but even though its a patched up defence we look vulnerable - fact
No one ever thinks we have a god given right....Im not sure where you are getting that from......

Yes, there were a couple of young ones on the bench

We really can't sling a couple of youngsters into the heart of the defence in a title deciding game, it could break them irreparably.

if walker is fit play him at centre half and get that bald old slow scrawny man out of the centre of our defence

Dinho is a legend here,nothing will change that,he will happily leave his heart and sole on that pitch.....so,while he is past his best,have a bit of respect you wanker.

Feels like a defeat :-(

feels more like were likely to be champions :-)

We got away with one there, they focused on our weak spots and it paid off for them in the first half.
I love Fernandinho, for what he's done for us, but he was awful and his mistakes almost cost us the title.

A great response in the second half though and we should've won the game really.

 

[Blue Tooth]

Great second half and a big result. Win our last game and it is ours. Simples ;)

Maybe he's moving to the swamp in the summer
