Hard Fought Victory

No easy games in the Premier League and that was no exception.

Silva (as usual) was my MOTM but I don't begrudge Sky giving it to Sterling as he played a blinder.

Sane a bit off song and Sagna having no attacking prowess would be my only criticisms but a special shout for Fernandinho - I could see him playing at LB permenantly as he has the pace and the nous to know when he should drop back.

The whole defence looks a lot more content with a big Willy behind them.

On a serious note Caballero hasn't put a foot wrong since coming in, and his passing out under pressure is as good if not better than the clown we bought in the Summer.

That through ball to Ibe in the first half would have been a goal if that was Bravo.

Hoping VK will be slowly, slowly, eased back in. Rather have him for the run in than a 1 game cameo followed y another 12 weeks in physio.

Pep said Kompany isn't as good a passer as Kolarov or Stones. That's why he can't get into the team.

Kolarov keeping VK out of the team.......

Vinny should get a chance soon and hopefully will be back for the rest of the season. Can't complain too much given City now sitting second but the results against Everton and Leicester and the awful refereeing of the Tottenham game are now haunting us.

Vinny's problem is, I regret to say, his fitness. He has had so many muscle injuries now that he is carrying a lot of scar tissue. The beat on the street is that he will never play more than one match a week now, and maybe not even that. Guardiola is stubborn and opinionated, but he isn't stupid. If Vinny was fit and in his prime he'd be in there.

Vinny will play Saturday I would imagine... I actually think Stones would benefit greatly from a stint alongside him, Pep needs to remember that players like Stones will be with us much longer than he himself will be.

I'd rather believe what Pep actually says (unless he is telling us how good Bravo is)

Cast you minds back to when Vinny was a DM rather than a CB and his main attribute was his passing.

Pep is talking bolloccks.

That may be so Inky, but that's his excuse/reasoning
