I thought Delph played well.

Ye I did too. But Silva was best. With no help from ref. Thought fernandinho was poor and kdb. I would get fabinho

Agreed.

All about the fullbacks for me, it would transform us.

You should put this on the City page.

My MOTD was Fernandinho, with Delph a close 2nd.

Silva's brilliant every week and as you say, gets little, to no protection from referees. How many times did Kante get him last night before he finally got a yellow card.

I meant to put it on the city page. Thought it was until u said. It said man city when i did it.I im sure you're on my side saying its not a problem

Pleasantly surprised by Delph.

Very good on the ball, but very rarely looked like hurting us as a whole lastnight imo. Best chances came from set pieces.

Silva did play the ball out of play a few times aswell.

How kompany stayed on the pitch lastnight was a miracle though. Consistent fouls, took out costa pretty bad, took out hazard on the edge of our box, and then that foul by the touchline. Very lucky boy.

But funny you mention kompany but not kante

And Costa took him out pretty bad. You forget that? At least vk was after the ball

Thought Sane and Aguero had the best chances but snatched at them.

I didn't think any player was close to a red last night. I find this clamour nowadays to get them awarded ridiculous.

could say the same to boris about mentioning kante and not kompany. Regardless of that I thought kompany's challenges were a lot worse.

best chance of the match was hazard skying over the bar, but never should have scored his first anyway...terrible keeping.

The rest of your team is so deep at times, he's very isolated for a lot of it. Your system is definitely designed to get the most out of Hazard (which Costa helps a lot with in terms of off the ball).

of what? the chance? edge of the box, on a hat trick, has to hit the target.

Or the goal? Straight at him despite a little nick, should have kept it out, or pushed the pen wide.

couldn't disagree more. Most games we have majority of possession and it breaks down time and time again, he always lingers offside so when we win the ball at the back he cant even challenge for it up top, so the ball just comes back.

Also disagree he helps hazard, if anything hazard frees up space for costa
