Adam Johnson surely scores a zero, as he didnt play.................did he? I didnt see him on the pitch, sure we only had ten men again?
Thought Lescott was immense yesterday, absolutely awesome in every area of the pitch.
Give the kid a break he is still young and under Mancini`s guidance will develop into a fine player,he just needs experience & how do you get this "by playing".
I bet you are one of these whingers I see around me if City are winning by a country mile you are still not happy and will still find fault in someones play.
I think the word is "gloryhunter".
Do yourself & us a favour and maybe go and watch a game once in a while and for christ sake get behind the team during its most important period in recent history.

Another shameful episode yesterday at Villa Park when the Aston Villa mascot refused to shake the hand of the City mascot,it is hoped that Villa will take appropriate action and fine him a months pocket money,if not nipped in the bud,we could see this sort of behaviour spread,even into the premiership.
TOP OF THE LEAGUE ONCE MORE. NOW LETS MAKE SURE WE STAY THERE!
Kun worked hard but his finishing has left him just now
Johnno never in the game.
Milner was off the pace.
Zabba rarely lets the team down and was industrious all the game.
Overall a very average performance.
Teams seem to have worked City out by playing total defence and we are not moving the ball quickly enough to combat this.
The team strip might look pretty around town (if you like modern kits that is!!!) but it must have been a challenge to pick each other out which did'nt help the passing so this should be an issue that the players feed back to the decision makers. I was at the game & our lads seemed to be anonymous amid all the brightly lit ads, stewards & so on. If one single misplaced pass leads to one single goal that costs one single precious point as a result of wearing the wrong kit, how costly could that be & for what???
Joleon Lescott was man of the match in my book. Regularly criticised on here, hardly put a foot wrong all afternoon and was in the right place at the right time to wrap up the points. Hart would be second for saving those points with a world class stop having had nothing to do all afternoon.
