Never sure how to feel about a point in a derby but it leaves us top of the table and comfortable going into the next few games. I felt we went for the point quite early into the second half which is unlike us. Manchester City player ratings here: Hart: Had a solid game. Came […]
Pre-derby nerves are up there with some of the worst things in the world, closely followed by an Aguero selfie with a Tory leader and human rights abuser and marmite. I feel as though I need to comfort myself before we kick off at 2:05 in Stretford on Sunday, as I, and most probably many […]
Not the best of performances and one in which we struggled in large parts, but it’s a results business and we went and snatched it. What a feeling. Player ratings from Manchester City’s win over Sevilla here: Hart: Nothing he could do for the goal. Kicking was wayward at times and gave us a scare […]
The M.E.N report that Samir Nasri has been added to the long list of Manchester City players currently sidelined and out of action for the North-West club. The Frenchmen allegedly suffered a hamstring injury during Manchester City’s 5-1 mauling of Bournemouth on Saturday, which is frustrating given that the 28-year-old had just returned from injury. […]
Another comfortable victory at the Etihad and another game in which we’ve scored freely. Also a good way to go into midweek’s tricky fixture against Sevilla. Player ratings from Manchester City’s win over Bournemouth here: Joe Hart: Had little to do. Little he could do about the goal. Customary scream at the defence after we […]
The definition of a game of two halves. What was at first a shaky opening half an hour turned into a more controlled performance as a certain someone ran riot and was ultimately the difference between both the sides. Player ratings here: Joe Hart: Had a good first half making a couple of great stops […]
City made a meal of it but three points away at Gladbach after an opening game defeat is fantastic. There were question marks over certain players’ finishing and defending but overall content with the final outcome. We needed to stop the rot and did so with the win. Player Ratings: Hart: Absolutely fantastic first half […]
We’re having a bit of a wobble aren’t we? Two losses in a row in the Premier League and in both performances there has been a lack of conviction and big players have badly gone missing. Player ratings below: Willy Caballero: Made a wonder save in the first half but was at fault for the […]
As Manchester City take on Spurs at White Hart Lane this weekend, one thing Manuel Pellegrini’s outfit will look to re-find is consistency and after Tuesday’s demolition of Sunderland in the League Cup, this tie acts as a perfect chance to do so. With a plethora of injuries you’d think Pellegrini would have a headache […]
Back to winning ways! Albeit in the League Cup but nevertheless an excellent showing from the boys in… Err yellow!! My player ratings here: Willy Caballero: Made a couple of good stops. Kicking was dodgy at times but steady all round: 6.5 Bacary Sagna: Little to do but handled the game well, took it easy: […]
So the run is over. It was bound to come to an end at some stage but to get beat in the manner that we did was disappointing. Player Ratings: Hart: Should’ve done better on the first goal and could’ve come out for the second: 5. Sagna: Did ok. Fairly average showing- linked up well […]
Signing Patrick Roberts for £4 million, with add-ons seeing the fee rise to £10 million overall, was initially criticised by the media as a flippant purchase for a man who had only made a handful of Championship appearances for Fulham- but for me, he’s a shrewd signing. I write this piece on the back of […]
