What a win for city, this really puts the pressure on Liverpool.

KittyeeTrix

Yeah, yeah, we get it!!!!!!!!
Only 2 points in it for utd...............

ANYHOW....

Great game by city:)
Hope we can continue like that and defend well in future games

Well done city. Delighted yet so durty. Going for a long shower.

*It wont come clean*

City thoroughly deserved the win today. Chelsea were fúcking useless at times. Had plenty of chances, Chelsea, but screwed them up.

Savage free-kick from Tevez.

No complaints really. Chelsea players' attitude was terrible too; 6 yellows and I'm amazed there wasn't a red for Belletti (the tackle on Wayne Bridge was sick, followed by dissent and then kicking the ball away).

Fair play to City, and I'm just finishing off a HUGE slice of humble pie here...:(

I BLAME THAT AWAY JERSEY TOO, BY THE WAY!!! EVERY SHAGGIN GAME WE'VE PLAYED IN IT, WE'VE LOST!!! GET RID OF IT! haha...

My nerves are shattered after that, what a great win!

Wow. Just wow.

That was brilliant come from behind win.

Nigel De Jong for MOM amongst a whole host of great performances.

De Jong is a monster in that position, seriously why are we even in for Yaya Toure so not needed. Great to end the run of draws and so pleased with the performance.

cmon utd!!!!!!!!!!

Great stuff. Perhaps Chelsea won't win the league by 3 billion points now

Well done City, well deserved.

Fair play to city. They really overpowered Chelsea today bar the finale. De Jong looks like a really good player. consistency is what city need to get into the top 4. very hard to call 4th spot at the minute.

can't recall the last pen Lampard missed, can't be too many anyway. The goal from the free kick was a joke from the Chelsea point of view. It should have been a routine save for Cech. With 2 city lads in the wall it was always going to be headed in that direction.

Great result today but honest to god can City not beat Chelsea without it becoming a Utd thing........
Jeeeeeeeeeeeessssussss help me
Even the sister law is on facebook thanking me for Tevez helping to close the gap on Chelsea for Utd.

Hopefully we can now go on a winning streak and break the run of draws we have had. Would love to finish on a great note for the new year esp with all the games over the xmas and fingers crossed ruin Utd for the derby game gone..........

Didn't see the second half but City looked savage today. Looking forward to MOTD later. LOL @ all the Chelsea defenders getting yellows.

I seriously doubt that you actually did laugh out loud.

I was only going to stay in the pub to watch the first half of this match, but I stuck around for the second half as Man City were just a class above Chelsea today. They were better all over the pitch I thought. Great save from Given, unlucky about the own goal but it showed the determined character of City out there today. Chelsea's discipline was dire.

Got a great laugh out of Ray Wilkins and Carlo Ancelloti's reactions when they, well Ray, thought Chelsea had scored!

I think the blue moon thing before the home match is going to become a regular thing for ye now, almost a good omen!

Before the match, they turned out all the lights in the stadium but I think they had blue lights around the place. On the screen, they had a full moon. They did this before the players came out. It was pretty cool.

Its not going to be dark before every match duh. :rolleyes:

We played terrible, Our goal wasn't a corner, City's first was handball and watch Given come a mile off his line for the peno. Anyway we didn't deserve anything.

No **** sherlock! Doesn't mean City can't project a moon on a screen because it's bright does it?!
