Ye city fans must just love watching the team when they're attacking. De Bruyne is a joy to watch!

True, the defender has been justified this year. Worth the investment.

Ederson fairplay,what a save,Hope to see Yaya get a few minutes,I think Aguero def gets a few aswell.

Agreed about Yaya. If it's still 2-0 going into the last 20 minutes, his experience could be vital. I wouldn't have Kun anywhere near that pitch tonight though, and definitely not as things stand. No need to be rushing him back.

Aparently Kev was unhappy with the officiating, and wanted a word with the 4th official. From what I'm reading, Dave and Dinho were trying to pull him away, and he was like; "I'm fine, I don't need you guys pulling me away".

He didnt look happy,I heard him saying Let me talk ,suppose Silva was only looking out he didnt get the second yellow.
15 -20 mins wont break Aguero,he needs to be getting minutes if hes fit,he would be no were near the bench if there was any issue with his ribs.Dont want to see a rusty Aguero in the league when he could shake off a few cobwebbs tonight.

From what I'm reading, we've been poor this half. Time to step it up.

Poor by our standards

good win - only caught the last twenty mins at home (Was in the pub where typically City were on the smallest screen way in the corner) so couldnt really say how the rest went.

looked like Napoli really looked dangerous but city were just better over the 90

From what I've read, we had more than enough opportunities in the first half to have put the game to bed by half time. In the end, we were hanging on. But we took care of business. Pocket the three points and move on. One more point should see us qualify, though we ought to be looking at winning the group if we can.

We are well on our way, a win to Feyenoord and 2 draws ,or two wins and straight top .
Feyenoord should be easy enough if I am honest and Shakatar we should run close.
Whats our up coming fixtures for the CL.

Napoli away on Nov 1st, Feyenoord at home on Nov 21st, finishing with the trip to Donetsk on Dec 6th.

Taking that we beat Feyenoord, and aslong as Donetsk dont win all there games we should top the group.
Ederson was getting some praise on BT,you could see Dunne was delighted.

But what if Napoli beat us by two out there, then match our final two results? They'd go above us on the head to head, wouldn't they?

On goal difference your talking about,if they beat us by two then we are +5gd,matching our results is not good enough after

I'm pretty certain it's head to head in the CL, not GD. If we finish level on points with Napoli (and they've beaten us by two goals out there), we'd finish behind them as we've "only" beaten them by a single goal tonight.

Yea, you are right I checked it there on Wiki [URL="httphttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017–18_UEFA_Champions_League_group_stage#Tiebreakers"]Link[/URL]

Assuming we beat Feyenoord we would have to lose both to Napoli and Donetsk for that to happen.

suffering golfer

Fantastic result... little edgy but only to be expected against a good team. The return fixture will be tough, and to be honest, I can't see us doing better than a draw, which would be more than sufficient anyway.


Also seeing that KDB agent is looking for a improved contract for KDB on similar terms to Neymar. The great thing is that he is only 2 years in on a 6 year contract so club can take their time with negotations and not be held to ransom. Not that KDB doesn't deserve a new improved contract, I just doubt it will be anywhere near Neymar levels.

United 2 nil down could be a great day.

To those claiming Bernie dived....



Definite contact. Goalie's right knee with Bernie's right ankle.

GET IN!

3-0 now; Leroy. Never in doubt!

Plenty of chances wasted and a few iffy performances.
But still managed to win with a very convincing scoreline.

I love this team!

Didn't see the game today, so I can't comment on that. But The game at Anfield last weekend was not a great advert for the beautiful game. But our quiet neighbours will argue (with some justification) that their brand of football is winning them trophies. Which it has. I just would like a team I was watching to try to play with a bit more adventure. They have the players.

Good to see the invincibles dropping points today. Another good performance today, some tough games coming up. Be interested to see who he plays in league Cup.

Sounds like Kun and Jesus may well be in on tuesday. And you'll probably see the likes of Mangala, Adarabioyo, Danilo, Bravo, Gundogan, Yaya, Zinchenko and Diaz in contention for places. Foden is away on international duty in India with the England U17s, otherwise he'd have been nailed on for a place. Most of what you would call the "A team" won't be playing.

A dodgy stream might be your best bet. Not much use to me though, given what passes for broadband down here.

Vodafone should be fine,did you try 3,they have all ya can eat data for 20 euro a month,and then can use the 20 credit on the play store or Netflix subscription or buy Playstation or XBox value cards and add them to your console to buy games or what ever.

3 are worse than useless for data around here. Vf are great for 4G around here, but I'm on a 5GB limit on my plan, and using the phone as a hotspot would chew up data. Not to worry; I'm sort of used to following them on various forums/apps/websites.
