    If we sre talking about great build up play, the build up to that Toure shot was great.

    All is forgiven Cech, that was some effort by Toure.

    Poor from Ozil. On his wrong foot but he was terrified of having to take a shot.

    We've been the better team in the second half, how can you say "completely" anything? City haven't done that much more.
    You're right, it was an exaggeration.

    I feel City have been better throughout the match so far and thought Aguero's goal would kill the game. I was pretty surprised that the goal came so suddenly and thought that it came out of nowhere to some extent.

    I'm listening to it more than I'm watching it, tbh.

    Nonsense hyperbole by commentators. Cech did not change the direction of that ball.

    Seen the replay twice and still couldn't decide. Excellent save if he did.

    I believe it's because both teams have scored 1 goal ;)

    City starting to threaten again though, worrying.

    He 100% did. The laws of physics dictate this. That, and the fact you can see it change direction.

    We're destined to lose this. Poor decisions against us in the first half, now we've hit the woodwork twice in the closing stages.
    :(

    We will see. I am confident he didn't and if he did it was not in any significant manner to alter the direction of the ball a couple of inches

    Ozil stop turning back onto your left . Cross it with your right.

    Having seen it again, I think I stand corrected! Not definitive though!

    Toure taking a plunge there, dunno why the refs are so reluctant to book that.

    I have never had any problem admitting I am wrong! But as I said before it is still hard to know, definitely not conclusive that it would have went in! His glove did touch it though and the ball moved due to that!

    Delph and Fernando in an FA Cup semi final. The quality in depth of this squad is lacking. Scattergun recruitment.

    Yeah, but his save record is :D

    Yeah, he has saved 10 out of 37, I assume the "saved penalties" includes off target, no??
