Anyone still got any doubts about Pep...

Pep out!!!

We were immaculate

weve not won games like that since Mancini.

This has been coming for some time. A lot of people were quick to criticise Pep, but it was always going to take time. He has added good players, but more importantly he has made some of our best (Kun, Kevin, Raz) into the complete article. I'm not naive enough to think we won't lose some or have bad patches but this could really be a turning point. The media will highlight that Utd are second on points but I said at the start of the season that they would have an easy run for 2 months which would over inflate their ability. We know that we are simply better and it will show over the course of a season. My youngest lad will be at his first ever City game at Stoke and I don't think he gets that this is the best I have ever seen from City in over 40 years supporting them. Sublime.

The rags have 3 tough matches coming up as they start meeting the top 6 teams.
We know they will blow away inferio opposition this year i.e. bully them into submission.
So this period will tell us how good they really are. My money is on a park the bus, grap a breakaway goal for a 0-0 or 1-0 win. What the media call a Mo tactical masterclass, in realityanti football boring tactics.
But are they good enough to implement this? Their defence looks dodgy, midfield is cumbersome, they have pace in attack.
So it will be interesting to see what happens.
It will also br interesting to see if they are allowed the use of elbows, two footed lunges, offside goals and if they cannot be red carded against the top 6?

Best City side I've ever seen. By some distance.

Pep has convinced me. That was amazing control of a game vs a top top team.

Us and Spurs will tear them a new one. Against Chelsea I predict va boring 0-0. Scouse2 and Arsenal will probably bend over as per usual.

Wow. What a performance. From up top to goalie, we absolutely dominated the game. This is a masterclass. Attack in all areas of the field giving your opponent no time or space. Not the so called masterclass that Mourinho provides where they get a set puece goal and sit back

great post!

BT Sport showed Morata goals in the preview thinking he'd get chances like that, but they omitted to take account of Ed coming out and clearing up all problems. Soooooooooooo pleased that we now have such a quality keeper.

That has to be the most complete performance by a City side that I have ever seen

Against a background of today's performance, it's criminal that we were robbed of the full three points against Everton.

We were superb from start to finish.
We made the current champions look like relegation fodder on their own park.
Brilliant performances from everyone.

Been listening to a bit of Talkspite tonight and a number of Chelsea fans were ringing in and praising the way that City played today.
