JoJo for me, great start to the season.
Could have been Fernando.

Jovetic, not just for his goals but the total package. Honourable mentions to Fernando (again) and Clichy on the left where he belongs.

Voted for Jojo, but Fernando + Nasri had a good games as well, and Dinho looked sharp when he came on again

Pretty straight forward this one, funny saying that considering most played well.
Tracking back is overrated.

Gael Clichy was terrible at Wembley but came back with two great performances. Immense tonight.That is what a champion is made of - steel!

Clichy tonight was about ten times better than her was in any game last season. He's looking like an actual footballer again.

Was surprised after watching the tv version, how Joveic didn't look as impressive first half as he did from where I was sat. The areas he was getting into & the angles he was trying to work, was something different to any other player we have. 2nd half of course was more obvious.
I'll whisper this quietly, but so far this season he is creating more chances, with smarter touches, than Silva.

His workrate is up there with Tevez, the motor never stops, he came back for the ball, marked when needed, and the first goal was generated from sheer determination after the ball came off Silva/defender.

Jovetic was good because he had 2 great goals but i thought Zaba was immense. forget the own goal. his presence on the right was a huge difference.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

Fernando has made a huge impact. I don't like two in central midfield especially with Yaya not the greatest when we haven't got the ball. Still that's the way Pellegrini likes to play and Fernando is now a real threat to Fernandinho's place in the team. Miles better than Garcia.

Really wanted to vote for Clichy, but it has to be Jojo.
I thought Nasri was excellent as well. Fernando was also good.
And despite being a lazy bastard who lets the opponents walk through our midfield, I think we will notice it and probably suffer from it once Yaya is not on the pitch. Fernandinho is a great player, but he doesn't have quite the composure and vision that Yaya has. Pretty much every build up from the back goes through Mr. Cake.

Is Mr Cake for a new Tarantino movie, "Diabetic Dogs"?
