There's always something reassuring about winning without playing all that well.
City's big weakness is that we've only got half a back four. Kompany is world class and Zabaleta is excellent. Nastasic is potentially top class but not yet. The rest could survive in Mancini's more defensive system but are too easily exposed in a more attacking line up.
I hate to bring up decisions, but that offside is just jaw dropping. I thought City started really well and began to expose our left flank, then before I knew it we were rolling and well on top. The second goal was the killer blow because of when and how it happened. Suarez, despite being relatively quiet, was still our best offensive threat and created some superb chances. Our biggest weakness today was in midfield, I didn't think Fernandinho or Toure done all that much, Henderson was wasteful and Allen fairly anonymous. Lucas remains a 6 or 7/10 player. Despite their recent form, our midfield really does lack in that overall class offensively, there's energy, movement and a lot of qualities, but we really lack a true offensive threat in the middle of the pitch.
