They were in roller-coaster form at home. Mou gets deprived of Cech and Terry, fields a 'comparatively' weak team, visits Anfield and pulls off a 2-0. many might say Mou has pre-historic tactics and parking buses, tractors and space-ships. but the fact is, at the end of the day, results matter. its time, teams find out ways to frustrate Mou. City lost twice to Chelsea by one-goal margins and defeated them once by a two-goal margin.
city is back to the front, mathematically. win three games (Everton (A), Aston Villa (H), West Ham (H), get on level with a winning Liverpool and clinch the title by superior goal difference. two seasons back, it was ManU. anyways, it sounds pathetic. City winning it courtesy of Liverpool, Chelsea and Sunderland.
City were really pepped by the Liverpool-Chelsea score. Dzeko scored in the third minute. Toure wrapped it in the 43rd minute. Played the second half safely. Joe Hart was not troubled much. Kompany and Demechelis are becoming really good at their job. its a good thing City won an away match without Silva.
next is Goodison Park on Sat. a defeat there and this weekly title-crunch will flip again.
