Well, my internet connection, or maybe it was the server of the site I was watching the game on, was pretty poor and kept dropping out every 2 minutes or so, I was not able to fully focus on the game, from what I did see we deserved the 3 points but did not put away our chances again. That penalty miss will be shown the world over again and again, Elano should have grabbed the ball and taken it but then again Robinho was confident enough and should have put it away. I thought Richards looked like his old self going forward and using his pace more than he has of late.
We missed Superman, who would have thought I would every say that !!, but it's true most of our good atacking options come through Ireland, Player of the season by a country mile.
Hoping to see Martin Petrov back in the squad soon which will give us another good attacking option.

City 2 Villa 0
Great result, several outstanding performers - SWP, Elano was near his best, still think he needs to muscle up though and stop lashing out like he does when he looses the ball, Richard Dunne and Neddy both turned in colossal performances to snuff out the Villa attack, Zabaletta did very well and makes me feel more comfortable with him there at right back, DeJong was back at the top of his game in the first half and how we missed him when he went off just after half time.
All in all a very good performance with out our so called top stars. If we can reach this standard with some consistency we would be in a much better position and probably somewhere near where Villa currently sit.
