Seems of very little consequence after the events post match but nevertheless it was same old city on Saturday. At times we were stunning going forward with Bellamy a constant thorn in Sunderland (in particularly Nosworthy's) side, Tevez busy as ever and Santa Cruz finally showing more than a glimpse of what he can bring to the party (Adebayor take note). Shaun was back on the right and all though not one of his best games (and cut short through injury) he and Bellamy helped provide the pace and balance that we sorely missed against Spurs.
2-0 up after 20 minutes and I'm predicting Sunderland are the team that are going to get the spanking we've been due to give someone at home since the season started.
It's not long before the same old defensive deficiencies return and we contrive to turn a 2-0 lead into 2-2, a 3-2 lead into a 3 all before finally sealing the game by taking the lead and (god forbid!) hold on to it.
Overall a great game to watch although you can feel the anxiety in the crowd as soon as anything goes into our box. Wonder what Hughesy will have to say in the post match?
