This is where it started for me, where City's owners opened a few more offshore accounts to stay on top, nothing at all wrong with the officiating in this game, the laws of the game as they were at that time were applied perfectly accurately and correctly, this was the game Guardiola knew despite spending billions, our lads were a vastly superior team and he needed some extra help from offshore sources
Brilliant goal from Fab, one instance in particular later though when he's caught out doing what I slate him for and lets Aguerro get played in between him and our defence far too easily and it's nearly a goal for them, exactly what he did v Real in the recent final, charging blindly to the ball, or not recognising who his man is and going to someone else's, allowing the opposition to play through us
Brilliant assists for Robbo and Hendo and goals for Mo and Mane too, despite being better in some respects through having finally amassed a squad that can be rotated, we're nowhere near as good as we were then now, the proposed evolution has been devolution, too much of what we did that made us the best team in the world for a spell has been laid to waste
