    A goal worthy of winning such an important game.

    Feel sorry for a couple of my mates, who are Liverpool fans. Will it be so near, yet so far yet again. ?
    Been reading that Firmino and Salah have both been ruled out of the return European tie against Barcelona.
    That puts the team under extreme pressure knowing they now have to score four at Anfield to go through.
    Next Sunday, Liverpool play Wolverhampton Wanderers and there's nothing to say that the latter are
    not capable of getting a result at Anfield. To-nights strike from Kompany, was fit to win any game and
    for all their endeavours over the season, Liverpool could end up empty handed. I say that, because in truth,
    I can't honestly see Manchester City losing at the Amex against Brighton and Hove Albion at the
    weekend, so for me, the title is there for City to go out and win in style for consecutive seasons.

    Honestly can't stand Man City. I'd rather Sheff Utd win the league next season than them, that's how far my loathing goes. Their ownership structure, sponsorship structure, blatant FFP work-arounds and young prospect hoarding sum up everything that's broken in our beautiful game. There are other teams with similar situations I also dislike, but City are the kings of it.

    I used to do that every Sunday for Hoyland Common Falcons under 14s.

    Just ask my former team mate Nicky Eaden.

    Tell you what. Just seen the highlights on MOD. Leicester played very well
    and City were very edgy before Kompany's brilliant strike. Didn't surprise me
    really what with Kasper and Jonny Evans in their team. If he gets the players
    he wants in the close season, I can see Brendan Rogers getting Leicester in
    the top six of the Premiership next season.

    Taking nothing away from a wonderful strike, but what about the "defending"? Just stood off him and gave him all the time in the world. Not that they would have been expecting him to do that, though!

    Not that I'm a perfectionist but every professional footballer should be capable of scoring from range. They might have different degrees of skill on the ball but should be capable of hitting a ball.

    It's like bowlers in professional cricket who are frequently skittled out for ducks. If they played at Saturday afternoon level they'd be opening batting banging in hundred's every game. The capability is there but not necessarily the skill.

    I agrhee MT. I would have thought that in keeping with their performance in the previous sixty nine
    minutes of play, one of the Leicester players should have at least got close enough to Kompany to put
    him off. I bet the defence and the keeper might have thought, OK, let him have a go because there's no chance of him
    scoring from that distance. At the other end, Leicester had two excellent chances and should really have
    put one of them away. Incidentally, very impressed with Maguire, especially when he went forward from defence on a
    mazy run down City's left flank. He's come on leaps and bounds since leaving Sheffield United has that lad.

    Thought this was going to be a "What do we reckon? He's out of contract this summer" thread.

    Not a fan of the modern day Man City. It's just the way top flight football has gone. Top 2 20 odd points ahead of third, another gulf between the big spending top 6 & the chasing pack.

    Kompany has at least shown some loyalty to the club & seems a good role model.

    Eventually the top six will all be fighting for the Premiership. It's just the likes of Everton at the moment have the money but don't know how to spend it.

    Great goal and City got their deserved winner in the end. Bit embarrassing they have digital fan banners though.......



    That's the worse Football related thing I have seen in ages.

    Reminds me of Gundi Bergsson, Bolton Away Boxing day 1997.
