Our chance to take a leap ahead of United. Not an easy match for us but keep in mind that United play Liverpool. Nasri and Dzeko scored mid week... good momentum. Plus, it's going to be my first time at Eastlands!
That's great, any idea what block you're sat in? I think this will be a very tough game, Alex McLeish teams tend to be hard to break down as we found out last season with two draws against Birmingham.
I hope Shay gets a warm reception from the City fans, not his fault Mark Hughes bought him when he had a ready made keeper waiting in the wings. Hoping we can grind out a victory as Villa are unbeaten this season so far.
Quality performance!! I was surprised by how well we did, early on it had all the signs of a "last season when Silva wasn't playing" performance as we struggled to create many chances, then suddenly we had a couple of chances then Super Mario scored. A goal against a McLeish side is always important as it draws them out more and then the goals started flowing. Milner was absolutely fantastic and his goal was amazing as he started it with a monster pass and then finished it off beautifully. Has to be a goal of the month candidate. Top of the league as we head out of Manchester to Stretford for the derby next week!
Scoring Hollywood goals now! I love seeing Milner scoring what looks to be the most impressive goal he's going to score for City, only to jog back to the center circle, refusing to celebrate out of respect to his former birmingham club. ********in Class. You know he wanted to yell out after hitting that screamer.
