I have no idea what reggae reggae sauce is. I think I am more of a Ska Sauce person, but am open to new experiences.

One of the most pleasing aspects after being at the Saints game on Saturday, is that we had over 50% possession at Man Citeh and Benteke was in the team. That shows they learnt from their mistakes on Saturday and weren't just hoofing it to Benteke, he can be a brilliant asset provided we keep the ball on the deck.

Good observation. On Saturday it was almost like TSM thinking (or lack thereof) came back as soon as they saw the big man. Glad to see Lambert stamped that out.

I'm down with the two posts above, but still the winner was goal-kick, Benteke flick, Gabby shot, CNZ rebound. Mixing it up?

I actually think it is statistics like that which say the most about the way our game is progressing.

I struggle to remember the last time before this season we had > 50% possession.

Decent watch

Around 14.50 Kolarov blows his nose on his shirt before giving it to Bentekkers.

Indeed and the comparison between the results and performances of last night and Saturday's game show how critical it is to retain possession.

Observations:

1. Before Villa go out second half Vlaar’s teamtalk “if it’s not on, just keep passing it”
2. The teams (both) are really quiet
3. Man City employ someone to hang Mancini's coat up at half time
4. LOTS of people are employed to open doors
