Remember as a attacking midfielder rather then a winger? Like he can play in the number #10 role? But then again, he has used Ramires on the wing before....

To say this deal has been 'close' for a week, haven't really heard anything new about the deal except that the fee has continually been upped. Dunno why but even when we actually try to sign players, we leave to be drawn out long and constantly with twists and turns. Feel like the negotiators are writers for EastEnders sometimes. Wonder whose going to be the father to Jose's baby!

So Stoke can sign yet another player in Shaqiri, but we can't sign a single player since preseason started?

Should have been replaced instead of Oscar. Missing in action. Hope he picks himself up and gets to last season's form.

Made a mistake that came out due to poor defending. Though i don't think that Gomis would have been able to score from the angle that the ball was going and Cahill back-tracking -- it's something that happens. He is only 23 years old, and despite the amount experience he has gained allready as well as the vital natural talent he has, it is these situations that he learns from that will improve more. Hell, he has what possibly 15 years left in him still? Definitely going to be a goalkeeper that will be heralded for his terrific saves rather then the odd ocassional mistakes.

If we are signing players, sign them in quick succession so we can bleed them through the team asap. Spent far too long being the cautious and rather tepid approach to signing players. We need a left back? Sign one. Need a winger - sign one. With the amount from the TV revenue, competition success, and the new kit money, should easily have enough to sign players that we help the team suffice, even for the season.

Poor game.

Ivan was bad, Willian was bad. Great heart and effort. Hope Hazard and co step up BIG TIME for City.

Then Fabregas should have been replaced, he wasn't really in the game and so the one that had to be sacrificed was our best offensive player?

Got an opportunity, couldn't do anything about the penalty but did well neitherless. Begovic in goal next game, so who'll be on the bench??

Least said the better. Great effort.

Ref whistle happy except for when it is the Swansea half...

Willian off for Falcoa

Example of what happens when the big name players turn off....

Zouma for Fabregas.... Holding out for the draw then

Need to take any chances and finishing them.... Ivanovic heads over......

Montero allowed to find space. Need more cover on that side. Swansea are taking it to us atm. Come on!

FFS!! Ten men down, and they were already gathering momentum....

Well fuckitty fuck fuck fuck.....

Swansea is taking it to us this second half

AWFUL defending there, Ivanovic was a spectator. Feel sorry for Thibo :/ WTF? Willian...? HAHAHA!!

Fabregas should have shot then instead of the backheel.....

What another brilliant ball in!! Oscar earned that goal, but really Cahill or Ivanovic could have tapped in either but YES!!!

Nice flick from Matic!! Set piece, waste of a good ball in...

Costa, let's see if you can add to your awesome record. 5 goals in 2 games against Swansea
