I've waited until now to post so I can do so without the emotion of the match. Let's be honest here, mistakes happen. Did Reina have a rush of blood to go running out of his goal like that? Yes. Is he the first goal keeper to do that? No. Sh*t happens and no one expected Aguero to score from there. But let's put that aside and focus on the performance. Let's be clear here, we went to the league champions, a team that costs more than our club is probably worth, and we dominated them. The fluid and precise passing, the quick attacks, the mix of long balls and short was like watching Liverpool of old.
You could really see Brendan's system starting to click today and if we can find the much needed consistency and put in performances like today week-in, week-out, then we'll be back up there challenging for top honours in no time. Without doubt, Sturridge MOTD and right now that's looking like one of the most inspired transfers in recent history. A guy with a lot to prove and so far, he's proving it. Long may the SAS team continue to put the fear of god in to defences!
