Again we move up to third in the Premiership after beating Manchester City at home, the men of the moment Rosicky and Fabregas netting another goal each.

Rosicky gave us the lead after 12 minutes lead when he clinically finished from Eboue’s right wing cross.

City pulled one back just before halftime after ‘Mad’ Lehmann cleared the ball – straight to Joey Barton enabling Beasley to finish and bring the match back level again. City then had a few decent chances, but Jens regained his composure to pull off some great saves and keep us in the match.
 
Adebayor again had some good efforts saved (which is becoming somewhat of an uncomfortable reoccurrence), but yet again he failed to capitalise on the first team opportunities he is currently being given. With the return of Thierry and Van Persie next season, its difficult to see Adebayor starting too often unless he can really make a bigger impression. 

In the 73rd minute Fabregas collected a loose ball just outside of the box and smashed home an absolutely amazing volley. Then seven minutes later Baptista converted Hleb’s cross to wrap up the win.
