City didn't - mentally they were all on the beach, as indeed Wigan players were when they let in 3 at West Brom. Ronnie? He does need a bit of a smacking and quite rightly he's getting terrible press today for behaving like a 5 year old. He could well win us a couple of trophies in the next few weeks and minutes afterwards start all the tedious speculation again. We could probably live without Tevez but Ronaldo does make us look unstoppable - if he's in the mood. I recall the Villa game when he was acting up and not exactly applying himself - then we were 2-1 down and he suddenly decided to impose himself on the game, scored within minutes of this transformation and then played a part in the move leading to Macheda's wonder goal. We will miss him if he goes but in his head he is starring in a movie of his own life - with everyone else an extra!
