Manchester City 3-2 Aston Villa: Post Game Thread

Well that was fun/nerve-wracking/laboured/a relief.

Goals from Aguero - a gift -, a kolarov free-kick and a Fernandinho effort from a cleared corner were just about enough to secure an important 3 points for a labouring Manchester City side.

This tweet perfectly sums up City's dead-rubber of a season:

Good news and bad news for City fans. Bad news, there's only 4 games of the season left. Good news, there's only 4 games of the season left.

Numbers

Pretty even shot count here with City sat back for long stretches of the game while trying to maintain a 1-0 lead.

Any thoughts/concerns/issues?

Game time for Mangala is about the only positive I can glean from this game. Otherwise we didn't learn anything we didn't already know.
