Man City kicked ass and took some names in a 3-0 thrashing of Liverpool.
City took care of business at their house.
Tevez hit the daily double.
The head case Tevez looks like he has buried the hatchet with City manager Roberto Mancini.
I mean Liverpool let victory slip out of their hands in their season opener at Anfield against my guys from Arsenal. However, this sucker wasn’t even close.
City was in control from the outset.
This 3-0 win was the largest win over the Reds since 1937.
James Milner was the key in the match.
He set up City’s first goal.
Milner feed Gareth Barry.
Barry ripped the twines in the 13th minute.
It all went downhill from there for Liverpool.
City looked like crap in their opener against Tottenham.
Now Man City looked like world-beaters.
Liverpool may struggle big time this year.
So far, a great start to the season.
I can’t wait to see how this season will shake down.
I still think Chelsea is on the downhill side of forty.
The Blues may win the title but this will be their last hurrah.
More skinny on the EPL on the flip side.
You gotta love it.

I was very skeptical of Mancini as manager of Manchester City. I thought hiring him would be an unmitigated disaster. Oh contraire. How wrong was I. However, this is nothing new for the Gee Man.

Mancini has a great track record wherever he has gone. Roberto Mancini has won three straight Seria A titles with Internazionale-2005-08. He also won the Italian Cup with Lazio in 2004, and Fiorentina in 2001.
Mancini also played for the Italian national team from 1984-94. He earned 34 caps.
City destroyed Blackburn 4-1.
Carlos Tevez hit for the hat trick. All three of his goals displayed the shear brilliance of this man’s shot making and goal scoring ability.
Imagine if the idiot Argentine headman Maradona would use both Tevez and Messi as strikers instead of depending solely on Messi what kind of havoc this would cause the rest of the world.
I am just the idiot blogger not the coach so don’t pay any attention to what I have to say.
Let Maradona and Grondona ruin Argentine futebol.
I won’t stand in your way.
Have at it guys. This is your team not mine.
Now back to the story.
I just had to say this to get it off my chest.
Tevez rocked the twines in the 7th minute. A great corner kick triggered off a Keystone Cops “D’ by the Rovers. Shot. Block. Rebound. Tevez’s rocket into the back of the net made it 1-0 City.
City made 2-0 in a flash of eye in the 39th minute. City’s Benjani made the keeper Paul Robinson look silly. One problem Benjani’s shot went bonk off the left post. Micah Richards gobbled up the rebound and flicked a great shot into the back of the net.
Tevez made 3-0 in the 49th minute. Benjani fired a great centering ball near the top of the box. Tevez one timed the winner.
The Rovers finally got on the scoreboard in the 71st minute. City fell asleep at the wheel thus allowed Morten Pederson to rip the back of the net to cut the City lead to 3-1.
Tevez had an easy walk in goal in the 90th minute.
City is for real guys.
The rest of the EPL better take notice.
Man U was real stupid to let Tevez take a walk.
Sir Alex should have offered this cat the moon.
Tevez is the real deal.
His hat trick today gave him fifteen goals for the season.
Imagine Rooney and Tevez sharing the pitch. This would be murder.
Shame on you Manchester United for your troubles are of your own making.
Prediction: Arsenal will win the EPL.
Manchester City will be second.
Chelsea third.
Tottenham fourth.
Manchester United will be fifth.
Let’s see if the Gee Man is right.
