The Shape of things to come?

DaveP, Mark, Ian & Lezz wax lyrical about City's performance at the CCS as the second win of the season was secured with a 2-1 success.

Nigel opted for height with Baker in as a straight swap for JDS as a left back rather than in a 3. Baker alongside the increasingly impressive Pring gave City a particularly strong left flank.

Two superb strikes by Weimann would have most saying he was MOM but we thought Massengo ran him close with an energetic display and a sublime back heel which allowed Semenyo to cross for goal No. 2.

This was arguably City's best showing since Pearson took over and a few more performances like this will see his "era" getting up to speed after a stuttering start.

We also chewed over the likelihood or not, the latter being more likely, of significant transfer activity before the window shuts as it seems Pearson is true to his word of not buying for the sake of it.
