    Absolutely class tonight!! Ran his blood to water, he looks a different player this season.


    Really enjoy the game tonight, was nerve racking, atmosphere was good! Can't wait to see them against stoke.

    I must have been watching a different game. He's supposed to be a centre forward but is never in the box when it matters.

    Bruce said tonight that he planned to play him wide. He thinks he's adjusted to the English game. He was in the box plenty of times in the first half. I was right in line with the box. Best performance in a City shirt for me...

    I beg your pardon, what game were you watching sir? I thought he was dreadful.

    Just about everyone has him in the top 3 in the man of the match thread and most seem to have him as our number 1 player today.

    Dreadful my ass, most of the stadium agreed when he was announced man of the match. His hold up play was excellent tonight and some of our best chances in the first half in particular came from his superb holding and then passing!!!

    Yeah I thought he was good. He doesn't have the instinct for goal that Jelavic has but he makes other contributions. His pace, power and determination combined are useful and he finds little pockets of space in deep positions. I'm happy with him being our 3rd striker.

    Maybe paying £115 for 2 tickets has skewed your evaluation of Sagbo's performance , he wasn't that good , just better than usual

    He wasn't ****, he just didn't stand out for me... but then again no-one did. Hudds passing seemed off, Livermore was anonymous, Long seemed to have his shooting boots on the wrong feet, Snodgrass showed a few decent touches as did Sagbo but nothing special, Brady's cross for Elmo was class but also kept giving it away, Elmo also gave the ball away in some terrible positions. MacGregor had nothing to do apart from the goal he let in.

    @bbcburnsy: Steve Bruce says @Sagboyannick20 has his best game in a City shirt. Hard to disagree, looks much better through the middle. #hcafc

    I've never been a big fan tbh but he had a decent game tonight, not outstanding, just much better than usual!

    Sagbo was very good tonight, held the ball up well, created play and got stuck into the Trencin players which you don't often see him do.

    He was excellent as he often is when played more centrally and not stuck out wide.

    So what if I paid 115 for 2 tickets, I was suppose to be working, ended up not and was desperate to go, so I did anything I could to get to the game and see the team I support! 115 quid is nothing compared to seeing my team progress to the play off stage in Europe, for the first time in their history!!

    Agree with this. I'm normally reluctant to moan about where managers use players but he really does look **** every time he's on the wing, and much more useful down the middle.

    Didn't go tonight, but i like him a lot. I think he'll be improved on last season and he'll have a big part to play this season.

    Sagbo was my stand out man of the match. Closely followed by Snodgrass.
