    Ivanovic sent off, and it's an edgy game. A City player might follow, but hopefully not Savic, I'm looking forward to playing against him.

    Edit: Kompany is booked. Come on Kevin.

    Tevez is looking worryingly good. Let's hope we keep our discipline or it will definitely be a mauling

    God knows how Ramires wasn't sent off - clear body check when the keeper was out of his goal as well.

    I don't understand why you've been let back on? You are clearly the dim wit "adam banana" who was banned, so why is everyone just ignoring the obvious and letting you stay?

    I don't think Tevez is the best centre forward in the world but I'd at least add some substance.

    Chill out, he makes the place a little more interesting.

    Who do you think then? Please don't say Ibrahimovic, I know he's good but there are so many things he's bad at.

    He's up there, no question about that. Is he even a centre-forward though? He seems to play a deeper role most of the time.

    Di Natale has crept up that list having seen him live last night.
    A fit Tevez which is what we're seeing is top in the PL, I think he has played his way into my fantasy PL side.

    Who do you think is better? I dont think you can really label a "best striker in the world" right now as there are no real once in a lifetime players at the moment in my opinion, but hes certainly in the top ten.

    If Messi or Ronaldo were number 9 strikers Id say them but I dont think there are any strikers of that calibre right now.

    I intentionally said "centre-forward" to differentiate from the more vague description of a striker, and not to include the likes of Messi and Ronaldo, who would probably be better described as wide-forwards, attacking midfielders or simply wingers. I'm talking about the likes of Raúl and Shearer - proper centre-forwards.

    This is the thing, I think Messi is as much of a centre-forward as Tevez is. In which case you'd have to say it's Messi.

    I think he is originally a "number 9" who City converted to an inside forward to suit their 4-3-3. I believe he played a centre forward role at United
