Saturday’s 3-0 win over soon-to-be-deposed English champions Chelsea, which featured Sergio Aguero’s hat-trick, suggested City are nearing top form and midfielder Yaya Toure said: “We played very well.

In the end, I must say they have the players that can take advantage of every counter attack.
Lehmann said this season’s letdown for Arsenal was one of their biggest in recent history.
With his previous clubs featuring in the latter stages of competitions more often, Adabeyor admitted the achievement would be even more special at Palace. “After the equaliser, I thought it might be us that won it, if anyone. He really is in really good shape, mental-wise and physical-wise it’s really good, and for us so important, because, for example, Roberto Firmino now has an injury problem after he was in ideal shape”, Liverpool manager Klopp said.
The 32-year-old believes confidence is beginning to grow amongst the squad as they aim to gather momentum ahead of Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final against Watford. “For me it would be my best moment in England”.
