Koscielny (thinking): "In a game of this magnitude, Monsieur Dean won't have the balls to send a player off in the first 10 mins.... " Mike Dean: "Try me. "
Stupid from Kompany too. Similar to Scholes - no disputing his quality but he's prone to making silly rash challenges that could easily break a leg. Wilshere already lost over a year of his career to injury, he doesn't wanna lose another.
Great game from Mike Dean, all credit to him for making the hard calls

I knew City was still dangerous even with City players sitting this game. To bad we could not make it more exciting from Gunners supporters at home
Kompany' tackle was a fair challenge and should not even have been a free kick. If anything the Arsenal player was at fault for losing the ball and sprinting into Kompany to try and make up for it
I don't know the exact translation. I'm not Bosnian. But apparently it was a message to friends and family in his hometown letting them know he hasn't forgotten about them or where he comes from. Top man
Good United Liverpool match. Arsenal City match disappointing. Koscielny challenge was disgraceful he should have let Dzeko go as K was in no position to make a challenge. Sometimes you just need to say, "Damn he got the better of me" I wonder if Arsenal really have the winning mentality to make the top four this season...
Tough start for Arsenal from the beginning with the red by Koscielny grabbing dzeko, he didn't need to do that. But what a penalty save off the post and then online and doesn't go in. But Milner got a great strike for the goal and then Dzeko tap in 2-0. Could win for City, would being nice for Arsenal to get some points but it happens especially being down a men most of the game. Kompanys red was pretty hard tackle but City pulled off the win
Dzeko's surely made his price tag worth it by now, a slow and steady performer since the beginning. Hope he doesn't leave the prem, milner/tevez/silva still should have taken that pen though
