If Manchester City manage to overhaul Liverpool and become the first team in 10 years to retain the Premier League title, this win at Southampton may well be looked back upon as a pivotal moment.

After three defeats in four games, the last of which saw us struggle to play with anything like our usual quality, the 3-1 win at St. Mary’s marked a clear return to form.

This was far more like the City we’ve come to expect over the past 18 months: free-flowing, inventive and hard-working, a mix that overwhelmed Southampton and saw us run out deserved winners.
