50/1 on Swansea 1-0 is a big price, opening day and all that

I'd have gone 3-0 City, but with Balotelli AND Aguero on the bench, their somewhat non-threatening CM trio and Mancini's generally negative mindset, you do wonder if this City side is likely to be full of goals.

Not sure.

1-0 Swansea is 20/1 on PP, where on earth are you getting 50s?

under 2.5 goals is my bet

WTF are those t-shirts the city players are wearing for the warm up

[Craig_H]

Part of Manchester City Council campaign to 'unite' the city, following the recent trouble.

[Gaz]

Can't see Tevez and Balotelli being in a rush to order one

[Shaggy]

Balotelli with the artistic licence

[Craig_H]

The t shirts' message is 'I love Manchester' - Balotelli has written 'City' on it

[Gaz]

Brilliant

Sky studio team being so serious & fair about tonight's game its surreal. Why does nobody ever say "Swansea are going to get murdered here"

BBC Sport's Chris Bevan at the Etihad Stadium: "Electric atmosphere at the Etihad. The Swansea fans haven't shut up yet. Swans boss Brendan Rodgers has not sat down yet either."

Swansea havent started badly, have they?

I'm glad Toure's shot didn't go in, in the first couple of minutes as I wonder if their heads would have dropped. But, yeah, Swansea have visibly grown in confidence as the game has gone on; they're extremely comfortable with the ball and are in no rush to punt it long - it's great to watch.

I do wonder if they had someone more imposing up front that could bully defenders might benefit them, as it's the final third where they seem to fizzle out, but they have bags of pace and they're giving a good account of themselves.
