VMC Forum Man of The Season Update

12 competitive games in and The VMC Forum's latest Man of The Match Poll registered Hotshot Aleks Kolarov as the star, reflecting a solid squad effort in our leader board...

The uncompromising Kolarov is steadily finding his City feet and we are witnessing a greatly improved player on last season's campaigns. Like Gareth Barry and James Milner, the Serbian left back/ left midfielder appears to be benefitting from the increased competition for places in Roberto Mancini's effective.

Each and every one of the key players already noted by the VMCers as doing a great job for The Blues over these opening three months of the season will have to be on their game from the off at The Swamp on Sunday.

A slow start is not an option and it could well be that Mancio opts to bring in Micah Richards and Gael Clichy's pace for those crucial full back positions.
