Abhishek: Sublime. Absolutely sublime move. Knife through butter. City sending out a strong message.

Adam Cornish: Just came to my attention City will be facing a wounded beast on Tuesday...

Barcelona, who are up next for City in the Champions League on Tuesday, lost 1-0 at home to Malaga in La Liga today.

And sure enough here comes Wilfried Bony. The Ivorian, who cost £25m from Swansea, replaces Sergio Aguero and is greeted by a huge ovation. David Silva is also replaced by Jesus Navas.

It surely won't be too long before we see Wilfried Bony make his Manchester City debut. The sight of him warming up is probably not what Newcastle fans want to see right now.

Newcastle United's heaviest ever Premier League defeat was 6-0 and you can't help but feel that is in danger. City are flying.

Andrew Neil: Come back Alan Pardew. All is forgiven. If indeed there was anything to forgive in the first place.

Former Manchester City striker Shaun Goater: "It's a lovely strike. You don't normally associate David Silva with being so clinical but tonight he has been and the keeper really stood no chance."

Unstoppable. Yaya Toure dinks a pass to Sergio Aguero, he chests the ball down and David Silva drills low into the bottom corner. City score five in the Premier League for the first time this season.

Simply stunning stuff from City. A lightening break sees Sergio Aguero feed Samir Nasri, who squares to David Silva and the Spaniard coolly finishes.

David Penn: Every season one team gets sucked into the Premier League relegation battle. Step forward Newcastle United...

Former Manchester City striker Shaun Goater: "Newcastle have come out with some purpose about them and some pace too. They have come out to try and get amongst City and try and catch them off guard."

Almost the perfect start for Newcastle as Papiss Cisse's volley flies towards the top corner, via a big deflection from Vincent Kompany, only to be clawed away by Joe Hart. A Marco Van Basten-like strike.

Midfielder Mehdi Abeid replaces Vurnon Anita for the second half. I'm not surprised, he had a bit of a howler in that first 45.

Here come the teams. Damage limitation for Newcastle? It would be some fightback if they get anything from this.

I imagine Chelsea players have switched over to Take Me Out already (or to something of a similar quality)...

Daniel Walford:, external Imagine a Man City dream team with Yaya Toure and Shaun Goater...

Mark:, external Is Peter Moores managing Newcastle? Remarkably similar to England's batsmen - useless in defence, no better in attack.

Fair to say Yaya Toure has been at the centre of things in that first half, judging by his touch graphic above. The Ivory Coast international has had 66 touches, more than any other player on the pitch. Welcome back Yaya.

"From the very start City's pace has been electric. Everyone has been playing one or two touch and it's been so quick. It has been a superb half by City and it is about them keeping this up in the second half, not just to keep them in front but maybe add one or two more goals."

Brandon: Get Sergio Aguero off now and get Wilfried Bony on - keep Aguero wrapped up for the season run in!

Newcastle have had just as many shots as Manchester City but the difference is what they have done with them. City have hit the target with four of their seven shots, Newcastle have been off radar with all of their efforts.

BBC Radio Manchester

Former Manchester City striker Shaun Goater: "Newcastle haven't played badly but City have just been on form and not given them a chance. When one has pressed there has been a second or third player and they have either won the ball or pushed Newcastle all the way back to their defenders."

"Manchester City made a fast start to this game in terms of goals and they also have their trademark slick passing tempo back up to full speed when they come forward.

"The Yaya Toure effect? Quite possibly. We are yet to see any buccaneering runs from the Ivorian midfielder and he has looked a little slow to some situations, but those around him are zipping one-touch passes past Newcastle players with renewed confidence, particularly Samir Nasri."
