Manchester City are trying to be too intricate. This time, Edin Dzeko tries to feed David Silva and it is the wrong option. He should have had a shot from inside the penalty area.
Summary
Aguero pen after Anita trips Dzeko
Nasri slots home from eight yards
Dzeko with first goal since September
Silva now has nine league goals this season
Bony off bench for Man City debut

Manchester City are queuing up to score goals. Newcastle are being opened up every time the hosts come forward and you can't help but feel they could be on the wrong end of a real drubbing.

Only once in Premier League history (7 mins v Burnley in April 2010) have Man City scored three goals before they did today (21 minutes).

Nik, Liverpool: Routine end-of-season defeat for Newcastle. To challenge the oil-backed clubs away, you need to be at the top of your game. How can John Carver motivate a bare bones squad with no real support or ambition shown by the club?

Why does Yaya Toure make such a difference for Manchester City? The midfielder, who is back after winning the Africa Cup of Nations with the Ivory Coast, has had little to do but City suddenly look a different team.

Newcastle's Jack Colback is booked for kicking the ball away. His tenth caution of the season and a pretty cheap way to get suspended for two games.

Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul can be forgiven for being a little shell shocked. He hasn't made a save, has had five touches, and yet finds his side 3-0 down.

"There has been a lot of talk about Wilfried Bony and he will be thinking 'don't forget about me' and he isn't letting the manager forget."

Chris Bevan
BBC Sport"Manchester City had fallen behind in their last four home matches and they had also not scored a single goal in the first 10 minutes of a Premier League home game this season before today - but a slow start has certainly not hindered them today. This is turning into a rout.
"The home fans have turned up the volume in celebration, understandably, with "stand up for the champions" and "champions of England, we know what we are" two recent examples. The Newcastle supporters look ever more subdued."

Samir Nasri has scored in consecutive Premier League appearances for the first time for City, while Sergio Aguero has scored in five of his seven league appearances against Newcastle.
Edin Dzeko on the other hands hasn't scored since September....
CLOSE!published at 17:50 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February 2015
The hosts are threatening to run riot. Sergio Aguero's low shot is inches away from being turned in from close range by David Silva. Some great football in the build-up as well.
