    I'm not a City fan but if any team were the living proof of that phrase "The Beautiful Game", it's Man City. They produce an astonishing quality of football. The best club side there has ever been.

    Gerard Ryan, Hunmanby

    Villa on top but should be more than 1-0 up. Norwich still in the game at this point. A lot depends on the first 15 minutes. If Norwich come out all guns blazing they could get back into this but a second Villa goal will be too much for them to come back from.

    Norwich 0-1 Aston Villa

    Nearly a second for Villa. John McGinn crosses, it finds Ollie Watkins at the back post and his header is kept out by Tim Krul's legs.

    Norwich substitute Sam Byram then gets a yellow card for a mistimed challenge. He's the second home man in the book after Max Aarons was also shown yellow within seconds of the restart.

    Shamshad: Pep and Biesla having huge respect each other off the pitch. But there is no respect on the pitch.

    Simon: Why would anyone be surprised that the City-Leeds game is so one-sided? One of the most resource-rich clubs playing one of the smallest squads with a long injury list.

  7. CLOSE!published at 20:59 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2021

    Norwich 0-1 Aston Villa

    Matt Targett is free on the Villa left, he takes a touch to cut inside and get it on the right foot but pulls a shot from the edge of the area just wide.

  8. YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:56 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2021

    Norwich 0-1 Aston Villa

    Villa defender Ezri Konsa picks up a silly booking for not giving the ball back and kicking it away as Norwich wanted to take a free-kick.

    Steven Gerrard will be furious if that costs his side later on.

    A rare chance for Norwich as a Ben Gibson looping header is easily gathered by Emiliano Martinez.

    Leeds have given the ball away cheaply on a number of occasions, they have spent a majority of the first half on the back foot, they haven't been able to hold the ball at all. Manchester City have swamped all over them. They have been terrific.

    What will Dean Smith have said to his Norwich team? They were over-run, especially down Villa's right-hand side, in the first-half.

    Must be hard to not have envious glances in the direction of Villa, he built a very solid outfit there before being dismissed last month.

    Manchester City have been absolutely scintillating tonight. They lead Leeds United 3-0, but the margin at half-time could have been greater.

    Leeds United are yet to have a shot on target.

    It's 3-0 at the break. It might as well be 7-0. City are cruising.

    City are ending this half with another spell of comfortable possession.

  15. INJURY TIMEpublished at 20:46 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2021

    Kevin de Bruyne cuts past a defender and hammers a shot over the bar.

    Three minutes added on.

    Man City 3-0 Leeds

    Is this Leeds' chance for a first shot? Nope. Jack Harrison's cross is headed away.

    The fact that I'm telling you about Leeds' two or three crosses so far tells you how little they've done.

    I wouldn't stop typing if I was telling you about every probing City attack.

    No Leeds defenders are near Rodri, allowing him a free header in the box from a corner but he can't direct the header towards goal.

    Luke Ayling throws himself at Phil Foden's shot to deny City a fourth. It's still a corner though.

    Pep saying before the game Leeds have a unique style, sure more than a few Leeds fans would like to know what it is at the moment.
