I disagree with those that say a 4 man midfield with Yacob in could have done the job. There is so much movement and fluidity in the Man City attack even before you consider their ability on the ball. For me the only way to play against them (home or away) is to go with 5 in the midfield with really pacy wingers and hit on the counter attack. I think Pulis is right to take the blame and should have gone with one up top.
My team would have been:
Myhill
Dawson (RB)
Chester (CB)
Lescott (CB)
Brunt (LB)
Fletcher (CM)
Yacob (CM)
Morrison (CM)
Macca (LM)
Berahino (RM)
Lambert (CF)
