Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini is pleased with his team’s performance as they ended Everton’s 7-match unbeaten streak defeating them 3-1 with goals coming from Alvaro Negredo,Sergio Aguero and an own-goal from The Toffees goalie Tim Howard.

Pellegrini spoke after his team’s comfortable victory and said, “I’m very pleased for a lot of things.

“We played the only unbeaten team in the league and they played very well with the ball so it wasn’t an easy match today.

“Last Wednesday had a mental and physical consequence, so I’m very pleased with the character we showed today.”

He was asked about the penalty awarded by referee Jonathan Moss for Seamus Coleman’s tug on Zabaleta to which he replied : “I never talk about referees but I’m absolutely sure that the difference between Manchester City and Everton today was not the referee,” stated the Chilean national.
