Originally posted by silvertop Did you watch their game against Brighton? Deserved to win but 1-0 was fair and with Cahill hopefully teaming up with tomkins no reason we can't do another 0-0 and neutrals whining at how dull we make a game. Cant see us scoring though unless andros decides to score another worldie Or Citeh press too high and we break away like we did in both the recent trips to the Etihad. As Leicester showed early doors, the way to beat Citeh is to break their press and go at them. Eze could do that.

Originally posted by doombear So you reckon Hodgson will play Batshuayi, do you? Benteke surely. Our strikes limited to the odd hoof in his general direction. Big Ben likely to win many aerial battles and nod on to... The man city defence.

They could put out a second eleven and still compete and us with a whole 3 days off. To me it's whether we compete and hold them or they score early . . . 0-0 if we play well and 4-0 if we don't. Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

Originally posted by doombear So you reckon Hodgson will play Batshuayi, do you? I think he will play Tekkers up front with Wilf playing just behind. If Roy let’s Eze roam about that could unsettle City. Last night against Arsenal Eze really moved well through midfield, it’s a shame Jeff Schlupp is out injured because he gives us that extra drive. Not sure why Bats isn’t getting a look in at the moment?

Lawro had us down to lose 2-0 and we got a point against " high flying" Arse. Predictably,he has got us down for a 3-0 drubbing against Man C. We could still get an unlikely point as they struggled against Brighton and we have done well at their place past two seasons.

We are always going to be relying on a bit of luck and City having an off day, as at their best we don't have much of a chance. Key will be our ability to put out the same back four again. That has been key to our recent defensive improvement. The combination of Tekkers (in current form), Wilf and Eze will always give us chances on the break. I'm going for the unlikely and a 2-1 win with Tomkins and Tekkers to score.

I will predict we might be lucky and get a draw so as to continue our good trips to Manchester (both clubs).

Our defending has been letting us down, hopefully we will continue our recent performances with it and move the ball forward a little quicker when we have the opportunity, but the odds are stacked against us in this game considering our passing under pressure isn't conducive to good attacks 2-2.

Originally posted by PalazioVecchio City are a hundred times better than Arsenal. City destroyed ManUre last week in the cup. i only hope we do better than the Liverpool annihilation. 3-0 City. Even Palace looked better than Arsenal! Possibly not a case of sheep wandering into a den of wolves but once again, we'll be disadvantaged by our inability to score. Denial is not just a river in Egypt
