Ha ha. One of the greatest players ever for City and even at this stage of his career is far better than any guy they can field. Hope he plays and scores.

Even when he was at his peak he had a big flaw to his game, and it was one of the reasons we took so long to establish ourselves in the Champions League: people ran past him over 3 yards. Once he got going he was like a runaway wardrobe but against quick feet he would put us under big pressure. Now his legs have gone that problem, which was significant then, has become magnified even more, rendering him utterly ineffective. Also, when he's not feeling confident he is a safe passer, and that slow us right down when he keeps knocking it back to the centre half instead of breaking the lines with forward passing.

Legend but now ready to go out to pasture.... he should be nowhere near the starting 11 judging by Bristol's pace and pressing...
 
Genuinely think if Yaya plays then we will struggle tonight. He's just not got the legs anymore, they will be all over him tonight.
 
Think we're going weak for this one! On the train and got Shaun Goater sat across from me in his tracksuit so looks like we're going with age and experience for this one ;)

It is crucial we have Silva or De Bruyne play tonight and the other against Cardiff unless we play both. They control the game and create chances and for me it does not really matter too much on the rest of the lineup as long as we have one of them involved. Tonight I would play De Bruyne as Bristol City will come at us and he can help pick them off.
