Manchester City vs Liverpool pre-match thread

[jimharri]

I'd gladly take a draw right now. Suarez or Sturridge against DeMichelis (even allowing for his recent upturn in form) doesn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Absolutely can't lose this, team needs to turn up

We have to pack the midfeld and play a counter attacking game in my opinion ,give them nothing for half an hour and take it from there.

I am hoping for a draw as I can't see us getting a win, either way it's lose or bust in my opinion as the momentum Liverpool would get from beating us would make them unstoppable for the remainder of the season in my opinion.

Hart
Zab
Komps
Demichelis
Clichy

Yaya
Fernandhino
Milner

Silva
Negredo
Nasri

I'd take dzeko to start he's scoring at the min

They just seem so confident, you could say over confident.

And I think that may suit us just fine.

Zaba---Kompany--Demichellis---Clichy

------------Milner----Fernandinho

--Silva-----------Yaya---------------Nasri

------------------Aguerooooooooooooo


Garcia is too immobile to deal with the midfield runners of Sterling/Coutinho, Henderson so I'd think about playing Milner there instead

Biggest mistake we could make is thinking we have time to settle into the game,liverpool will go for the throat from the first minute
we must be ready from the off,if we let a goal in early it will be very difficult

 

[Andouble]

I'd like us to adopt a defensive shape and try to go for the counter.

Hart

Zaba MD VK Clichy

Garcia Fernandinho

Nasri Yaya Silva

Aguero

yep

 

[JULES]

I,m confident our quality will be good enough to get a result
