Nottingham Forest (A) - Sat 18th Feb, 15:00 | Pre-Match Thread

Very good team selection.

Confident, as we all should be.

An early goal would be nice to settle us down.

Expecting Phil to be trying to prove his worth again.

On paper we should do em'. If that team can't beat Forest we don't deserve shit. Mind you, they aren't that bad at home - Played 11, W5, D3, L3, For 14, Against 12. So hardly prolific goal scorers at just over one goal per game, but also only conceded about 1 per game average.

If we can get 2 or 3 up, it should be doable on the face of it.

COYB.

The Boys in Blue never give in. They fight to the end. Come on City, come on City. Show ‘em lads, show ‘em all. Especially the Notty lot, especially the blind, biased and stupid media lot.

Manchester City, the best team in the land and all the world.

Go for it everyone.

Chapess

Never underestimate Forest at home, good record in there. Need to turn up to beat them for good.

Chapess

He must have saved up for a sex change then.

Need to put these to the sword now and send a message. It's demoralising to scrape a dramatic last minute win just to immediately be shunted back into second with ease. They'll eventually fatigue from that.

Don't worry about it, that lot won't win the league. They're struggling already.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Over to us. Time for some deforestation

Another thing we've got to be wary of is timewasting

 

[Paul1970]

Our only LB for Champions League / Wednesday, so not such a surprise … ?

Who is playing left back ? Surely not silva again.

Eccles is a woman !

 

[TheBlueCat]

If Foden performs like he can, we will win comfortably today.

 

[I'm Blue]

Just do our bit and turn up and I’ll be happy

Wait im going to report to Stones now.

 

[PragueBlue]

Not sure he'll actually be playing LB but think Bernardo will be covering that position as and when needed.

 

[Fred_Quimby]

Really enjoying listening to Martin O'Niell on City+

 

[Brad mcfc]

Come on city. 3 points please!

 

[Paul1970]

Foden might be left back

Why don’t we just buy a fucking left back because it will cost us big ganes and even today it will put us under pressure

I don't think Eddie will time waste a lot today tbf

FFS the arse won so we need the 3 points

No we don't. Stop flapping and getting carried away with the media hype. There are 45 points to play for yet and the cracks are already starting to show at Arsenal.

It was less than 2 weeks ago when half you peeps were flapping after the loss at Spurs, saying we're out of it. Who to you expect to hold their nerve for the rest of the season, the team who have won the title 4 times out of the last 5 seasons, or the team that dropped 7 out of the last 9 points last season to fail to claim a CL place?
