Pre Match Thread | Palace v City

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Juventus really is taking over Pelles thinking

Still good enough to win.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

according to radio manchester Sterling has done his hamstring , (well done agent Woy and engerland) , glad we have a good squad to cover for zabs,clichy,merlin,sterling,delph,fernando absences imagine taking 6 players from chelski , arsenal or the rags squad , they would be f*cked.

Tbf this could have happened in training with city .

Hope to see Roberts play today

 

[BucksBlue]

Palace will hopefully be rethinking their tactical plan re stopping Sterling.
Front foot forward ....come on Wilf!
Nasri must step up big time today.
Yaya to score first.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

10 league wins on the bounce after ditching 442.

"I know, let's play 442 at Palace..."

Whaaaaaat???

Please don't get over-run City. So nervous now.

Every man and his dog knows you're nervous. Why don't you post it in the muffin or barm thread as well.

Slight problem according to the club, its a precautionary move sure it would have been great for him to play but what can we do

 

[SiMCFC]

I don't see us creating enough with Silva and Sterling missing but hopefully Nasri and Navas step up, maybe De Bruyne will get half an hour

 

[Sergio Picasso Aguero]

Would be 11 points ahead of chelsea if we win, dreamland.

 

[ono]

Is a bit of a risk going 4-4-2 but seems to be forced. Palace away probably isn't the game to introduce De Bruyne when we have a physical player like Bony waiting in the wings.

Could have done with Sterling's pace and energy on the flank really seems as Palace are great out wide. Nasri playing wide worries me today.

Will do my moaning at 5pm if it doesn't work anyway. Let's give Pellers the benefit of the doubt for now. Playing Bony could be a masterstroke. If his strength can occupy Dann and Hangelaand, it could free up Kun.

Nasri will play wank and he'll throw Kev on

 

[vuadabanh000]

we just played 4-4-2 with watford match at second half and won .

 

[Chi-town blues]

Naive from pelle...Bony not full fit and kun just back
from international duty.

 

[SWP's back]

If it turns out to be a masterstroke I'll be eating humble pie and absolutely buzzing because of it.

I just think the quote that 'those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.' is a prescient one. . .

Like premature flapping?

 

[Silva_Spell]

Really? Who do we have to replace Sterling with? As the way I see it we were just going to do a straight swap between Nasri and Silva, but Sterling has got injured and we have no other wingers fit and available.

We bought one for a few quid recently.

 

[deano ou812]

Yeah, International football ruining football since we had international players!

Hahaha of course...

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Like premature flapping?

Touche, SWP. Touche.

Can you explain how?

 

[wattle]

Hart
Sagna Vinny Mangala Kolerov
Yaya Fern
Navas Kun Nasi
Wilf

Where's this 442 you talk about????

 

[cookster]

Why revert back to 4-4-2.

Pelle is clearly resting Sterling and Silva. Hope the Tinkerman don't fuck it up.

 

[super_city_si]

Left side is going to be wide open.
