Juventus away 25th November - pre match thread

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Toure should be nowhere near that team. Never mind fucking Captain.

Come on City!

This 100%

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

praying for no more injuries,we are threadbare

Not confident at all

You never are, especially this close to kick off ;-)

Perhaps you should change your username then :)

Ha! Fair point. My username is actually my old nickname at 5 a side.

Lets put last week behind us and wipe the slate clean. Feel free to slag him again after the match if he is abysmal

I hope he plays a blinder so I don't have to slag him off. But Saturday night's performance was the very opposite of a captain's performance!

 

[Marvin]

Toure has got Feernandinho and Fernando to do his running. So he had better produce when he is on the ball. He did in the home game to be fair. Made our goal. He's still good when he has the ball.

Surprised to see Clichy in for Kolarov but it's good to see him back.

 

[Decepticon]

I'm optimistic c'mon City!

I agree he was poor Saturday, but this is a new game. Let's hope the board is full of praise for him after the game

Has this starting eleven seen the light of day, or evening, before?

 

[George Hannah]

Zero match time for Clichy this season but straight in with Kolarov on the bench. Either a fitness doubt or Manuel is seriously unhappy with Aleks - "big game for Clichy " he's just said and that's an understatement, it's a big decision for the manager too.

 

[abu13]

Just hope we keep the score down to a reasonable level! Only at city could we have a top class squad with a shit load of them injured!

We will win this tonight and top the group, i can feel it :)

 

[mosssideblue]

This 100%

Is your "This 100%" just applicable to Yaya or everyone else who was crap on Saturday. If the latter, we would have to kit the tea lady out to make the numbers up.

Kolorov isn't good enough so I'm happy with this change. He has been training for weeks now.

He also said he needs game time,bit strange throwing him straight in with possible fitness issues being only back from injury....

Trust me mate I would love that and be delighted to be wrong!! Imagine us with a fit vinny and Merlin though? Our injuries are shambolic this season!

 

[aguero93:20]

Can we just put Clichy down if he doesn't perform?

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Those 0-0's at Villa and the rags; I'd take those tonight.

Agreed Colin, can only see another defeat though and after our shopping in the summer, never thought I would be saying that this season!

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Just had the first of several FergieMints. They didn't work Saturday, but perhaps I didn't have enough of them!

This competition leaves me somewhat cold,never get nervous for these games

 

[mosssideblue]

Win win for me. Kolo's performances were starting to drop off (probably knackered) and Gael will want to stake a claim for more games.

 

[jimharri]

Apart from the missing Vinnie and Merlin, that's a pretty decent line up. For me, there isn't a lot between Gael and AK. That being said, I'd take the draw right now.
