3rd Place (Merged)

Re: We can avoid the play offs.

Both teams will be very tired on Tuesday. We can bring in Dzeko, Milner, Zabaleta & Johnson to give us an energy boost. Stoke dont have that luxury, or would have to bring in inferior players. Its an advantage we should make the most of.

Exactly.
It's also about making the whole squad feel part of the campaign victory and sharing the glory.

Re: We can avoid the play offs.

We should bring in a few for the Stoke game eg. Dzeko, Johnson, Zabaleta and Milner because Stoke will be without Etherington and possibly Pennant and Huth and down in spirits, then against Bolton we can have the full team out there fully fit.

3rd place

3rd place is ours for taking! Would prefer not to go through the qualifying stages if helped. Your thoughts?

Re: We can avoid the play offs.

wonder the team for Tuesday now. I'd have thought NDJ, Kompany, Silva, Tevez, Yaya, Hart all to be rested. Maybe they still will be...

you are obviously joking but it's hard to tell with some people on here

no mate I'm not joking. Obviously all 6 won't be rested but you would be surprised if some were on the bench? Silva is carrying a small injury according to latest training report, Tevez not close to 100%, and Yaya couldn't even get back to defend in the last minute holding onto a lead in the Cup.

I think there will be minimum 4 changes on Tuesday

Two huge games for us so I doubt there will be two many changes tbh, these two games have become very important all of a sudden.
I just hope Tevez is fit as I've got £20 on him at 12/1 to be the top Premierleague goalscorer

In our own hands now. Win the next two and we're there.

Sorry mate got to disagree full team as per saturday barring injuries, no rotation shit, lets get the win don't want to fuck up at our place. The players can have a rest for 5 fucking weeks after Bolton game full on is what |I am hoping for.

Re: We can avoid the play offs.

I think we'll beat Stoke easily on Tuesday. We'll be playing loose and confident and have quality rested players inserted into the lineup like Milner, AJ, Dzeko and SWP.

Their spirits will be down a bit and we will be pushing hard for the win to get 3rd.

I say 3 - 0 City

Re: We can avoid the play offs.

If Barca beat United and we get 3rd, surely caps off just about the perfect season for us?
