Seems no-one is very confident about this game,me neither

Some of us aren't waving the white flag just yet.

I am mate, think Arsenal will just be to quick for our backline, offered a point now I'd snap your hand off but I see them just tearing us a new one, confident chap aren't I?, :-))

If we defend deeper with a midfield three of Yaya/Delph and Fernandinho with Silva and Sterling either side and Aguero up front for 60 minutes I think we've got enough to make them more concerned with us than we are them.
That would leave strong options from the bench if things need to change.
It obviously all comes down to wherever or not the players show up or not - if they do its a win for me.

For the first time ever I'll deliberately give this a miss on the tele'.
Instead I'm going to hide in the cupboard and come out at full time and look at the number of posts in the match day thread.
If it's getting up towards 100 or beyond I know we've got beat, anything less than say 70 we may have drawn or even better won.

I hate our defence its fucking bobbins,it lets us down every week,
If it was'nt for them we'd piss this league.

Arsenal and Leicester tie's would be season defining IMO. If we are able to beat them, then we will go into the second half of the season extremely high on confidence, if we loose then we would constantly be doubting ourselves.

I've purposely booked star wars tickets so I miss the match. I've only missed watching city either live or on TV about 5 times in the last 10 years, usually coz I can't stand the stress. We ALWAYS win when I do this. Usually against United. I'm fine at the games but on TV is a killer! So when we win on Monday I'm taking the credit ;-)

Dreading this one, our record at the other big teams even when we've been playing well has been pretty disappointing so it makes me fearful when their confidence is up and our form is a bit iffy. Thing is, we are almost back to full strength if Kun starts so we can't really use the injury thing as an excuse if we lose. We do have the ability to go there and win, play like we did at Sevilla and we will.

I think we'll win.......losses this season have all come before/straight after a CL game. Now's the time to crack on :)
