Whatever happens today City are 7-4 favourites already to win the PL next season according to the odds.

Arsenal and Chelsea 9-2, United are 7-1 and the current champions 25-1 to repeat!

So you can at least take heart from that.
No pressure on Pep whatsoever.

When United beat us in the pot noodle cup (or whatever it's called preseason game in China. Rags put out a full team, we play kids) he'll be sacked the next day according to our press.

Back on topic, as I've given my ticket to a mate I hope this guarantees the performance of the season.
 
There are always a range of different opinions amongst fans of any club. Those calling for the head of Wenger are very much in the minority. Just like those City fans wanting MP to stay or Utd fans wanting LVG to stay.
There's a "be careful what you wish for" feeling around this whole Arsene thing, if you ask me.
 
He doesn't play well against Arsenal anyway.

No Nasri, No Silva - who will stop us passing backwards and sideways for 90 mins like in Madrid?

Someone has to or Aguero will be isolated again and get more and more frustrated like he did on Wednesday.
 
but honestly guys, do we really need yaya today.?. if no,whose gonna be the creative spark we need
 
today of all days, we just cant afford the luxury of watching players strolling on the pitch as though theyve got lots of boils on their axx
 
I dunno mate, he's the only player other than Silva who actually creates anything. Where's the assist coming from if Yaya doesn't play? Navas, Sagna, Clichy? (Stiffles laughter). KDB is a great finisher, but hasn't created much. Nasri, great at keeping possession and slowing the play down. Fernandino and Fernando never create anything.

We've been hideously short on goalscoring opportunities lately, haven't we.

We have mate but with De Bruyne central and Nasri to the left we will create enough to win the game. With Yaya walking around in the middle of the park then we will b overrun because Pellers can't or doesn't have the right players to control the midfield so we need tenacious hardworking players to keep us in the game. Personally I'd go with this side:

Hart
Sagna Otamendi Mangala Clichy
Fernando Dinho
Navas De Bruyne Nasri
Aguero

Feel harsh on Nacho but I don't think this is the game for 4-4-2.
 
We needed a different approach by now, but unfortunately we won't have one. Wenger knows who's injured and how exactly we are going to play. So predictable it's untrue. Even playing Sterling on the right would freshen it up, but no, Navas must play there. The only hope we have is that all the players put a shift in. It has happened this season, but nowhere near enough.
He won't be able to name a single arsenal player . But is a nice day and they are flakey like us so come in city. If we score first then we will win....
