nice to see a bit of optimism in the pre match thread for a change

Too many flappers. I always think we are going to win whoever we play. I can't remember when a team outplayed us, it must be years.

Wow @BringBackSwales i see what you meant earlier!!
Come on folks glass half full time!! Let’s get back the City spirit please. I’ll tell you where I’m not even thinking of going tonight …the match day thread!! They’ll be having lions and tigers in there not kittens tonight!

WE ARE CITY WE NEVER GIVE IN. WHY? BECAUSE BOTH PLAYERS AND FANS HAVE A BACKBONE!!


Sorry to shout but that’s me! Live with it. Never do City down. :-) :-)

Good to see Nigel De Jong as part of punditry team.

He only scored 1 goal in 107 games for us, which game was it?

I'm almost certain that's wrong, I remember him scoring twice.

A dip into the transfer market in January may be on the cards?

I’d prefer a bomb from the 15m board

Still saw doom and gloomer just like any other day in the thread.

I don’t think they realise just how deep and strong our squad is. They see a few first team players out and that’s that. Panic.

This is no longer the era when we were shit ffs.

He's shit and not good enough for us.

Newcastle ripped him to shreds last year and they had nothing up front.

He jumps in because he doesn't trust his pace.

Best asset is his heading from our corners.

He is definitely faster than dias and Laporte

Yeah not our strongest lineup but that entire XI plus part of the bench would walk into Villas side. Hopefully we build a comfortable lead and get Palmer, McAtee, etc a runout.
