Aston Villa V Man City pre match thread.

Pelle not turned up for the Presser so far....over half an hour late according to BBC

Expecting to read the wise words of Manuel Pellegrini? So were we. But it appears the Manchester City boss has been held up as we wait for him to start his pre-match news conference. Perhaps he's still wolfing down his soup and sandwich after training.
Or perhaps he wants to steal the thunder from his great rival Jose Mourinho? The Chelsea boss is expected, providing he turns up on time, to face the media in the next few minutes.

pellegrini should keep them waiting a bit more. press can fuck off

If Jimmy starts we win. If he doesn't we don't. If Fernando is back. Then its time to drop YaYa from the starring line-up as well.

 

[Cobwebcat]

And we are off...an hour late.

Everyone fit other than Nasri who will be 3 more weeks.

Time to drop YaYa then and play fast counter attacking football.

-------------------- Hart
Zab. Kompany, Mangalla Kolaroiv
- Fernandinho Fernando Milner
--------------- Navas Silva
--------------------Dzeko

Aguero on about 60 mins.

its got the potential to be a cracking game tomorrow, villa will come out and go for it so it should be a good open game with plenty of goals, i'm going for 2-4

Something must be seriously wrong if we counter attack against Villa. In EPL we boss the games, not counter attack.

 

[super_city_si]

If we have Fernando, I'd go 4-4-2 against Villa.

----------------------Hart------------------------
Zabba---------Komany----Mangala------Kolarov
Milner---------Fernando--Fernandinho-----Silva
---------------Aguero----Dzeko------------------

Yaya on the bench to come on second half for Aguero

Surely we would want Aguero playing of we want to play on the counter quickly?

I would play that team but with Aguero instead of Edin, and I agree about Yaya, for me it's time for him to be dropped for a while because he is offering the team very little at the moment.

Disagree about Yaya. He's making an effort and with the quality he has, it's only a matter of time before it comes together.

I wish City fans would get off his case.

I'd go with Aguero too

Completely agree. Push him up into the hole and leave the two Fs to do the defensive duties. Given freedom just to attack he'll do his bit.
