Aston Villa vs. City Pre-Match Discussion Thread

[Bluep*ss]

This is the team when we last played Bayern (Audi Cup)...............

Manchester City:

Pantilimon, Zabaleta, Clichy, Boyata, Kompany, Fernandinho, Barry (Toure 46), Milner, Nasri, Jovetic (Navas 46), Negredo (Dzeko 73)

Unused subs:
Hart, Richards, Kolarov, Lescott, Garcia, Silva, Wright, Rodwell, Sinclair, Aguero

I can see that Hart ,Nasty , playing in place of Pants and Les. Now that Barry has gone the rest picks itself.
We will beat Bayern 2-1

3 - 0

What about this team

You dont need to make fun of me. It was a joke. But in every joke there is usually some true. So in some crazy cases when your are chasing the result or if the opposition is too weak City can play in formation 4 : 3 : 3 ( Negredo - Dzeko - Aguero )

HART

ZABALETA/RICHARDS - KOMPANY - NASTASIC - CLICHY/KOLAROV

FERNANDINHO - YAYA

SILVA / NASRI

NEGREDO - AGUERO
DZEKO

In which case Zabaleta and Kolarov would have to be on their 100 % ( They should run more than they usually DO ) and close the flank and Negredo and Aguero should also try to close it on theirs side. It is unusual/trick formation for special games only.
* IT can be used in games like ( it is 70 min of the game the result is 1:1, you are playing the standard 4 : 4 : 2 formation and ONLY WIN is a good result so the team goes for all or nothing )

THE STANDARD FORMATION for CITY should of course be for me 4 : 4 : 2, with one striker sliightly behind the Centre Forward

Hopefully this will be the start of our away form in the league coming good, despite the recent decent results, lets not forget we were shite in the last two away league games,( I predict it is )
