Chelsea away - Pre match discussion

[gooner2]

Still have a hunch Vinny will play and Pellers has pulled a fast one.

Komps has trained fully for the last week and was one of the reasons he was kept behind from the Russia trip.

There's no footage of the team training on Inside City this weekend and games of this standing require keeping your opponents guessing.

Sure, the manager could have said Vinny was only 50/50, but by stating a player of such importance is definitely out...

Put it this way, I wouldn't be surprised, and it's not a game Vinny will want to miss out on, even risking a relapse, with very winnable games coming up.

Vinny plays, we win.

I always thought that managers give injury information for betting purposes. I've never heard of a manager saying a player is definitely out, only for him to play. Usually they say he's a "doubt", which gives them wiggle room.

Anyway hopefully we'll have a good game today. I'd wish you luck but I do that every year and we always lose. Maybe I'm a good luck charm for City!

Hope it's a great game and shuts that gooner2 up once n for all.

You don,t need to shut me up. I hope its a great 3-3 draw between the two of you. I think you and chelsea are still our rivals whatever the result today.

At home I'd be extremely confident, away I just never am. Gonna be difficult but if we get it right we'll have a chance.

dont think it will happen but would like to see milner drop in to a 3 man midfield and play one up top,milner for me has not played enough and can only see he wasent involved on wed with this game in mind,also would like to see micah drop in as cd and javi to make way,think the chelsea will come out all guns blazing just hope we weather the storm and build into the game

I don't think that they will come out all guns a blazing. City is the team that Mourinho fears the most. He is going to play it very carefully and conservatively. I think he will be quite happy for us to control the ball in the early stages. The danger for us will be their fast counter attack and being caught out on the break. I hope MP is very mindful of this.

Hart
Micah
Vinny (I think he's fit enough!)
Nasty
Clichy
Yaya
Fernando
Milner
Silva
Nasri
Sergio

I think the extra midfielder could be vital today because if we go to attacking from the off then we could get mullered in midfield. Tough call between the beast and kun but Sergio is on a hot streak and is name alone will make Cahill and the cheat think!! COME ON CITY!!

I'd love to see the faces on the Chelsea players if Vinny's name is in the team sheet.
