CITY v The Rags - F.A Cup Semi-Final Official Match Thread

[Freestyler]

I used to make these official match threads every week and we kept winning, so i've come back to hopefully bring us some luck and keep the winning streak up!

Not much to say really, it's a Derby anything can happen. United are there for the taking i feel, no one has the bollocks to go out and hit them hard.

Tevez more than likely will be out, shrek out, balanced it right out.

If we go their to defend and lose i feel Mancini will lose the fanbase, we need to go with a balanced side, most important with width in the team and creativity across the pitch with a strong midfield presence.

Balotelli looks uninterested, we can't afford passengers in this team for a game like this, as follows my team based on Richards fully fit and Tevez unfit.

----------------------Hart

Richards-----Kompany-----Lescott-----Pab Zab

--------------Y.Toure---De Jong

-------Johnson-------Milner------------Silva

----------------------Dzeko

I believe the team above has the ability to beat the scum.

Where did the LFC match thread go?

Well Dzeko is allways doing good against the Rags, he should play.

But if i take a look at Yayas performance last, hmm cant guess how many times he moved.

De Jong must play, everything other is a setup thing.

---SWP---------------------Silva-----------------------Johnson-----

------------------------------Dzeko---------------------------------

I would expect some Service there,

SWP right footed - direct crossing
AJ left footed - direct crossing

Logic good, Setup risky.

Please no Milner.

Wait, Balotelli is a passenger that we can't afford yet Dzeko and Toure are fine to start? Farce. Balotelli and Johnson were the only ones interested in going forward until Silva came on. He also made some excellent runs in behind only for Dzeko or Barry to fall over the ball.

Boyata needs to sit this one out, there's no point playing him unless we absolutely have to. I'd like to see

-------Johnson-------Silva------------Kolarov
