City Vs Arsenal Pre match Discussion Thread

Worried about their midfield. They will get chances.

Yes. I'm currently having kittens thinking about what Ozil will do with the space. Really wish Pellegrini had gone with one up top. For this to work I think we need to blow them away in the first 30 minutes.

Don't fix what's not broken.
We always start with 2 upfront, this our winning tactic at home this season, no need to ease their CB's work with only one man to mark.
Have faith.

Would have picked Lescott vs Giroud.

Would have played Milner instead of Negredo as well and gone with 1 up top. Arsenal are probably the best team in the PL at keeping possession and have 3 nimble CMs.

Pellegrini's team could blow them away but it's a gamble, not unlike the Munich team at home.

+1

BUT we should be able to pull it off at home... United did and beat Arsenal, we can too. And our players are much better technically than the rags'! Just having Silva makes this formation a little more viable against Arsenal imo. And we're fresher.

Lots of things to be positive about though.
