City vs Aston Villa Pre Match Thread

At least we can count on the Etihad to be rocking lol.

Sniff?

Agreed. One of our quiet neighbours visiting, methinks.

Villa will play like they've always played at City; sit deep and use Agbonlahor on the break.

Considering the successes Stoke, Burnley and Hull have had at the Etihad, Villa will take great heart in this working again. Added to that, they can hit Benteke with any free kick they win in our half and any corner, and with our flakiness here as well as flakiness at defending the counter, we have to take this game seriously.

Yep, we'll have 70% possession and yep we'll have 20 shots, but an early goal for City will kill this tie dead.

Is Silva fit?
Whats the story on Bony would like to see him come on rather than Dzeko.

Hope Aguero is fit. Think he twisted his ankle on Sunday but hopefully he'll recover ok

Yeah cos pointing out how dead the atmosphere is automatically makes me a United fan, good logic.

Jovetic what a sick note just as bad as Rocky but gets no stick

Agreed if we can get a decent fee from some mug he needs to go ASAP! Maybe we have a striker curse as Bony who was rarely injured turns up here and is almost straight away on the treatment table!

There's pointing it out and then there's pointing it out with sneering undertones. And then there's United with a capital 'U' rather than the rags, and then there's a low posting count. The 'sniff?' was more than justifiable IMO, regardless of whether it was right or wrong......
