City Vs Everton Pre Match Discussion Thread

Happy with the team, although I think The Pants man should've come in for Joe.

This is a huge challenge for Lescott, assuming he's assigned Lukaku. He had a torrid time of it at the end of last year, so he can't be going into this ignorant of what to expect.

Joes's hair is looking good today.

But Howard looks a cock with that beard!

Interesting team selection, luckily he has seen sense and is starting Negredo ahead of Edin...does the team selection indicate a change in formation?

 

[Benarbia]

Clearly a little worried about Everton our Manuel thought he may go a little more attacking but seems he's still a little shell shocked from midweek

Guessing it's yet another 4-4-2 Milner and Silva (being wasted) on the wings.

This.

Not convinced this will end well.

Can't understand why we stick to 4-4-2. Our last 2 managers are do stubborn

In fairness to Bobby he won the title with one formation then tried to reshape the team into something opponents didn't have sussed (3-5-2) but the players failed to take it up. Even then he switched between 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3 and 4-2-2-2.

Yet now in possession we pretty much play 3-5-2 with the left mid tucking in and the lb coming forwards.

Given this was posted before Jovetic was said to be unavailable, do I win?

I would say so.

 

[DruntBlunt]

Negredo first scorer and City win 3-1@46. C'mon you Blues!

 

[welsh_andy]

lol@ yaya we had one bad day, what was villa then, a so so day. but seriously i expected us to win this after weds battering,. time for lessy to stand up and be counted

Milner runs around lot and shows no lack of effort but he offers little else.

i found HD stream at <a class="postlink" href="http://thefirstrow.biz/soccer/manchester-city-everton-frs9fa57" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://thefirstrow.biz/soccer/mancheste ... n-frs9fa57</a> or check <a class="postlink" href="http://www.firstrow.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.firstrow.org/</a> there are also Everton streams.

 

[L'hommeMarseilles]

I must admit, I feel disappointed in Nasri not starting. The man had a month where he was probably our best player. Then one not so good game against Bayern and gets dropped???? We seem to forget how shit Milner was a week ago against Villa, everyone on bluemoon were saying he doesn't deserve to play for a championship side, and now he is starting??? Disappointed to say the least.

Try actually watching him for a change and you may be surprised.

 

[kupest]

Coleman and Mirallas will own us on the left. Kolarov and Silva means extra work for Lescott on the left hand side of the field.
