City Vs Leeds (Fa Cup) Pre match discussion thread

I would of liked to have seen Rodwell over Garcia but besides that it's a strong battling team that should win this game quite easily if the players bother to turn up this time.

Not the strongest as I'd give Sinclair a run out and Mancini starts Pantilimon in the cups but that's what I would go with.

Too defensive tactics.

You can't particularly tell tactics from a formation, too much. Formations are only really important when defending; when attacking formations go out of the window (or do with the best teams) and movement and attacking of players is fluid and can be much more attack minded than the original formation suggests. For example, here^, Clichy Yaya Milner Zaba can all break forward at any time and more than just one of them, at times all of them.

Plus Mancini has always had his best results and performances with 4231.


Just parked up, heading to the ground in a sec...can't wait for this, the FA Cup is my favourite competition! COME ON CITY!

Some real big changes eh? The papers once again proved they're full of shit.

Sinclair probably the most pointless transfer ever? It's an embarrassment for the whole club that he was bought.

Quelle surprise

Sinclair for Silva wouldn't have hurt either.

 

[blundellbluemoon]

Hart, Lescott, Clichy, Maicon, Rodwell, Nasri, Dzeko SUBS
