City Vs Leicester Pre Match Thread

[waspish]

We know the script to these games now and so do the players and management! Team parks the bus we play slow lethargic football which is so easy to defend!

Think we'll see a response tomorrow. Fucking hope so anyway, as I'd rather not think about the alternative.

Get the feeling it will be a flat game with a flat atmosphere. The key will be to score as early as possible before the crowd gets restless and we start being rash.

Leicester will likely have the classic approach coming here, 8/9 men behind the ball consistently.

They'll have a go at our porous midfield and we'll attack so slowly that they'll saunter back into position. This is different to parking the bus.

This to me feels like the WBA home game from 2012 just got beat by Arsenal and United were pulling away, it was a flat atmosphere to start with and a scrappy game. Then we heard Wigan had scored and the whole place seemed to lift, we just need a kick start and I am hoping this game is it.

This will be a 2-2 draw if it follows the pattern of last year's Anfield game. City will score first then lose the plot and find a dramatic equaliser with 93 mins on the clock. City will then win every other game till the end of the season.

We had that last week against Newcastle. We had just seen Chelsea draw and United lose in the 3pm kick offs.

Should I stay at home ? it's going to be a cold night.

I hate to say this but the guy with the red pen at Muen will have a field day circling all those empty seats in the Family stand -
midweek fixture, school day after, bottom of the league opposition, and disappointing result at Anfield. Could be our lowest gate of the season?
.i.e ticket holders not being bothered to turn up.

it is a shame they are not doing the free upgrade to adult from child ticket for this game, like they did a season or so ago. I understand why they don't do it all the time, but I think this game is perfect for it.

My team for Leicester would be: Hart, Clichy, Demichellis, Mangala, Sagna, Milner, Fernando, Yaya, Navas, Bony, Dzeko.

I know it's weird selection with a lot of changes but my logiq here is - let's see which of these players are ready to stuck-in and really put up a fight in the remaining games.

If this team can't break Leicester - bring on Aguero and Silva.

CRAZY TALKING!!
