Re: Plenty Tickets left v Leicester

Could be our lowest league attendance in quite a few years given reduced capacity and the struggle to sell the last tickets. 43-44,000? I noticed City have taken South Stand level 2, returned by Leicester, off sale. There was huge availability yesterday so they've either given them to schools, miraculously sold them all, or decided to focus on filling other areas. Ticket prices are absurd for a mid-week game against relegation fodder. The club has gotten very greedy and demand this season has been less than a few years ago because of individual ticket prices, despite capacity dropping by a couple of thousand. I remember a game against Norwich I think selling out 4 or 5 weeks in advance in our first title winning season. This season, with the price inflation we've seen since then, the Liverpool home game sold out just 1 or 2 days before the day. Many could be waiting for the new season tickets given the size of the waiting list. Despite price hikes also in season ticket prices, the real value is still there compared to the frequent £45-£55 standalone prices.
 
This game will not be an easy 3 points if I was their manager. They know they need points but be sure that they realize that we aren't really a realistic option for 3 points. Why not just sit back and get a point from the top teams, and maybe hope for a lucky break or mistake. Their manager should know that the real fight is not with us. It is with teams around them, if they want to survive. Here's hoping they are feeling froggy.
 
If he plays two upfront against Barca, he's sure as hell going to play two upfront against Leicester. So I imagine Bony will get his first start with Aguero.

After tonight's results Leicester need to win. No point them playing for a point as they are 7 points off safety.

They'll be dangerous opponents. The worst time to play a team in their position, but at least they should come out of defence.

They will get a beating Marvin... You have been posting some depressing sh*t last few days..
 
I definetlely think it will be 4-4-2 but I will be astonished if he drops Edin after scoring in the past two league games.

I think Manuel will have said to Edin he can have a run in the side but if he doesn't perform Bony takes his place, same with Bony, he will have challenged him to fight for his place.
 
He will probably play a 4-4-2 again and I won't be surprised if we draw or lose again. Leicester will look at what Liverpool did to us and not Newcastle. They will press us and counter, because they know if they sit back like Newcastle did Yaya and Silva can pick them apart. If we can't handle the pressure and lose the ball our defence will again be exploited.

Next to top v bottom and you say a draw or a loss, my god, what's got into some people
 
Hoping to see Mangala, Sagna, Kolarov, Fernandinho back on pitch. Dzeko Aguero Bony Silva Nasri Toure Navas Milner all available. No reason why this should not be 3 or 4 goals for City. Do not be surprised of West Ham close up shop and draw 0-0 with Chelsea. This Wednesday could be our revival for title chase
