City Vs Spurs Pre Match Discussion thread

Dzeko played well against Wigan and deserves to keep his place. Balotelli is coming back from injury so will probably be on the bench for this one.

I agree with you. Also, the last thing we want is another red card early doors.

Hopefully they'll have a hard time adjusting to playing without Adebayor. Richards and Lescott were very good in this game last season and they may need to be again as without Toure(s) and Kompany I could see us letting Spurs have most of the possession.

This is a whopper of a game!! Win and we go 8 points ahead of Spurs. We have lost our last two games at home albeit they were not league games. Time to get the show back on the road and beat Spurs. We will have to be wary of them on the counter attack and I can`t see us losing. Come on City!

What was the starting eleven against them at WHL earlier this season?

why is he a slut

Surely this game is too big for Savic to start? Our defence at mo is the only issue and a point would be better than none? Would defo start Micah at cb at pablo at rb which would make us more solid and Pablo will still get forward!

Leave Balo on bench and bring on if required or for a 10min runout for a bit of match time before Wednesday. Think that team above is the strongest we have at mo.

I think Spurs will either win it by a goal or two or we'll win it by a goal but we'll have a huge slice of luck/jammiest decision in our favour/against Spurs just so people can go "haha I told you so" at the users from the buzzer1 school of conspiracy theorists.

You think we could lose by 2 mate? Could see a 1-0 or 2-1 to spurs to be honest but not beaten by 2 at home! There attack and midfield against our defence worries me today! :-( need Milner,Barry,silva and most certainly nasri to step up to the plate today. Feel like I did for the ot derby at mo so hopefully get the same out come!! A point would do but think we are due a good performance and hopefully a big game like this can get us firing again!! Huge huge game this!! :-s

More nervous than Derby day!

Dunno why, but im a nervous wreck this morning about todays game. Hardly slept a wink & cant stomach any breakfast (yet). I honestly believe that three points against the spuds this afternoon will be the final spark we need to kick on and take the title.

C'mon Blues!
