More nervous than Derby day!

At the end of this day the worse we'll be is Top of the league it itchy bum time when we play the rags at home with only 3 games to go

Hello you citizens, this is my first post ever:)

I call Dzeko to score today, but I am sure that it could be way harder than last game against spurs...

my prediction city 3-2 spurs

Re: More nervous than Derby day!

Sorry to disagree but I am never more nervous than derby day though God knows I would like to stuff that twitching classess moron's team today!
A defeat would not be the end of the world after all...

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!
Hart
Zabaleta
Clichy
Richards
Lescott
Barry
Milner
Nasri
Silva
Aguero
Dzeko
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.

The same team I chose although I'm not the manager of course.

Just feel that although yes he did play pretty well at Wigan, Savic is a still bit too inexperienced for a game of this nature and we have to play our strongest side. Would much prefer to see Richards at CB and Zaba at RB personally.

That said, is it a good time to be changing things and we don't know how Richards would do there? Oh I don't know!! :)

Savic obviously has something but him and lescott don't look comfortable on the ball and think Micah would add extra strength in a hugely important area in the middle. Zab is more than competent to get forward and add extra width down the right as we know clichy will bomb forward down the left!

Our fans seriously need to grow a pair
They should be fucking shitting themselves, not us!

Unable to view the video here in Dubai but wasn't it 0-0 in August 2010? If Zabaleta plays, we will definitely not lose. That's my contribution.

58 points from a possible 60 at home in the last 20 games and won the last 15. I like that stat it calms me down.

I think he posted a link to the wrong Spurs game.

He probably meant this one.

Re: More nervous than Derby day!

going to be a long long afternoon - would take a shit 0 - 0 draw now - cant see anything other than a Spuds win and having to ensure another media Spuds wankfest

You can't see anything but a spurs win ???, what an unbelievable statement , I'm genuinely shocked by those words we totally butchered them at WHL and we will beat them today, we are better than them full stop, I'm not saying they can't beat us because they can but it's about us and how we play, if we play to our full potential they can't touch us and neither can anyone else in this league.

i think the absemce of Yaya is massive - in my humble opinion when Yaya plays he links well with Silva his range of passing is much better than Milner - DJ or Barry, we keep the ball better and are more creative but crucially he has the ability to go past people and create space for others to exploite.

Without him what i have seen is slow ponderous stuff (Rags game being the exception) in the midfield that is hardlt ripping up trees.

I think the difference will be Bale and Modric - dont matter how good Aguero is unless we create chances for him and this is my worry

Mate your missing my point completely, I get all of your worries but to say you cant see anything but a Spurs win means you give us no chance full stop, that's crazy !! I'm sorry but it just is.

Ha, indeed. I was taking us back to the last time Spurs were better than us ;)
