City Vs Stoke Pre match Discussion Thread

Can see Silva limping off from this one. Stoke always seem to find one moment of unexpected quality let's hope we get 3 or 4.

really??

Thought the same bud..strange comment from NQC tbh.( when read as one sentance)

Perhaps he meant 'expected thuggery'

They've got their Goal of the Season out of the way. Amazing cannon of a shot from Cameron Jerome

Listed it a couple of pages back, it seems Stoke score far more excellent goals than you can expect, although it might have been swayed by seeing Jeromes on motd. Totally expect the thuggery in much greater quantity though. Still can't get over Huth stamping on Suarez chest and Pulis acting like it served him right for diving.

It can sound as if stoke could be quality for getting silva to limp off..depending on how advanced hangover is ;)

Yeah I guess, that's definitely not what was intended, the perils of typing it out on a phone. Don't trust Stoke to play fairly or the ref to protect us, would love to see Garcia put himself about a bit, was excellent at the Britannia.

Stoke will be thugs,they know nowt else.

Hopefully we have acquired the habit fo an early goal.

If we bang one in the first 15 we will force them to give us space in the right areas and open them up. Not as easy as last year but we have no choice but to win and the boys know that.

Either way its a comfortable win or a hard fought win if we dont score early.

Forza City

Getting early goals has been our achilles heel this season.
no parking the bus if we score early.

Hart, Kolo, Komps, Lescott, Clichy, Milner, Barry, Yaya, Silva, Tevez, Dzeko.

Extra height and physical presence of Kolo, Lescott and Dzeko needed against Stoke. Maybe Garcia in for Barry if Gaz needs a rest although he was awesome v Norwich.

Lescott in the back line, ref to give City an early penalty for Shawcross playiing rugby, Pulis sent to the stands for wearing that stupid cap, then 4-0.
