City Vs Watford (FA Cup) Pre Match Discussion Thread

[Marvin]

It will be a strong team I am sure

Sounds as if mario maybe on the bench as he's back in training now (don't know if he was in training today, or even if there was training - going off interviews which Platt and mancini have given)

--------------Hart
-Zab--Kompany--Lescott--Clichy
--Milner--Barry--Silva--Sinclair
---------Tevez--Dzeko

Maicon or Kolorov back? could give one of the full backs (particularly Zabaleta) a rest.

Mancini said at the weekend that Kolarov might be back in 2 weeks. Don't know about Maicon

ah, hope Zaba and Clichy got plenty in the tank, big couple of weeks we have. Gonna be a big challenge for us to win at Arsenal, we have to.

mancini will probably let a lot of starting XI out for this one

panti

maicon(if fit) kolo nasty rekik(kolarov)

garcia razak

sinclair tevez milner(suarez?)

guidetii

... i go for a 3-0 win(can someone tell me a Tv program who take live this one?)

Razak and Kolo are off the the ACoN mate

 

[MC ID]

The only problem I have is regarding the fullbacks, we are light in the area because of Injuries so I think we should play Kolo and Rekik just to be save as an injury to either clichy or zabs would put us in a dire situation.

As far as midfield/strikers goes i'm unsure, I'd like to see Sinclair get more than 5 minutes to show what he can do and Guidetti might be ready for a cap.

When do we loose Yaya?

Pretty sure Yaya, Kolo and Razak are all out now until they return
I may be wrong though

We are so limited in defense at the moment, especially at fullback position.

I want to see Zabaleta and Clichy rested for Arsenal as they have been worked hard over the festive period, but who do we replace them with?

Mancini will have to make some gambles for this game.

Plus, we need to be winning all our ties first time, our FA Cup winning year saw us have too many replays in my opinion.

there is 8 days rest between Watford and Arsenal, fatigue should not be a problem!

 

[WNRH]

Silva will not play, with Nasri, Yaya and Aguero out v Arsenal there is no way he will be risked.

Same with Barry. Yaya, Kolo and Razak will all play before going off to the ACON. Zabaleta and Clichy need a break.
