Re: City v United pre match thread
If Pellegrini insists with going 2 upfront, we will be in for a tough ride, we need to have a strong midfield and Aguero upront, speed is the key, supporting any attacks, and getting back/making sure runners are covered if the move breaks down.
If we play like we did against Chelsea, then we will win, with or without Silva, we have other creative players, Yaya, Jovetic, Milner who can orchestrate moves, watch the previous game where we crushed them 4-1, speed, quick first time balls, movement and anticipation, something that was sadly lacking wednesday.
Utd are suspect at the back ( even more than us) Navas might be the one to open them up, either as a starter, or in the 2nd half when they will be ripe for taking, some direct running into the box should give rewards, as they will be either bamboozled or bring him down for a penalty
It's a derby, we always get up for the derby/big games, and we haven't lost 3 in a row for a long long time.
will not be watching the game as it's the wife's birthday, a day out is on the cards, if she sees me keep checking my phone I will be in trouble! so I'm placing my complete trust and confidence in the team to go out and do the business. 3-1 City.
