Have a pint for me today?

Re: City v United pre match thread

4-4-fucking 2....

Jovetic more of an AM than forward IMO.

Yep, he's a bit like Hazard and Bergkamp in that he's a bit of both which makes him a nightmare to mark.
He's been given a start in a big game. I hope he takes the chance and doesn't look back.

Re: City v United pre match thread

I think it'll be something like
Fernando----Yaya------
Navas--Jovetic--Milner
----------Aguero----------

Hope Michael Oliver gets a grip of bog brushes elbows early doors.

Re: City v United pre match thread

Fernando and Yaya in a two-man midfield...now bricking it! It's what a lot of people have dreaded all week. They're going to need to be fucking miles better than they've shown, and somehow find some mobility from somewhere.

I know. It's fucking mental. Fernando is an out and out defensive shield, who doesn't complement Toure at all. I'll be surprised if we don't raped on the counterattack looking at the pace and mobility the rags have gone for. Milner and Navas are gonna have to work like stink today

Both Milner and Navas wil cover a lot of ground today and if jovetic plays behind he will be hard to pick up
Their defence is shite.

Re: City v United pre match thread

Why Fernando gets picked over Fernandinho esp in 2 man midfield. Just don't get it.

I think pellers mighy surprise everyone and go back to 4 2 3 1 miner and fernando holding yaya back to where he used to play further forward with navas and jovetic either side , bit like mancinis old tactics

Re: City v United pre match thread

At least we have got Dedryck on the bench....

 

[hilts]

Re: City v United pre match thread

he could match up with the rags

--------------nando---------------

---------toure-----------milner-----

---navas-----------------------jovetic-

let's see

Re: City v United pre match thread

Milner and Navas drop back plenty. It should help out tremendously in defence.

Re: City v United pre match thread

Guys, someone please do post the team line up.

What's the point? We're going to lose.



go on then;

Thats a good team, hope Jovetic is playing as an AM, rather than a second striker.

This spells out clear as day that we have not improved enough in the summer just like 2 years ago. I'm a little worried now! Could've done with Lampard fit...

 

[mastermind]

Re: City v United pre match thread

its the team i predicted.

it is now up the players to put a shift in .. now is the time for some them to show their value ..

lets do this.

 

[neel]

Re: City v United pre match thread

No game changers on bench...Could have done with lampard.

Wouldn't mind a tenner for every kilometre Jimbo is likely to run today. Say wht you like about him, he never gives less than 100%. He'll be vital today, covering when Yaya is ambling back.

 

[Paulpowersleftfoot]

Re: City v United pre match thread

Hart
Zabaleta kompany Demichellis Kolorov
Yaya Fernando
Navas Jovetic Milner
Aguero

Navas and milner to double up with the fullbacks

 

[FantasyIreland]

Re: City v United pre match thread

Fernandinho for Navas and id have been far more confident.

Re: City v United pre match thread

CMON city

Re: City v United pre match thread

The annoying thing is that if only pellers would play both ferns with yaya in front then everyone would be so much calmer.

 

[buckshot]

Re: City v United pre match thread

I'm not a fan of the 4-4-2 but I'm clinging to the fact that City seem to use derbies as a springboard. I'll be hoping they do the same today and pull their heads out of their Assad and batter them.
