Hull vs. City Pre Match Discussion

[Blue Hefner]

Just read somewhere we have not won against hull at their ground in 100 years? Got to be bull shit anybody know if true. If so then it going to be a record breaking weekend again.

It would be interesting to know how many ties we have played there in that time. I'm 31 and can only think of 1, that was when (i think) Altidore scored against us about 4 years ago

 

[MSP]

Pantillimon

Zabba - Kompany - Lescott - Kolarov

Milner - Silva - YaYa - Nasri

Dzeko - Negredo

4-4-2 We shouldn't be playing with 5 in the middle against Hull FFS.

We also shouldn't play with 10 as your lineup suggests...

I'd count that again on your place :D

 

[blueincy]

1909 i just read was the last time we won at the KC 4 loses 3 draws since. Well all i have to say to that record it's time it was smashed. I predict a 1 3 score line with Dzeko getting 2.

 

[paulchapo]

We now need to play our strongest 11 for the final 12 matches,injuries permitting.Ya Ya needs to be playing more of a forward role too,we have Garcia,Millner and even Demichelis who can play the holding role,he is wasted staying back.The way our misfiring fit forwards are playing i would rather have him as a centre forward!

 

[simon23]

Im worried as our forwards are not playing well at present and aguero and jovetic are both missing (AGAIN!!!)

Negrado clearly isnt fit and Dzekos form is so up and down you cannt rely on him

Its the midfielders like yaya and nasri who look more like scoring at present

I expect a draw which will be a hammer blow to our season if chelsea manage to get a win at VIlla (which they should)

Maths not a strong point of yours, presumably?

All I'm saying is that if we start with Negredo we mind as well name only 10 men based on his recent form.

Oh dear that's embarrassing just man up and admit a mistake, hah

The season before, we drew 2-2 with Ireland scoring a brace for us.

In 1988/89, we played them on the opening day of the season, dominated the game and got beat 1-0 in the last minute a la Sunderland. The lads in work often say how they still aren't convinced that they managed to blag 3 points that day.

 

[Blue Tooth]

I was speaking to mate of mine an he says we won't beat Hull.

 

[gmckennasell]

as we have only one world class centre back , how about 3 at the back ? HART + ZABS-KOMPS-CLICHY + NASRI--DINHO-YAYA-GARCIA-MERLIN + DZEKO-JOVETIC , play garcia in front of the back 4 , jovetic to play if fit due to negredos loss of form and save aguero for the rags.

Here's a good site: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.11v11.com/teams/hull-city/tab/opposingTeams/opposition/Manchester%20City" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.11v11.com/teams/hull-city/ta ... ter%20City</a><br /><br />-- Fri Mar 14, 2014 5:45 pm --<br /><br />1970 FA Cup last time we won there.

I hope to see a good response from the lads after us going out of 2 cups in the space of a week. Quasimodo will be telling his players to run through brick walls to get a result against us. He was really upset we called him a fat bastard when we met them last, so he's an angry rag with a big fat grudge.<br /><br />-- Fri Mar 14, 2014 6:14 pm --<br /><br />If you see this man at the KC give him a Bell...

Half of the citizens of 'ull look like that!

 

[paulchapo]

We need the spirit of when we last won the league.We have 12 cup finals and have to be up for every single one from the off,not flaffing about and only stirring into panicked life when we go a goal down.

 

[cookster]

How about a clean sheet, that would be a start..

Based on Chelsea's results this season they should get to 86 points

If we're setting targets, then we need 29 points from 12 games to give us a good chance. 9 wins, 2 draws, 1 defeat

It is doable if we can get some form and fluency back,our forwards stop misfiring and we finally have some luck with injuries.Given that we have Arsenal,Liverpool and the rags away it is going to be tough.

Yes. But we are capable of winning all our home games:

Fulham
Southampton
Sunderland
WBA
Villa
WHU

Win those and 3 aways from

Hull
Utd
Arsenal
Liverpool
Palace
Everton

and we have a good chance of being Champions
