Because we're at home. You guys have lost zero at home but lost 5 on the road. It ain't a fluke. It's because teams play with so much more confidence, intensity and tempo when they have 50,000 home fans roaring them on, whilst the opposition will naturally feel intimidated by that. It happens in every match in the PL.
That's hopefully how things will be evened out a little bit, as I wouldn't fancy our chances at the Etihad stadium, at all.
That's all I was referring to when it comes to the psychological advantage though, but if we were to discuss other factors, then we're at the top of the form table, just came off a win against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and need a win to potentially reach the Champions League, so both teams will be equally fired up for this one, but we have the added advantage of home support and home soil.
FFS, I seem to remember we went to a stadium of 70,000 and came back 6-1 winners. I would think our players would be experienced in such things by now..You say you're not cocky but every statement you make reeks of cockiness..
It's a big game for both teams no doubt, and whatever the result i will be proud of what my team has achieved this season..and it will be an indicator of how explosive it is going to be next season..
