Looking forward to Wigan, never thought I would say that.

[MCFC 4 EVER]

I suspect we'll be resting a few players before the Napoli game, especially those playing in the midweek internationals. Not sure that our English players will get a game apart from Hart.

Might be something like:

Hart

Richards
Savic
Lescott
Clichy

Barry
Milner

Johnson
Yaya
Baloteli

Tevez

With Kompany, De Jong, Silva, Nasri, Aguero & Dzeko on the bench

Pretty much agree with that mate, but if Lescott plays for England I would swap him for Vinny
What a team we have! I would never have thought we would have had a team like we do now back when Wigan beat us 4-0!
I am looking forward to every game we play this year

cant wait for this 1, great chance for us to keep our 100% record going, who are the rags playing?

I know what you're saying, seems like the next game can't come quickly enough these days. Can't wait for the cup games to start we really need them to make sure everyone is getting enough playing time.And you're right it won't be easy, Wigan playing some decent stuff this season and our last two home performances against them were poor even if we did win, hopefully the players don't feel they can take it easy after blowing Spurs away.

Another advantage to having two decent players per position is that they know they can't afford to relax and put in a poor performance because it means they might be out of the team for the next few games.

I think we'll see a few changes for the Wigan game too, so the players that come in will want to show they should be in the team for the Napoli match too, no-one will want to miss that. Can you imagine how demoralising it will be for Wigan when Martinez says, "Well the good news is that they're resting Aguero, Dzeko and Nasri, the bad news is that Tevez, Balotelli and Johnson are playing instead."

 

[The game 161]

Is this a good place to state how much I hate international weekends? I know it pops up a lot but they are a pain in the fucking arse. I hope all our players come back safe and sound.

Could hurt my fantasy team if these guys get hurt lol

if we get first goal its going to be a goal fest no offence wigan but 4-0 / 5-0

 

[CITY FOR LIFE]

Narrow 1-0 win, just wait and see!

All wins = 3 pts, we are not going to win them all at a canter, but a few each game would be nice :)

Narrow 1-0 win, just wait and see!

That'd do. We're not going to win every game by 3 or 4.

Not sure, but I think it might be Bolton away.
