I can't see us winning this one and I'm one of the most optimistic blues out there. A draw will be a good result its the most we can realistically hope for in my opinion. We beat them narrowly at our place and that was without Sturridge and obviously their home crowd who this time will be baying for Manc blood. Let's get this game out of the way and then we can win the rest, they will slip up in one of the rest of their games for sure.

Who against? You say we can only hope for a draw, but think they will slip up against someone else? Anyone would think we've not beat good teams away this season.

Team selection is so important. They will overload us high up the pitch so we have to be very strong in front of our defence. If Aguero is fit he starts - but we also have to play inform players so for me our team should be:
-------------------Hart
Zab Kompany Demichelis Cliche
--------------Garcia Fern
Silva -----------YaYa ----------- Jovetic
-----------------Aguero

Been watching the match at Goodison and it will be equally as hard to get anything there as well Both grounds are notoriously "graveyards" for us and we will find how good this City side really is. or should I say how much do the players want it, After watching Arsenal buckle today it angers me even more that we surrendered a point to them last week they have such a soft under belly Arsenal, and although two matches are not the same ,it worries me that last week it was us hanging on at the end,and it was us that were outplayed for long periods in the second half

Everton play at the same tempo and work rate against us we will struggle big time. A defeat next week at Anfield and it really will be as good as over.

The swamp was a graveyard for us at one time but now it is an easy 3 points.

Point taken but Liverpool and Everton are both having dream seasons

Liverpool should definitely be favorites going into this game...City for some strange reason look tired and heavy. The person carrying the team is Silva, without him City would be only chasing a top 4 place. Yaya looks like he needs a rest and Fernadinho looks like he might be carrying an injury.

Extremely important game so I just hope MP doesn't push the boys to hard during training because they look like they are in urgent need of a break especially the big man Yaya...

I would play Garcia at the back just to add extra protection and to give Fernandinho and Yaya a little less running to do. I would play either Edin or the Beast up front, but tell them to pressure Steven G every time he gets the ball because I think that's where Liverpool are Vulnerable. If you pressure Steven and he has a poor game, the rest will fall with him because his their inspiration and when his on his game it lifts all the other players and when his off his game, they seem to drop down with him...

A must win, but a drwa would be a good result
