Match Thread: Manchester City F.C v Leicester City

[Andouble]

just read that in Vassell's entire career - not just his City career - the team has won EVERY single game in which he has scored. That's remarkable.

Not true he scored vs west ham a couple of season ago and it ended 1-1.

maybe the stat then was he's never been on the losing side when scoring. My apologies.

Doh! You should go into politics.

Different sort of game this one , Leicester will be up for it and it will not be easy . But I still think we should win relatively comfortably

----------------Hart-----------------
Zaba-----Vinnie------Lescott------Kolarov
---------------NDJ-----------------
-------Vieira---------Milner-----------
SWP-------------------------AJ
--------------Jo------------

Thats what I think the team would be , but if it were up to me I would have Tevez in there . But I would be happy with that team . 3-1 City AJ x 2 and Jo

Should be no bother for Manchester City in this fixture.

If you are bored before the match then you can tune into a world-class Scottish Cup tie. Watch the mighty Dundee take on Motherwell at Dens Park. Kick off 13:15 on Sky Sports one.

Important we win. Think we should also experiment a little and rest some players where able.

I'd go for:

Given (*)
Richards Boateng Kompany Kolarov
SWP (*) Vieira Milner Johnson
Guidetti Jo

Subs:
Hart, Zabaleta, Tevez, Boyata, Lescott, Assulin, De Jong

* unless we don't want him cup-tied
Like to see Boyata and Assulin have a run out too.

I think Bobby will play Tevez tomorrow, he played against Arsenal but we have Leicester and then Wolves is a week away, plenty of downtime between games this week

----------------Hart-----------------
Richards----Komps-----Boateng-----Kolarov
---------------NDJ-----------------
-------Vieira---------Barry-----------
AJ-------------------------SWP/Milner
--------------Tevez------------

Thats the team i think we'll see.

Got to turn out a fairly strong side i.m.o. (WBA revisited would just be too big a risk) No way we can even consider playing Boyatta or Given (except in emergency) in this one.

---------------------------Hart,-----------------------
Richards,-- Kompany,-- Lescott,-- Zabaleta,
--------Barry,-- Vieira,-- Yaya Toure,----------
------------------Balotelli, (or Jo,)-----------------
--------Milner--------------------A. Johnson------

Subs:
Given, Tevez, Boateng, De-Jong,
Bridge, Wright-Phillips, Nimely

Am not expecting Super Mario to be fit enough to play. We should persevere with the Jo-Tevez partnership upfront.
