They always look like they're having fun, which is great of course, but I'd love to see some serious faces on, concentrating on the managers tactics and strategy, working hard and focussed on the game-plan for a tricky game tomorrow (though probably thats what happens when the cameras are off!)
 
Have a funny feeling that we will be really fluent in passing and style and be up for it tomorrow, I can live in hope until I see the snail slow build up and a million sideway/back-passes but hey!


I want to see fight ,determination and passion from the players to finish strong and give us some very good performances and get top 3.

3-1 win :)
 
PELLEGRINI: “We’ll play a strong team against Norwich. Then we’ll decide about Kyiv. We’re not thinking about the next round.” #mcfc
PELLEGRINI: (On week) If we win next two in PL the pressure will be on others. If we can qualify in the UCL QFs that’s another achievement.”
PELLEGRINI: (On Aguero future) Sergio knows why. It’s different to talk in three or four years more, players change their minds.” #mcfc
PELLEGRINI: “Norwich don’t have too much to lose and they must win their points at home. We will find a difficult team tomorrow.” #mcfc
PELLEGRINI: “I’m just focusing on my job here and after that you never know where you’ll be next. In this moment I’m very quiet.” #mcfc
PELLEGRINI: “I’m thinking about Norwich and when I finish in May then I’ll think about my future.” #mcfc
 
4 midfielders out.

A Garcia to get a game maybe?
I hope so, whenever we play 2 in the middle away it against the big teams we can't control games. We all know Pellegrini though, he will probably play Nando and Dinho and then Silva Sterling Aguero Navas/Bony
 
Yaya being out isn't good. Our two worst performances this season were at Stoke and Liverpool when he didn't play.

Hope we can get our shape right tomorrow and get off to a good start.

We really shouldn't start Bony, he looks badly short of fitness, form and confidence and he looks horribly immobile.
 
Match Appointments

Jonathan Moss Assistants: A Halliday, S Burt Fourth Official: R Madley

As long as the kit man doesn't pack that navy blue monstrosity i reckon we'll win despite these cnuts.

Jon Moss gets yet another BT Sport early kickoff? The fix is in.
 
Why does Pellers always show his hand regarding injuries. Knowing that Yaya is out will be a big boost for Norwich knowing that Nasri, Delph and KDB are also injured. Norwich now have 24 hours at adapt their team and possibly play a different way. Personally I hope he plays Navas and Sterling wide with Silva just behind Aguero and Nando and Dinho shielding the back four.

I don't understand this either.

Toure missing is a big blow because he usually dominates these sides.
 
Big game for the Ferns, though Yaya is often criticised for his lack of tracking back, he is at least a big old lump to get around. Without him we'll have a front four that would make the severn dwarfs look intimidating.

Agree with the part about Pellers showing his hand. Disagree about selecting the 4 diddymen together though. It backfires everytime. They're just too lightweight. Shit and overweight though he unquestionably is, I'd chance a 4-4-2 tomorrow with Big Wilf up top and Navas on the bench
 
4141 please, not 4231 or 4411 again.

Aguero
Sterling Dinho Silva Navas
Fernando
Clichy Otamendi Kompany Sagna
Hart

Caballero, Zabaleta, Mangala, Kolarov, Garcia, Iheanacho, Bony​
 
I think he'll play a 4-4-2 with Bony.

Hart
Sagna
Kompany
Ota
kolarov
Fernando
Fernandinho
Silva
Sterling
Bony
AGuero

Something like that
