Pre Match Thread | Man City v West Ham

If it's the same thing that has troubled Silva, then it would have been prudent not to have risked further aggravation anyway.

Silva was obviously carrying an injury-didn't look fit the other night. Big blow.

 

[Hamann Pineapple]

Apparently Roberts is now on the bench

Oooo, every cloud

 

[Claytop]

I actually hate it when we're on TV and they show us warming up, I'm always waiting for someone to pull up!

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

FFS, hope it's just a precaution with David.

If we are 2 - 0 up say 60 mins gone... would you guys/girls bring on Roberts?

Alf Roberts?

 

[Sergio Picasso Aguero]

i'm not sure this won't help us. navas and sterling out wide has been our best, our fullbacks are totally protected and we win the midfield with them out wide

Exactly, De Bruyne will have more space to do his thing.

Obviously wasn't 100% but was going to start :S

 

[hackneyslim]

Alf Roberts?

No, mate, Julia.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Fuck who was the poster here who predicted injury?
He is witch:)

Roberts looked very impressive midweek for the EDS. Certainly is in a higher level that any other player on the pitch in that game and it is just a matter of time before he starts getting really involved with the first team. No sure about today but you never know.

Alf Roberts?

Audrey Roberts is a better finisher than Navas...

Another injury? What is going on? Almost half the team has picked up an injury (almost all of them minor) in the first month of the season.

And what is with these pre-match warm up injuries? Seems like there's one or two every year over the past few years.

 

[pudge]

As much as I like to see Roberts in the squad, I just wish it wasn't at Silva's expense.

Not exactly difficult with our recent luck in that regard.

 

[whp.blue]

does that mean Silva will miss the Sunderland game?

 

[buckshot]

My guess is that he's not hurt but Navas threatened to reveal the photos he has of MP so David took one for his boss.

What is going on? kun and David get kicked around the pitch and as a result (and lack of protection from refs) pick up injuries.

Reckon they're brought back a bit too soon rather than it being an injury during warm up.

Me crystal ball's on charge at the minute
