Pre Match Thread | Man City v West Ham

If we win and Chelsea and Arsenal draw, we really will be in the driving seat as far as the title is concerned.

I'm sure this has been asked because I'm clearly late to the table but what happened to the opposition view we used to get from rival forums? Used to enjoy reading those threads.

Disappointing to see so many of us hoping for Navas to be dropped.

He seems to be an easy target and I'm not sure why. Along with Sterling he's had a few poor misses this season, but for the most part he's performed better imo.

Silva, KDB, Navas for me.

Look I like Navas but I think we all know De Bruyne is better going forward and I think that's why a lot of fans want to see De Bruyne in. I don't see it as disappointing because a lot want to see that amazing front 4 finally play together.

i`ve seen lots of players over the years and there arent many ex city player that would walk into this fantastic team we have.

but barnes, tueart, and beagrie, i`d have any of these over jesus navas the trickless pony.

Is KDB really going to provide any width? From what I have seen so far (and I haven't seen much of him) he likes to be in the middle where the defenders and silva will be..

Let's get back to winning ways. On paper should be a win but west ham have proved how dangerous they are. Again we cannot afford to be complacent. Come on city!

I'm sure Kev will be fantastic for us but to say he is better going forward, he has yet to prove that with City and in the PL.

One of our problems last season was getting back to winning ways after a loss so today will go a long way in showing us how the team has improved in that regard. Hope Otamendi and De Bruyne will be given their full Debuts. Come on City!

Probably not as much as Navas no but it's about what he will do when he's on the ball. I'm a fan of Navas works really well for the team. However at home I would like to see how the front 4 of De Bruyne Silva Sterling and Aguero will do.

Good God! At least the professional man who picks the team doesn't think Navas is a 'trickless pony'.
