problem with City team is that they need someone who can lead all these egos. Individualy City is a really powerfull team but like a team they are like some newcomers who make basic mistakes in playground. I just don't get it how can you lose a game when at half you have great result with 2 goals advance. I think that Mancini is the weakest link. He should start with new tactic based more on team spirit, and putting out Balotelli guy with no attitude to team i punish every player who make mistakes, but eventualy Mancini should fix his own problems with game tactic. Hi has a good selection of players and if he is really good at his job he could (should) be in the game for the title.

Swansea i don't know so much but should be comfortable win for City like 2-0 or 3-0.

We lose a pre-season friendly in injury time and Mancini is now a weak link? Its a long campaign, have patience. He was god at the end of last season - if we can improve on 3rd place and a trophy by next May (which we will i believe) then we are still on target.
As for Swansea - we need to weather the early storm and then we ill rip em to pieces. 4-0 City, brace for Sergio.

Re: city v swansea match thread.

Thanks for your responses so far, good stuff. I notice that from this and the other matchday thread that most of you are predicting a relatively comfortable City win. Personally, I'm pretty sure that we won't just 'turn-up' - although the differences between our sides are pretty obvious. You lot would have to have quite an off day and we would have to play as well as we can and take any chance offered. One point I've picked up on is the response that we "shouldn't even be in the English Premier League. I would be really surprised if this was a common feeling.

Anyone else like to respond?? All feedback - even perceived as negative would be appreciated.

Thanks again

Contemplating buying an inflatable shaggable sheep from Afflecks to be a stereotypical twat.

Hahaha - well yeah it always amazes me how often we see/hear this reference. It's almost like the oppo fans have never encountered this stuff before...and think they are being offensive/original in some way.

...that reminds me of watching MOTD in the 70's/80's. Grandad would go over the road to buy some chips and we'd settle down in fromt of the Rediffusion telly for an hour of pure enjoyment. Different world on so many levels

Q: How long have you supported Manchester City and what first got you interested?

A: 20-odd years, were just the local/family club, have great...mental fans and as they say, it's a soap opera, but a good one ;) I remember going to a match, we were shit, had been relegated a few times and the matches were either boring or annoying, so we started taking blow up toys like sex dolls/paddling pools/chairs etc. This one game a guy took a big blow up dinosaur, and another took a big blowup frankenstein, so we pushed them towards eachother over the croud chanting "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!" and watched them bang into eachother for the match ;) that's when I knew I belonged... Lol

A: Erm, ehh......sorry ;) dont know youre team that well! hopefully that will change in a few months eh? I'll tell you next time ;)

Q: What’s your prediction for our match, goal scorers etc.

A: 2-1 to us (hopefully) Džeko, Balotelli and Leroy Leita?? ;) but good luck for the rest of the season! (untill we meet again!!) ;)

Q: Which team are your local and/or premiership rivals?

A: Take a guess ;)

Q: What league position do you think that you/we will achieve?

A: ...In a hard and stressfull line of business!! It's shit!! I've done a little bit of trainning and ref'd a few pub/works teams matches, it's one of the most difficult things I've ever done... I couldnt imagine doing it in a 50k seated stadium full of screaming mancs lol

Good luck for the season Swans, you've got it in you to stay up!!
